00:00The shots that you shoot in that short corner, the corner shots,
00:04it's automatic.
00:06It's a good percentage.
00:09And Coach Alan Ricardo, in his teams,
00:11he always has that designated shooter.
00:14Like I mentioned, Jovel Baliling was that guy
00:17for their championship squads in the Latrans Squires.
00:20So now it's a different situation, different scenario
00:23here with the Knights.
00:26Now in San Sebastian, a high-octane backcourt of Coach Arvin Bonleon.
00:31Ultra green light for Are and Escobedo
00:35who have a combined 24 points right now, Coach Raul.
00:38I feel like in the last part of the 2nd quarter,
00:41they were able to reduce the pressure
00:44because it looks like they're comfortable.
00:46Are and Escobedo are comfortable with the pressure of the Knights.
00:50It's like playground basketball.
00:56Just a pure instinct.
01:00Are, whoa!
01:02Missing his easiest attempt of the game.
01:07We also talked about Kevin Santos.
01:09He hasn't gotten his rhythm yet.
01:10And I think there's a little bit of frustration setting in.
01:13Maybe in the defense of San Sebastian,
01:17it's a bit of a nuisance.
01:18Maybe Santos is getting a bit of a nuisance.
01:22Kevin's attack has a huge wingspan as well.
01:28But like you said, he's a hard worker,
01:30he's a bit of a nuisance, he's active.
01:32They're very aggressive.
01:34Santos, touch pass again.
01:37San Sebastian is running again.
01:40Oh, Escobedo switching hands.
01:47San Sebastian's aggressiveness is very high.
01:51I hope they can sustain this.
01:53Last year, they had a hard time sustaining
01:58until the 4th quarter.
02:00Of course, the energy you're giving,
02:02the gasoline you're giving there,
02:04when you reach the 4th quarter,
02:06maybe it's all gone.
02:08Hopefully, they can still find it,
02:10their rotation can still be added
02:12so that their gas is getting lower and lower.
02:15DJ Filibrico, 4th-year player for San Sebastian,
02:21knocks in the free throw.
02:27And it's going to be very hard, Coach Ralph,
02:30to run out of gas against a team like Natran.
02:34Yes, they're 5-5.
02:36Their rotation is very long.
02:38Jimboy, what a difficult angle.
02:42Almost got it down though.
02:44Gabbat, on the move, Gabbat.
02:47Ball to Jimboy, to Monje.
02:50Nice pass, nice execution on the pass.
02:52Big gun.
02:57That's the 6th point of Monje.
02:59And Are, with a response.
03:02He's so fast.
03:03He just finished shooting here,
03:05and he's already coming back.
03:07Where's Sebastian?
03:09That's 16 points for Are.
03:14He's really hot today.
03:16And Escobedo is still fighting.
03:19Are is asking for the ball.
03:21Are got the ball.
03:26That's when you haven't even held the ball,
03:28and they're already asking for it.
03:30It's like Are doesn't want to give it to Raymart.
03:33Are was pleading for that ball.
03:36That's only the 3rd deadlock for the game.
03:39Wow, to Monje.
03:42Monje, with the finish plus the foul.
03:48The challenge for Letran is that
03:50the ball needs to reach the post.
03:54Their inside points are so low.
03:56Actually, San Sebastian is ahead
03:58in their inside points.
04:00To think that their height is so good.
04:02Their height advantage.
04:05And 8 field goals in the paint
04:07from Are and Escobedo.
04:12Two of the smallest players
04:14on the floor.
04:223-point play completed
04:24by Kobe Monje.
04:29Back to 4, the lead
04:31of the Letranistas.
04:33High post, zoom action.
04:39Are, what a beautiful pass.
04:41Sometimes, Are can be watched
04:43for what he's doing
04:45because the defense is focused on him.
04:48But Are said,
04:50I'm not only good at shooting.
04:52Escobedo with a steal.
04:55Are with a rebound.
04:58Are caught by the inside pass.
05:00San Sebastian takes the lead.
05:06He can shoot, he can pass.
05:11And that was
05:13San Sebastian's
05:15first lead
05:17in a while.
05:19As Estrada calmly
05:21gives the lead back to Letran.
05:23Jim Boy,
05:25you thought he was just a rookie
05:27but he's already composed.
05:29Actually, he's not a counter anymore.
05:31He's really a rookie.
05:33So far.
05:35That is, well,
05:37that's his range
05:39Are and Escobedo have that
05:41RK Lagan range.
05:44That's a nice steal from
05:46Kevin Santos.
