00:00Somebody on the Letran crowd, telling him to calm down.
00:05Yes, and you know, if you look at it, those fans are not able to help in terms of energy.
00:12You know, I remember seeing alumni from our school,
00:18they were really shouting that their veins were coming out of their necks.
00:22And you know, sometimes that's all you need.
00:24You know, for that extra boost that you can get in that game.
00:28Sohonya.
00:31Sohonya!
00:33Sanvera badly needs him.
00:37Brian Sohonya has been on a dry spell.
00:40That's just his first field goal of the game, Prince.
00:44Yes, and again, I'll just go back.
00:46The big guys are the ones dominating this game,
00:49and sometimes all you have to do is, you know, shuffle things up.
00:53Estrada.
00:54In and out on that shot.
00:56Make sure to limit Letran with one shot and get a stop.
01:01Go back for another offense.
01:05Sohonya.
01:06Oh, he almost got that one.
01:08That was a good move.
01:09Brian let go of the ball there.
01:11Maybe he was surprised.
01:12Oh, I think I opened it too much.
01:15Letran has been scoreless in over four minutes though.
01:21Wow.
01:23And that's a foul on Sohonya.
01:26Go, go, go!
01:30Go, go, go!
01:32That's his second personal foul.
01:35First team foul for Romero Wallace.
01:4014-7, Sean Hall.
01:44What a game.
01:5051-0.
01:53Estrada.
01:55Santos on the pull-up.
01:59And somebody with a chance to take the lead.
02:03Puno.
02:07And there's the seal by Joe Selzo.
02:10Look how wide and open Joe Selzo was inside after that seal.
02:14No one from the Letran side even helped,
02:19because they're thinking that if they drop down,
02:23they're going to leave their man wide open for that shot.
02:25And so, they left him there for him, and he got the foul.
02:38Puno.
02:41Selzo on the ball to Estacio.
02:44Sohonya for three.
02:46Short.
02:47Sohonya grabs his own disc.
02:49There we go!
02:50Brian Sohonya gives the lead to Sanvera,
02:53and now we go back court side to Gricel Campo.
02:57Anton and Prince looks like the Knights are staying true to their words
03:00and is playing with the same winning momentum,
03:02dominating as much as they can.
03:04Coming into the fourth quarter,
03:06Coach Alan Ricardo is reminding them,
03:08and that is for them to not get carried away.
03:11He says time is concentration,
03:13and he's saying that they should control their defensive play,
03:17giving them the green light to take the shot if they have a chance,
03:20but if not, they must keep the ball moving and continue executing.
03:24Will today be a repeat of the previous victories?
03:26We'll find out in a while.
03:27For now, back to you, Anton and Prince.
03:29Letran is trying to protect their three-game winning streak.
03:34Sanvera is trying to get back on the win column.
03:40Been an up-and-down season for the defending champions.
03:45Estrada.
03:48Donut.
03:49Ten rebounds today.
03:50Donut.
03:52That was good defense.
03:53Perfect defense for Sanvera.
04:01Was that a regular foul?
04:04Because normally in other leagues,
04:08they call it...
04:10What do you call that?
04:12Transition foul?
04:13Transition foul?
04:16I think that's why they have to review it.
04:23Transition take foul.
04:24Yeah, that's right.
04:25Transition take foul.
04:28Because they have the numbers.
04:30One, two, three, four.
04:35Three, four.
04:37Four, five, six, seven, eight.
04:41See, that's the energy we're talking about.
04:44I love it.
04:45One, two, three, four.
04:48Five, six, seven, eight.
04:50Four, five, six, seven, eight.
04:53Four, five, six, seven, eight.
04:56Okay, now the Letran Faithful are coming up with a chant of their own.
05:06And there's Rayu Policarpio and attorney G-Boy Cabochan,
05:11two of three men behind the San Vera season pass.
05:15Of course, team manager Jude Roque is the third man.
05:26What do you think, Anton?
05:27What does that foul look like for you?
05:34Apparently, they called for a regular foul.
