00:00Small forward from Ilocos Sur, number 13, Marshall Lassiter.
00:06Shooting guard from Aguilar City, Pampanga, number 2, Steven Hawes.
00:16Yeah, great position down low there. Not much he can do when Tupac has that position.
00:20Well, that's also a nice back pick there on the part of Marshall Lassiter.
00:23That's the kind of play that San Miguel always employs.
00:31High second.
00:37Here's Kahili.
00:41Three ball on the way, and he drills it!
00:44That's big, because that's already a breakdown on the set-off and subterra firma.
00:48And that outside shot would definitely help.
00:528-4 right now in favor of the Jeep.
00:56Ross to go to Marshall.
00:59And a strip there by Teta Firma. Here comes Chong Son.
01:03Over to Holt.
01:05Pull-up for three. Got it!
01:07Oh, wow!
01:09Eight seconds in the shot clock here for the Birmingham FedEx.
01:12Gets rid of the defense, and it's stolen by Holt!
01:15Steven Holt goes all the way to the basket for the layup!
01:20The second game of this knockout showdown.
01:24Steven Holt gets another steal all the way to the cup for two.
01:28Over to CJ. Here's Ross.
01:32Troiano, the scoop shot's no good.
01:35Here comes Teta Firma on the break.
01:37WAMI has been quiet so far in this game.
01:39As I say that, he shows off his handles and gets to the cup for two!
01:44Wow!
01:46What a way to just, like, go in a pirouette or put the ball behind the back
01:51and just literally destroy, you know, that set defense of San Miguel.
01:57I mean, I knew WAMI had a bag.
01:59But that was special.
02:01Wow!
02:02You know, that's total confidence on the part of WAMI just to go in there
02:07for a foul set he would have.
02:08But look at this. Look at his beauty here, Gino.
02:11He's behind the back. He's going ahead. See, it just goes straight to the hole.
02:22Troiano!
02:24Turning the negative into positive right there.
02:27One point game in favor of Teta Firma.
02:33Cariño.
02:37Back to WAMI.
02:38Chomps on.
02:40Gets the basket and puts it in!
02:42What's with WAMI? He doesn't really care if there's, like, a 6'10 guy waiting in the paint.
02:47Just so, you know, razor-sharp focus here by all these players.
02:52Fajardo, once again, great position down low.
02:55Over to Kahilig.
03:00Dangalang.
03:01Seven seconds to shoot.
03:02Javi.
03:03Baseline jumper's wet!
03:05And then here's that baseline jumper right there by Javi Gomez de Leano.
03:08That would really live up to the challenges of having their bench also provide the firepower.
03:14Wild shot there coming from Jericho Cruz.
03:16Cleared by Sangdala.
03:18Jericho Cruz not quitting on the play.
03:20Goes to the reverse and scores!
03:22He's a very dangerous player.
03:24I've seen Jericho, you know, to be really so focused.
03:27And one of the hard-fighting, hard-playing players of the Bureau.
03:33Holt.
03:34Here's Sangdala.
03:35Gets rid of the defense of Chudmar.
03:37Over to Holt.
03:38Corner three on the way.
03:39Got it!
03:41Malolino.
03:43Jello still with it.
03:44Jello.
03:45Turnover here by the Whiters.
03:47Here comes CJ Perez on the break.
03:49All the way to the cup for two!
03:52Here's WAMI.
03:56Chongsun.
03:59Chongsun.
04:00Forces the shot.
04:02Chongsun.
04:03Forces the shot.
04:04Looking for the foul.
04:05Not going to get it.
04:08Romeo lets it fly.
04:09Three ball on the way!
04:10Sweat!
04:13CJ.
04:17CJ still with it.
04:18Kicks it out to Lassiter.
04:19Three ball is good!
04:22Now with WAMI.
04:24Ten seconds in the shot clock.
04:26Chongsun.
04:28Elbow jumper on the way.
04:29Over Jermar is good!
04:32Jerape.
04:33He doesn't really fear anyone.
04:34Even a 6'10 defender in front of him.
04:37Chongsun now with 13 points in the game.
04:4029 in game number one.
04:41Right.
04:43Terence.
04:45Somehow makes his way to the basket and puts it in.
04:48Dangerous.
04:50Now he's feeling it and it's just oozing with confidence.
04:54Ten points in the game for the bro.
04:58WAMI.
05:00Over to Kahili.
05:01Three ball from the top of the key.
05:02Got it!
05:04Definitely has already surpassed that dismal showing in game number one.