05:48Maybe that's an instruction for them
05:50that they really need to go to
05:52the paint.
05:56That's a weak defense.
05:58And here, he's asking
06:00for the ball.
06:04Ray Parth is an extra pass.
06:07And what a pass.
06:09Paying at a shovel pass
06:11to DJ Filiprico.
06:18They're playing zone right now.
06:20San Sebastian's playing zone right now.
06:22Estrada gives it to Santos.
06:24Santos will try outside.
06:26Kevin Santos for three.
06:28He has three points.
06:31And Coach Ralph,
06:33that's only the second
06:35triple of Kevin Santos' career
06:37here in the NCAA.
06:39Maybe he worked on that offseason.
06:43Last year, he was
06:45one for three
06:47for the entire season, 1999.
06:52Filiprico.
06:54Nice defense by
06:56Danny Hernandez.
06:58Substitution.
07:01And
07:03the timeout is called
07:05by Coach Arvin Bon-Leon.
07:07We'll be back here on GTV
07:09at Heart of Asia.
07:21Kevin Santos with his
07:23third jam of the day.
07:25Wow.
07:27How about this?
07:29Down the middle once again.
07:31It's different when
07:33Kevin Santos has a chance.
07:37Attacking.
07:39Destroying
07:41the rim.
07:45Our live coverage
07:47of NCAA Season 100
07:49continues. And we have an update
07:51at courtside from Flo Del Agua.
07:53Coming into
07:55the second half, San Sebastian's huddle
07:57focused on doubling that defense
07:59especially in the rebound department.
08:01In the first half, they only had
08:03nine rebounds compared to
08:05Latrans' 21. And it's not surprising
08:07as team captain T.J.
08:09Filiprico reveals that many
08:11are missing from their team. And Bigman
08:13forcing taller players like
08:15him who originally plays 1-3
08:17to fill those positions
08:19of 4-5. Assistant coach
08:21Raizel Castro also shared
08:23that the game is already tied even though
08:26they are ahead. What more if
08:28we double the defense of the opponent?
08:30Thank you very much Flo
08:32for those updates.
08:34Definitely interesting points
08:36for both sides.
08:40And now, Latrans leading
08:4262-58.
08:44Santos, catch and shoot from the elbow.
08:48San Sebastian is still continuing
08:50their zone. They are ready
08:52to attack in the past week. That's the beauty
08:54of Escobedo.
08:56He's just enjoying
08:58what he's doing.
09:00Catch the ball and run.
09:02If that's what's on your offense's mind,
09:04Escobedo, Are,
09:06it's scary.
09:08If you follow
09:10the speed, you'll take advantage of them.
09:12Deok Wahaw.
09:18The ball will stay here
09:20in Latrans.
09:24One more foul
09:26and San Sebastian will get a free throw
09:28for Latrans.
09:32This is very similar
09:34to Raymart Escobedo.
09:36And
09:38former San Sebastian stag
09:40approves Ichi Altamirano.
09:44He's here in the venue.
09:46He's not in the venue right now
09:48but he's watching
09:50Titing Manalili. He's playing right now.
09:53He's rehabbing
09:55and recovering.
09:57Idol, thank you very much
09:59for watching and good luck.
10:01A lot of people are waiting for Titing Manalili.
10:07They say that Manalili is
10:09like the next LA Tenorio.
10:11He's big.
10:13He's as big as
10:15the player comparison.
10:17So all the best
10:19to Titing Manalili.
10:21Waiting in the wings for the
10:23Letra Rista.
10:25As you can see,
10:27Pink is attacking a lot of times.
10:29There will be a high-low action
10:31as they go down.
10:33Knowing that San Sebastian
10:35will get a penalty.
10:394 minutes and 47 seconds
10:41remaining here
10:43in the third.
10:51Paeng is getting nervous.
10:53This is the heavyweight, Coach Ralph.
10:55This is Paeng Are's fourth foul.
10:57He's having a hard time.
10:59They probably won't be able to
11:01gamble Paeng right now.
11:07This is the question.
11:09Bench points.
11:11They should be able to get bench points.
11:13And who?
11:15They should be able to establish San Sebastian.
11:17Coach Are is still on the floor.
11:19I don't know if they will be able to attack
11:21Paeng Are.
11:23That's why Are ran to the coaching staff.
11:27Are is running.
11:29Paeng Are with a finish.
11:31That's a good decision from the coaching staff.
11:33They made the right gamble.
11:35Paeng Are is betting
11:37on himself.