05:39But based on my angle earlier, I think it was a transition take foul.
05:45But again, it's their call.
05:48And you know, they made the call as a regular foul.
05:50We have to honor and respect that.
05:52There's longtime team manager, Coach Jude Roque.
06:01Sahoya Miller with the board.
06:12Letran has not scored in seven minutes.
06:18Can they end the drought?
06:21Not yet, but Yossi making rebounding look like an art form.
06:26Puno with a career high.
06:2919 points for Joel Puno.
06:37And San Veras on top by four.
06:42That was a good foul. That was a good foul, I think.
06:47Because instead of giving up a wide open lane to the basket,
06:50he gave up that foul.
06:52And a reset on defense.
06:55There is an emerging star in the NCAA.
06:59And he wears jersey number one for San Vera.
07:02Joel Puno now with 19 points.
07:04Closing in for his career high of 20 points last game.
07:11By Yossi.
07:14Estacio.
07:16Oh!
07:20That was a smart play for Estacio.
07:25And that's the fourth personal foul on Jimbo Estrada.
07:41That was a nice, nice shot fake, Anton.
07:45I mean, if you're on a fast break, and you guys are up by four,
07:52that shot fake was the perfect, perfect decision you can make.
07:56Because that's for sure, he'll jump.
07:59And knowing that you're even smaller than them,
08:02they want you to get hit.
08:04And what he did is perfect.
08:10Oh, Estacio still can't find the bottom of the net.
08:14San Beda now has
08:19eight out of their 12 free throws, I think.
08:2312 or 11.
08:26He got another foul from, I think, it was Nunag.
08:32Yes, Nunag got the foul.
08:36San Beda prints eight out of 13 from the free throw line.
08:40Eight out of 13.
08:42And I think Nunag got his fourth personal foul, if I'm not mistaken.
08:46And that is going to be his fourth personal foul.
08:49And that is going to be his fourth personal foul.
08:52Personal foul, if I'm not mistaken.
08:54And that is going to be big for Letran.
08:56Jimbo Estrada with four fouls, and then Nunag with four fouls.
09:01How is Coach Allen going to take this?
09:13Gopal Havidinar today, not feeling well.
09:16He's sitting on the edge
09:19of the Letran bench
09:21in civilian clothes.
09:25And I'm sure, Anton, if I was Pau,
09:28I'd be on the edge of my seat
09:31wanting to change my clothes into the game clothes
09:35and, you know, getting ready to play.
09:39That is the worst feeling, you know, the feeling that
09:42knowing you won't be able to help your team
09:47in a way that you used to just because of an apparent injury.
09:52Wow, hits the deck.
09:54Payose.
09:57Almost coming up with a steal.
10:00I love the aggressiveness of San Beda,
10:02both on offense and on defense.
10:04They've been running all over the place,
10:06and their defense is immaculate.
10:09Immaculate.
10:14Letran has missed their last ten field goal attempts.
10:21And I think, when I said immaculate,
10:24I think that's one of the reasons.
10:26Ten attempts.
10:28They were up earlier, and then now they are down by six.
10:31And that's something that you don't want for your team.
10:36And Montesillo turns the ball over.
10:42San Beda's defense has been impenetrable.
10:50And it doesn't help Letran that all of the Betas are standing behind their goal.
10:55And, Anton, can I just remind you about something I said earlier?
10:59About the Letran being tired.
11:04And I think it's taking a toll on them, you know?
11:16And I think Nunag has five fouls.
11:19Yeah.
11:21He has fouled out of this game, and he's cramping up.
11:24And this is going to be tough for Letran and San Beda.
11:27At the same time, I think Jomel Puno is okay.
11:30Hopefully, nothing bad is happening.
11:33And I think he's okay. He's standing up.
11:38Nunag, seven out of ten.
11:41Or, sorry, seven points, ten rebounds in 28 minutes.
11:47Heavy minutes for Nunag.
11:51And this is what I was telling you about, Anton, earlier.