05:09And this is the kind of performance that Terence Romeo is known for.
05:14Done for the game.
05:15Let's see.
05:16Let's see what happens today.
05:17Well they need Ramos.
05:18They need each and every warm body on that bench.
05:21CJ misses.
05:22Jermar turns it negative into positive.
05:27Perez.
05:29Will attack.
05:30Perez in traffic.
05:31Over to Jermar.
05:32Puts it in.
05:33Because this is something that will happen.
05:34I mean the three point shot, yes, they have been very good at it.
05:37But San Miguel is again, if they're missing from the outside, they have an in.
05:42This is what's going to drive you crazy if I was Tera Firma.
05:45Because now, what would you do?
05:47Would you help out on guys driving to the basket?
05:49And another turnover here for Tera Firma.
05:53Getting from the outside.
05:55See Ross once again with a defense right there.
05:57And a layup.
05:58And this best move of the game is brought to you by...
06:01Using the high suction screen.
06:03Back the ball.
06:04Here's Wammy.
06:05Six seconds in the shot clock.
06:07Chonks on all the way.
06:08Puts it in.
06:09Plus the foul.
06:10He is not giving up.
06:12Coach John Cardell, as Pauline reported it, was looking for opportunity.
06:17Lassiter.
06:18Puts it on the floor.
06:20Over to Jermar.
06:21Easy basket down low for the Kraken.
06:23That's really super experienced there in the part of...
06:27You cannot show frustration here, Gino.
06:29I mean, that's the worst thing that can happen to any of the Tera Firma players.
06:35Just turn on the heat and put more pressure on you.
06:39Assists.
06:4015 for San Miguel.
06:4110 for Tera Firma.
06:43Troiano gets away.
06:44Puts it in.
06:46Very little resistance now from the White Shirts.
06:48Because a lot of the experience is now unfolding.
06:52And, of course, San Miguel is just leading the way.
06:56Here's Holt.
06:58Kamson in the game for the first time.
07:00Let's it fly long.
07:01Three is money!
07:04Well, he could be a magic punot, as they call him.
07:07And Coach John would hope that Kamson can just bring in the much needed relief in terms of offense.
07:14Well, they haven't had much help outside of their big four.
07:20CJ gets away.
07:21Puts it in.
07:22Tera Firma is now missing that kind of defensive intensity that we've seen in the first quarter of this game.
07:29Ramos was injured there in the third quarter.
07:34That's when things started to change, Gino.
07:37The scoop!
07:38Oh, look at that shot there by Isaac Goh!
07:41You have to continue fighting.
07:43There's nothing really much you can do but just move on to the next play.
07:46That's right.
07:48As we approach the three-minute mark here of Q3.
07:54San Miguel enjoying a 71-58 advantage.
07:58Troiano stopped there by Javi.
08:00The second attempt is good.
08:01Yeah, he was pissed after the first game.
08:05And he's showing it here.
08:07As Stephen Holt answers on the other end.
08:10You just have to stay positive all throughout.
08:12A couple of misses there for Tera Firma.
08:15Here's San Miguel under attack.
08:16Romeo stopped by Isaac Goh.
08:18You've got to let him ease.
08:21Terence thought that he got by Isaac.
08:26Looking for a teammate.
08:27Sends it over to Holt.
08:30Back to Kahilig.
08:31Puts it on the floor.
08:32Drives by Junmar.
08:33Gets away!
08:34Puts it in!
08:36There it is once again, Eric.
08:37They're hunting Junmar in the perimeter.
08:41You know, I really admire Tera Firma for really executing that game plan well.
08:48We've seen a lot of those times when they would always attack Junmar.
08:52But Junmar said, you attack me on one end, I'll take advantage of you on the other.
08:56I mean, that's pure dominance for you.
08:59I mean, they're seeing some challenges.
09:03They want to make Junmar work on defense.
09:07But we're really seeing that Junmar can really do it for 48 minutes.
09:11You can bet that he'll be working extra hard to get that recognition.
09:14G9 coach Eric.
09:15Thank you very much for that report, Poline.
09:19As Junmar Fajardo scores down low once again.
09:22Let's take a look at this once again.
09:25Junmar.
09:28Could have been...
09:29Oh, right there.
09:31You know, after that...
09:33He's got Wami on him.
09:34They're going to try and go back to Junmar.
09:37Fajardo can't get it to him.
09:38He spins, puts it up.
09:39Tough shot.
09:40Can't finish.
09:41Battle for the rebound and hands off Javi.