11:39If they're playing zone,
11:41it's hard to avoid
11:43that Paeng should be disciplined.
11:46Galoy.
11:52That's why it's a penalty.
11:54He's not in the act of shooting,
11:56but it's a penalty.
12:04Fast-paced action.
12:06Paeng Are playing with four personal fouls.
12:10Coach Arvin Bon-Leon
12:12made sure that Paeng is out.
12:14Paeng is out.
12:16Even though Paeng made a thumbs up,
12:18he said, Coach, it's okay.
12:22That's the challenge of a coach.
12:24Will you gamble or not?
12:26But Paeng has a big effect.
12:28How many points does Paeng make?
12:3016 points? 18 points?
12:32Coach Paeng Are has 20 points already.
12:36That's what will be lost to them.
12:40The problem is that the time is still long.
12:43We still have 4 minutes to the 3rd.
12:45And 10 minutes to the 4th.
12:47So it's really up to Paeng.
12:51So far, this opening weekend,
12:53the best statistical performance
12:55was the monster double-double
12:57of Alan Liwag
12:59of the Benil Blazers yesterday.
13:0123 points, 18 rebounds.
13:03That's really impressive.
13:05In his Benil Blazers debut.
13:09Paeng Are with a chance to eclipse
13:11the 23-point output
13:13of Alan Liwag, if ever.
13:23Baroga.
13:33We can see the pressure of Letran.
13:35They turned it around.
13:37They found out that Paeng Are is out.
13:39They're still out of the penalty area.
13:43Here are the Sebastinos.
13:45They're also under pressure.
13:47Polo Gabat.
13:53Gabat brothers, both of them.
13:55Rex and Polo are on the floor.
13:5717-7.
13:59Those are their jersey numbers.
14:09Santos.
14:11Estrada.
14:13Chip Boy.
14:15Step back for three.
14:17Monje. Offensive rebound.
14:19Monje.
14:21Estrada.
14:23Fit in.
14:25And he steps on the line.
14:27They have a lot of opportunities there.
14:29But at least,
14:31the aggressiveness of Letran
14:33is there.
14:36They have a lot of opportunities there.
14:38But at least,
14:40the aggressiveness of Letran is there.
14:42They have a height advantage there
14:44when it comes to paint.
15:0066-62.
15:02The game is tied.
15:10At the start, we thought
15:12Letran would dominate
15:14with their line-up
15:16and experience.
15:18But we saw the whole game.
15:20They really changed.
15:28Golden Stacks are running.
15:31Blocked by Santos.
15:35Estrada.
15:37Monje.
15:39It was blocked, but a foul was called.
15:41They're in penalties,
15:43so another free throw.
15:49Looks like there's a technical foul.
16:01San Sebastián.
16:11San Sebastián is in penalties again, coach.
16:15Every foul
16:17will go to the free throw line
16:19of Letran.
16:21Letran can still be
16:23aggressive
16:25because they only have
16:27one team foul.
16:29Paeng Are knows that
16:31they're confident
16:33that they can put pressure
16:35on the backcourt.
16:41San Sebastián called a technical foul
16:43for improper bench decorum.
16:45That's why Monje
16:47is shooting these technical
16:49free throws right now.
16:51A more
16:53composed and mature
16:55Kobe Monje.
16:5712 points for Kobe.
17:03There's another one
17:05because
17:07these two free throws are coming from the penalty.
17:13Kobe Monje last season
17:15averaging 11.4
17:17points per game
17:19was third in the team
17:21and scoring behind
17:23Kurt Raison and Deo Quahog.
17:27They're under pressure again.
17:37There should be
17:39no going back.
17:43Wild shot.
17:45Risho off the glass.
17:47They're having a hard time
17:49with the pressure Letran is giving.
17:52The challenge
17:54for Letran
17:56right now is
17:58to be organized.
18:00They should take their fouls
18:02and go to the bottom.
18:04Slowly,
18:06there will be a separation.
18:12Alan Ricardo calls
18:14a timeout. His team is up 69-62.
18:22De Los Santos
18:24once again
18:26navigating.
18:28Guillaume
18:30flips it up
18:32and in plus the foul.
18:34Seven points now for Guillaume
18:36and a chance to add on
18:38to his total.
18:40In control
18:42even in full speed, JV.
18:44Exactly, Martin. In control
18:46every time, every
18:48possession.
18:50As always,
18:52we have our
18:54distinguished gentleman
18:56from the NCAA Management Committee
18:58from Colegio de San Juan de Letran,
19:00Father Vic Calvo.