11:54Coach Allen is heavy on his first five.
11:56And I think they're kind of tired, you know?
12:00And so their decisions are somehow affected
12:05with the quality of the shots they take.
12:09Because of the mental fatigue.
12:11Yes, because of the mental fatigue.
12:13And there's a study about those kinds of stuff that if you're tired,
12:16chances are the decisions that you're going to make
12:18aren't going to be of the best interest of yourself and the team.
12:21Because you're tired.
12:27Kobe Monge comes in for Nunag.
12:32And I think Kobe Monge is coming in for the first time.
12:35Second time, actually.
12:37He's played five minutes, but has not scored a point, Prince.
12:42And this is going to be tough for Letran, you know?
12:45One of their players are fouled out,
12:47and then one of them, four fouls.
12:49And there's only six minutes for this quarter.
12:52-♪
12:55-♪
12:58-♪
13:01-♪
13:04So a foul called on Joe Celso.
13:06-♪
13:09So a foul called on Joe Celso.
13:11-♪
13:13-♪
13:15-♪
13:17-♪
13:19What a foul was called.
13:21Good call there, ref.
13:23-♪
13:25-♪
13:27-♪
13:29-♪
13:31-♪
13:33Wow.
13:35And if you can see, Letran here is trying to run their single-double
13:38to try and set up Quahog for those outside jumpers.
13:41Wide shot by Quahog.
13:43Ooh! Oh, no.
13:45Jonathan was in pain.
13:48Oh, no. He is...
13:50He held on to his foot right away.
13:52I think he was cramping up.
13:54I think he's cramping up.
13:56Because earlier,
13:58his calf got hit, remember?
14:00And I think...
14:02It's because his muscle got stiff,
14:04that's why he cramped up.
14:06-♪
14:08-♪
14:10-♪
14:12Look at Jommel
14:14hold on to his right foot as soon as he landed.
14:16-♪
14:18Actually, even before he landed...
14:20Actually, I was scared because his grip was different.
14:22Oh, it's the Achilles, right?
14:24Yes, it's the Achilles part.
14:26And I think he's from Santalon, so...
14:28Earlier, I didn't want to think badly,
14:30but now that it's just cramps,
14:32you know, we don't want to wish
14:34anything to our players.
14:36And of course, with the grace of God,
14:38I hope there's no injury.
14:40But I think he's okay.
14:42He held on to his foot earlier.
14:44Yes, and I think it got hit
14:46because of the foul that was given to him.
14:48-♪
14:50-♪
14:52-♪
14:54-♪
14:56Jommel Puno, 27 minutes
14:58played today, 20 points,
15:00eight rebounds, one assist.
15:02-♪
15:04-♪
15:06Latran, napako sa 51.
15:08And you know,
15:10Anton, Jommel Puno has been averaging
15:1225 minutes per game
15:14and has now played
15:16more than his average, and I think that's
15:18one of the reasons why
15:20he's cramping up.
15:22-♪
15:24And not just that, and he's been
15:26so aggressive both on offense and on defense,
15:28and that's going to take an extra toll
15:30on your body.
15:32-♪
15:34It looks like they're taping his footprints.
15:36Yes, and I think they're trying to
15:38deload the muscle, you know, to release
15:40the pressure and the tightness from the muscle
15:42to help
15:44relax the muscle.
15:46-♪
15:48Santos, good on the first.
15:50And you know,
15:52I think there's something that
15:54I have a friend who has a condition
15:56that he sweats three times
15:58more than an average person, so they make
16:00him drink pickle juice.
16:02You know, pickle juice? Yeah, they make
16:04him drink pickle juice to help
16:06in his hydration. I don't know why, but
16:08for some reason, it helps.
16:10-♪
16:14Pickle juice, that's interesting.
16:16Yes, and before, I used to see also teams
16:18bringing mustard in their bench.
16:20Wow.
16:22Bringing mustard in their bench, and you know,
16:24whenever it comes to a point that they're tired,
16:26they give
16:28them, like, a dash of mustard
16:30to, I don't know for what
16:32reason, but for some reason, they said it helps.