09:43Javi against Ross.
09:44Javi all the way to the cup for two.
09:47He's a great finisher on that fast break.
09:49He's got so much control.
09:51Especially when he puts the ball on the floor.
09:55Ross.
09:59Terence.
10:01Against Holt.
10:02Against Holt.
10:06Terence picked up his dribble.
10:07Looking for a teammate.
10:08Sends it over to Gunn.
10:09Back to Ross.
10:10Back to Terence, I should say.
10:15Using the Kahelig screen.
10:17Chongsong.
10:18Back to Kahelig.
10:19Open three on the way.
10:20Got it!
10:23You gotta admire Terrafirma.
10:25They're not abandoning their strength, which is their three-point shooting.
10:28Despite all the misses and all the frustrations coming out of their offense,
10:31they're still taking those shots.
10:33And that's how you should really play it.
10:35Because that's what really has brought you to this stage right now.
10:39Terence.
10:40Wants to answer on the other end.
10:42And does!
10:45Oh, great game here from the bro.
10:48Very difficult to stop.
10:49Because, you know, when San Miguel gets into that in-and-out offensive set,
10:54you just don't know who you're gonna guard now.
10:57Chongsong.
10:58The pass is intercepted here.
11:00Jennifer Cruz on the break.
11:01They got numbers.
11:02Romeo all the way for two!
11:05Threatening to pull away here.
11:09Romeo.
11:11Doing a lot of damage here in Q4.
11:17They're being very patient in this offensive set.
11:19They go down to Juma with three seconds on the shot clock.
11:21Cruz!
11:22Oh, where did that come from?
11:25But, you know, as in any team, you definitely need extra firepower
11:30from the guys coming off the bench.
11:32And this is what San Miguel has really been showing in this game.
11:35Now, Jean-Marc Fajardo punishing Ted Afirma here in the second half as Holt
11:42answers on the other end.
11:44The Kraken is the important.
11:46And he actually exceeds the height of the importance of the commissioner's cup.
11:51Because he's 6'10".
11:54Javi.
11:55Going all the way to the basket.
11:59Fajardo.
12:01Seven seconds on the shot clock.
12:03Juma makes his move.
12:05Double team.
12:06And puts it in.
12:09Very hard.
12:10I mean, even guys in Europe or in Latin America
12:17defending Juma on the post.
12:19When he backs you down, you will back down.
12:21That's right.
12:22I haven't seen anyone who can hold down Juma.
12:25And Juma will not make any progress when he backs down.
12:28Javi for three.
12:29Got it.
12:32Of course, with his emotions.
12:33And again, he's not going to back down.
12:35Same thing with Magic Wammy.
12:40Troiano.
12:41Three ball on the way.
12:44What is it with these guys, Gino?
12:47They come from a bad game in game one.
12:50Well, I mean, they're such quality players.
12:52You can't have Don Troiano have two bad games in a row.
12:55Yeah, it just shows what kind of players San Miguel would have.
12:59Dancing with Javi.
13:01Terence, still with it.
13:02Long two on the way.
13:03He's way off.
13:04See Ross.
13:05No good.
13:06But who else?
13:07Jude Marfajardo turning the negative into positive.
13:14Fault misfires.
13:15That's how he probably, you know,
13:17that's the kind of effort that he has to produce to defend Wammy Chobus.
13:20That's right.
13:21And chase him all over the floor.
13:24Don Troiano, once again, scoring down there.
13:28As Cariño runs out of space over to Javi.
13:32Javi, tough shot, puts it in.
13:36Still battling out there.
13:38They're trying to post up Troiano.
13:41Decides to take it.
13:43Stopped there by Javi.
13:45But Don Troiano.
13:47Isaac, because it went between the legs of Isaac.
13:50It didn't even hit him.
13:53Javi.
13:54Wow.
13:55Tough shot there.
13:58He got to give it to this guy.
13:59He was really consistent with his performance with at least 15 points a game.
14:04I thought that he has eclipsed already that average.
14:07He may not be a starter, but he's one of the top four most important players on Terrapir.
14:12Oh, yes.
14:13From him, of course, you've seen Isaac.
14:15You've seen, of course, Magic, Chongsun, and Stephen Ho.
14:22And if Cariño can develop to who we think he can be,
14:28maybe that could be congratulating the other team.
14:32I mean, Terrapir needs to be congratulated here.
14:34Oh, yes.
14:35They made history making it into the playoffs, winning their first quarterfinal match ever.