19:04Pleased with what
19:06his squad is showing on the floor right now.
19:08From EAC,
19:10Dr. Lorenzo Lorenzo
19:12will play for EAC
19:14after this match.
19:16And there you see
19:19Coach Alan Ricardo.
19:21And that's
19:23Sir Frank Gusi
19:25two-feet ropes
19:27for Malcolm Rep
19:29of the University of Perpetual Health System, Delta.
19:35Simone, she already has
19:3714 points in this game
19:39and 10 points this quarter.
19:41I feel like she's the one
19:43making the difference in this quarter.
19:45Montesilio
19:47seeks the free throw.
20:01Oh, an offensive
20:03foul there.
20:05Moving pick.
20:11Hit Paroga.
20:13Hit Paroga.
20:15Right now,
20:17he's probably thinking
20:19if he's going to leave
20:21Paeng on the bench
20:23because we can see
20:25the big difference
20:27when he's on the bench.
20:29In that replay, it's clear
20:31that Paroga moved.
20:33It's a moving screen.
20:37The biggest lead now
20:39of the game for Letran.
20:42And
20:44Monge.
20:46Now, he proves
20:48his point total to 16.
20:50And that's
20:5212 points now in this quarter, Coach.
20:54They're really attacking
20:56Paeng.
21:00There should be an adjustment
21:02from Sebastian.
21:08If you're Letran,
21:10it's okay.
21:16Federico Escobedo
21:18is returning to the game.
21:20Look at the moves
21:22of Montesilio finding
21:24Kobe Monge.
21:32Gabat.
21:40Good adjustment
21:42from Coach Allen.
21:44Good adjustment
21:46from Coach Allen.
21:56Estrada and Gabat.
21:59Gabat.
22:09What's good about Letran is
22:11that they're aggressive
22:13but their foul was limited
22:15to 2 team fouls.
22:19So up to the last part of the third,
22:21they can still be aggressive.
22:23But this time,
22:25they banned him from the zone.
22:27Again.
22:33Escobedo, wild shot.
22:35Knights are running.
22:45Under a minute to play here
22:47in the third, Montesilio.
22:49Montesilio.
22:51Monge
22:53for 3.
22:55Good shot from Monge.
22:59Federico
23:01draws a foul.
23:03Monge's defense was good
23:05but his hand was a bit low.
23:11Nice challenge.
23:13There.
23:15There's the foul.
23:21That's what coaches always teach.
23:24Every time you challenge,
23:26just go straight up.
23:28Don't create contact.
23:30Just go straight up.
23:381 for 2
23:40for TJ Federico.
23:46Just saw Coach Arvin Bond
23:48and San Sebastian
23:50alumnus.
23:52Teammate of the Slasher,
23:54Rodney Santos.
24:00Jumawas for 3.
24:02Goh with the board.
24:04Back to James.
24:08And a foul called.
24:10Even if you say Jumawas missed the tier,
24:12it's a clean shot.
24:14It's a high percentage shot.
24:16He needs to get it.
24:18Letran is doing a good job this quarter.
24:21It looks like James
24:23is being pushed, Coach.
24:25He's stomping on his foot.
24:29The free throw was a waste.
24:31You can watch it later.
24:35Dimaano is excited
24:37to get in the game.
24:39And Delfino
24:41also trying to
24:43check in.
24:47And there it is.
24:49We've been waiting for him for a while.
24:51Joviel Baliling.
24:55From the Letran Squires
24:57Championship Squad,
24:59the designated shooter
25:01is making his
25:03Letran Knights debut.
25:05You can't miss him with that jersey number 91.
25:09His number is beautiful.
25:11That number is familiar to Dennis Rodman.
25:13But Baliling is familiar with his three points.
25:15So,
25:17for the Letran Squires Championship Squad,
25:19he shot 34.6%
25:21from
25:23beyond the arc.
25:29This is the biggest lead
25:31of Letran. 75-63.
25:3312-point lead.
25:35Let's see if
25:38he can make it.
25:44Baliling is still a bit cold.
25:46It's still a steal for Letran.
25:50Good thing there was no foul.
25:54Letran is already
25:56on the penalty.
26:00Baliling has to shoot.
26:04And a big
26:06third period
26:08for the Letran Knights,
26:10anchored by the 14 points
26:12scored in the period by
26:14Kobe Monge.
26:16And the Knights enter the fourth quarter
26:18with a 75-63
26:20advantage over the San Sebastian Golden Stags.