16:34I've never heard that before.
16:36-♪
16:44Estacho.
16:46Santos
16:48comes over for the switch,
16:50and Santos blocks Estacho.
16:52I don't know
16:54what Estacho was thinking there, but they
16:56have a mismatch underneath with Celso
16:58being guarded by Montecilio.
17:00Montecilio
17:02to Estrada.
17:04Estrada
17:06over Pajosic.
17:08Difficult shot.
17:10That was a difficult shot, but Pajosic
17:12made a perfect defense on that one.
17:14He stayed
17:16with him until the very end,
17:18and that challenge was perfect.
17:20You can't ask for anything more. He just made it.
17:22That was a tough shot. Good shot
17:24by Jimbo Estrada.
17:28Sahonia
17:30pulls up for three,
17:32and Montecilio comes up with a rebound.
17:38Estrada cross over.
17:40Jimbo Estrada!
17:42Yes!
17:46That's the
17:48separate lead down to two.
17:54Estrada now back
17:56with the game.
18:00Sahonia.
18:02Estacho from way, way
18:04out! That's why he shot
18:06earlier, Anton.
18:08He's licensed.
18:12Big
18:14time three by Benny Estacho.
18:24Santos
18:26loses control of the basketball.
18:30Oh, an unsportsmanlike foul
18:32called.
18:36I think he stepped on the foot
18:38of Estacho.
18:42We can't see from our angle
18:44because we're being blocked.
18:54Oh!
19:08Wow! So Benny Estacho was
19:10just called for an unsportsmanlike
19:12foul. And this is
19:14going to be crucial for San Beda, because
19:16they're going to be giving away
19:18free throws and a possession, and they need
19:20it. They are only
19:22up by five.
19:24Yes!
19:46So Prince, my question
19:48to you is
19:50may tatlong free throws ba to?
19:52No. In addition to the
19:54technical free throws. I think
19:56yes, because
19:58he was outside the line
20:00and so if you get fouled there, you should
20:02three. But then if it's an
20:04unsportsmanlike foul, you get an extra
20:06free throw, right?
20:12But you know,
20:14I'm just glad that he didn't
20:16step on Estacho's foot and
20:18twist an ankle or something.
20:22I don't see Joe Malpuno on
20:24the San Beda bench.
20:26Maybe he's trying to test out
20:28that Achilles.
20:30I think
20:32natatakpan lang from your angle.
20:34He's sitting beside Coach Norman.
20:38Oh yeah!
20:40Is that him?
20:42I think so.
20:44Because he's in a
20:46kind of an afro.
20:48A straight throw.
20:50Oh, this is going to be
20:52crucial for San Beda.
20:54You know, they've been holding on to this lead.
20:56They've been trying their best to keep
20:58this lead.
21:00And now Letran has a chance
21:02to
21:04cut the lead down to...
21:12And Joe Malpuno is trying to
21:14check back into this game.
21:16Three minutes,
21:1825 minutes.
21:20Three minutes and 25 seconds
21:22left in this fourth quarter.
21:24Napakagandang game.
21:2661-58 San Beda up by
21:28three. Letran possession.
21:32They go to their main man.
21:34Especially in
21:36endgame situations, Jimbo Estrada.
21:38Moon hair!
21:42He tried to double Jimbo Estrada
21:44but then Jimbo is found.
21:48Puno.
21:52Sahania.
21:54Under three minutes
21:56left.
21:58Puno
22:00with 20 points today.
22:06Puno by Yoshin.
22:08San Beda runs out of time.
22:14You get what I mean
22:16when I tell you
22:18when they're tired,
22:20the decisions they make
22:22are questionable.
22:24And you know,
22:26this is where what we said last game
22:28will come in.
22:30Gut and conditioning.
22:32Because if you have great
22:34conditioning, then your
22:36decision making is going to be okay
22:38and fine until the end of the game.
22:44Letran down by one.
22:46Moon hair.
22:50Estrada.
22:52Letran running that
22:54horn's play.
22:56The traditional horn's play
22:58making sure they get the ball
23:00to Jimbo Estrada.
23:02Coach Alan Ricardo
23:04calls a timeout. It will still be
23:06Letran possession when we return.
23:14Montecito.
23:18Estrada is on the move.
23:20Estrada puts it up
23:22and in.
23:24So Jimbo is on.
23:2630 points at first quarter.
23:28Right now they're just 12 and 10.
23:30Montecito.
23:32Surveys Puno. Hiding the screen again.
23:34Need to shoot for that.
23:36Pull up jumper.
23:38Estrada.
23:40We'll talk about baskets.
23:42Miscommunication with Letran.
23:48Prince, who's
23:50going to celebrate after this?
23:52That's what I don't know.
23:54But of course, whoever
23:56our friends are going to celebrate
24:00after this game,
24:02they're going to be happy
24:04because this rivalry game is worth it.
24:06What more
24:08can you ask for?
24:10This is what
24:12a San Pedro-Letran
24:14rivalry is all about.
24:16That's the energy
24:18we need
24:20on a Tuesday.
24:2812 seconds on the shot clock
24:30of Letran.
24:36They have to throw the ball in play.
24:40Wow, that was dangerously
24:42close to a 5-second violation.
24:44And again, they get the ball to Estrada.
24:48Shovel pass to Santos.
24:50Santos rises for Letran
24:52and gives them the lead.
24:54Kibit Santos is a
24:56man-possessed.
25:00Do you know the term
25:02they use when you're shooting
25:04from a perimeter of Piso Piso?
25:06I think that's part of his bag.
25:08Santos now
25:10with a career-high 18 points.
25:12Payocet for three.
25:14Too strong.
25:16Oh, boy.
25:22Kibit Santos
25:24on this shot establishes
25:26a new career-high
25:2818 points
25:30for the big man.
25:38Letran trying to
25:40extend his lead.
25:42Estrada
25:44over Puno
25:46and Zahonia comes up with a loose
25:48ball.
25:56Zahonia on the drive.
25:58Too strong.
26:00Letran's defense
26:02holding the fort.
26:04Here in the fort.
26:08Montesillo.
26:14Montesillo
26:16to Santos.
26:18Off the glass.
26:20No good. Puno with the rebound.
26:22Puno is running wild.
26:24Joe Belpuno
26:26unleashed. Joe Belpuno
26:28with the layup
26:30taking back that lead
26:32from Letran.
26:34And that's a new career-high

27:3622 points.
27:38And also this is the fifth lead change
27:40in our fourth quarter.
27:42And that's why it's really
27:44exciting to watch
27:46the rival game of San Beda
27:48versus Letran.
27:50Because you can see
27:52how our players work
27:54both on offense and on defense
27:56making sure that they
27:58will win this game.
28:04Letran has one timeout
28:06remaining. San Beda has two.
28:08What a game for

29:20another close game
29:22in this NCAA
29:24season.
29:2664-63
29:28Jimboy Estrada.
29:30Time and
29:32time again.
29:34This season has been the man Letran
29:36has gone to when they needed
29:38a basket in the fourth.
29:40And this closer right here
29:42gave back the lead to Letran
29:44and he's still asking for a foul.
29:46And you know,
29:48those kinds of moments
29:50are beautiful to watch.
29:52Because if you know defense,
29:54he really did everything.
29:56We can see that he's really in front
29:58of the defender, which is Zahon.
30:00The entire time, it's just that
30:02those kinds of shots are his shots
30:04and he makes those.
30:06And he takes those for breakfast,
30:08lunch, and dinner.
30:10Maybe even a couple
30:12of snacks in between.
30:14Those are the kinds of shots
30:16that he lives for those.
30:18And now San Beda
30:20possessions, they have the chance
30:22to take back their lead.
30:24So you've got
30:26Zahon, Andrada, Puno,
30:28Payosig, and Tatle
30:30on the floor for the Red Lions.
30:34Joel Puno
30:36spins.
30:38Zahon!
30:40Zahon!
30:42For three!
30:46He has been quiet
30:48from beyond the yard the entire game.
30:52But making the most noise
30:54here on the floor.
30:56Joel Puno with the rebound.
31:0025 seconds left in this game.
31:04Andrada.
31:08Zahon that gets the ball back.
31:14Anton, this is how I feel
31:16when I'm nervous.
31:18Zahon with a heel carry.
31:22And that is a shot clock violation.
31:28Oh my.
31:30That was a tough call
31:32by Brian Zahon.
31:34They were up.
31:38I mean,
31:40if he made a three-pointer before that,
31:42I think he has the right
31:44to take those kinds of shots.
31:46What do you think?
31:48Well, I just saw Coach
31:50Yuri Escueta telling
31:52Brian that Jommel was wide open
31:54on the left wing.
31:56And you can ask the highest percentage
31:58of the three in their team.
32:00But again,
32:02he just made a wild three-pointer earlier.
32:04How can you get mad at him for taking shots
32:06like those? And he's the one playing defense the entire game.
32:08And the crazy thing was,
32:10Jommel's spin earlier
32:12Coach Allen was signaling
32:14for a travel. Yes, because I think
32:16after that bump, he kind of took a
32:18hop before landing on both
32:20his feet. But he landed at the same time on his feet.
32:22So I don't think that's going to warrant
32:24a travel.
32:26Again, Anton, these kinds of
32:28crucial games,
32:30that's where the hard work
32:32that they put into their skills training
32:34during the entire
32:36preparation for this season comes out.
32:38How hard they can go
32:40in their skills training,
32:42that's where they can apply in times like this.
32:44And I think we'll see who
32:46really puts the effort
32:48into their games.
33:10Montesilio gets it. Wow!
33:12Wow!
33:22And the refs blow
33:24the whistle.
33:36That's just great defense
33:38on the part of James Payosing
33:40forcing
33:42Deokhwa how to lose his balance
33:44and Payosing
33:46grabbing that all-important rebound.
33:48So, Anton,
33:50when they say shooters
33:52shoot, but if you watch
33:54Payosing, what happens?
33:56Well, he
33:58still shot it. Shooters still shoot.
34:00But, you know,
34:02when there's a guy, a great defender
34:04guarding you, shooters
34:06will still shoot, but that
34:08small off-balance
34:10that he can give you
34:12will play a huge role. And in this
34:14case, Sandeta
34:16is up by two, and
34:18he was able to force a bad
34:20shot from Guahao, leading
34:22to an offensive,
34:24to a defensive rebound and a foul.
34:30Alright, let's take a look
34:32at this right here. Guahao
34:34takes the shot. Badly misfires.
34:36The ball is loose.
34:40Payosing picks it up.
34:42And I think
34:44Guahao gave him a foul.
34:46Now,
34:48dito natin makikita yung
34:50free throw kung gano ka-important
34:52yung free throw, Anton.
34:54If he makes two, it's over.
35:04Oh, no!
35:06He missed one.
35:08He has one more chance
35:10to give them a
35:12lead of three
35:14for a safe lead.
35:22Let's see if Payosing will miss this
35:24intentionally.
35:26Yup, he missed it intentionally.
35:28And that will do it.
35:30Sandeta
35:33with a much
35:35important win
35:37against Letran
35:39today.
35:53What a war.
35:55What a game, Anton.
35:57What a game.
35:59Now, this is what I love about NCAA
36:01games like this.
36:03And the other game before
36:05this, wow.
36:07Now, this is how you should end a Tuesday.
36:09And it's only a
36:11Tuesday. And it's only a Tuesday.
36:17There's your final. 66 for
36:19Sandeta. 64
36:21for Letran.
36:23The Red Lions snap Letran's
36:25three-game winning streak.
36:31Letran.
36:33Letran.
36:35Letran.
