00:00Kyle Pochavo is in the backcourt of the EEC Generals.
00:03Angel Jaramal will be coming off the bench.
00:06Both teams deploying a slightly shorter lineup here.
00:10So we are guaranteed pace here, friends.
00:12Actually, both teams have a small lineup.
00:15They like to play with a small lineup.
00:17So their strength is their guards.
00:20The two teams have very big guards.
00:23But he missed.
00:25Raymar to the line here.
00:28But I feel like they will somehow gain confidence
00:31in their performance against Berlin.
00:33Because, of course, they went up against the No. 1 team in the league.
00:36And they still fought.
00:38They almost won the game.
00:39Shoot anywhere.
00:40Very streaky 3-point shooter here is Pascual.
00:44Steady as well.
00:46As a playmaker.
00:47Pakeng left with space.
00:49Doesn't take it.
00:50Pulling the trigger.
00:51Oh!
00:52Are finds the bottom of the net that time.
00:55Second field goal for San Sebastian.
00:57Another one.
00:58Cross-court.
00:59Paeng is doubled.
01:02Paeng.
01:04Rishaw, push shot.
01:05Maegsit.
01:06Nothing.
01:07EEC running.
01:08They don't have the numbers.
01:09Cortiza doesn't care.
01:10He goes all the way.
01:11He shouldn't care.
01:12He's the No. 1 guy in the team.
01:13Even though they don't have the numbers.
01:14It's a straight shot.
01:15Nine points in the first quarter for King Cortiza.
01:16Filibrico will try to answer.
01:17Wow!
01:18Nice shot by Loristo.
01:19Filibrico's hand just reached.
01:20Let's check this one out.
01:21Paengari hesitated.
01:22He wants the harder shot.
01:23He saw that the net is big.
01:24So he thought of driving.
01:25But he still dropped it to three points.
01:26This guy has been unstoppable.
01:27He's the No. 1 guy in the team.
01:28He's the No. 1 guy.
01:29He's the No. 1 guy.

02:16He's the No. 1 guy.
02:17He's the No. 1 guy.
02:18He's the No. 1 guy.
02:19He's the No. 1 guy.
02:20He's the No. 1 guy.
02:21He's the No. 1 guy.
02:22He's the No. 1 guy.
02:24That's all they can do here.
02:26Lushano quick shot.
02:27Oh!
02:28Lushano makes it.
02:29Is that counted?
02:30At the horn.
02:31Very close.
02:35Let's check it.
02:39Here's the catch.
02:40Oh yeah, it counts.
02:43Counted.
02:450.8 left.
02:46Lushano was able to release it in time.
02:49Another one.
02:51They should have capitalized on those fast breaks.
02:54They had the numbers.
02:55They just need to capitalize on that.
02:57And both teams missing their layups.
03:00There you go.
03:01You got it back.
03:02DJ Filibrico got it back.
03:05Second free throw.
03:08Coming up short.
03:09Like this guy.
03:10Look at him go.
03:12Gabat pulls the trigger.
03:14Flings out of Tanab.
03:16Pulls it down.
03:17Good D.
03:19Lushano gets it.
03:20Good tackle to the back.
03:22Lushano recovers.
03:23Backwood.
03:24With another basket inside.
03:26That's where San Sebastian is really good.
03:28The way they top the balls.
03:30I think all the players know how to do that.
03:33This is just the beginning of the match.
03:35They won't be able to complete it.
03:39I've seen a lot of tops.
03:40I'm curious about their practice.
03:42What drills they're doing.
03:44Lushano somehow getting it to Backwood.
03:48That's a top bird for Jetro Backwood.
03:51Extend the link out.
03:53Palngarin now with 5 points in the ballgame.
03:56But he's gone 1 out of 7 from the field.
04:00We'll see if that changes in the next few minutes.
04:04Gortiza.
04:05Gortiza just got a pass up.
04:073 points.
04:08Not that time.
04:10Still a bit cold off the bench.
04:13But they get a tap.
04:1414 to work with.
04:19Lucero.
04:21Gortiza is open.
04:24He bounces home.
04:28Wilmar Ovtana.
04:34Felebrigo.
04:36Liris.
04:37Back up to 12.
04:40Gabat.
04:41One dribble in.
04:43Good father from Backwood.
04:44But the cleanup underneath by Felebrigo.
04:49You gotta add some shooting to your game.
04:52Especially when there's a lot of players on the field.
04:55You find ways to step up and take advantage.
05:00San Sebastian continues to throw the ball away.
05:03And EPC continues to make them pay.
05:07Harvey with a strong drive.
05:11Look at this.
05:12Rampaging Harvey Pagsanhan.
05:16It's really hard to stop him when Harvey is on fire.
05:20When he's downhill.
05:21With the flicks afterwards.
05:24Very much deserved.
05:267 so far.
05:28And EAC has scored 50 points.
05:31Wow.
05:33And Gortiz.
05:35Ares now.
05:371 out of 8 from the field.
05:40Tap from behind.
05:41That one's your tabo.
05:43Finish this.
05:44Felebrigo.
05:45Yes.
05:46Preston Felebrigo.
05:50Aswell.
05:52Long push shot.
05:55Easy running, they have the numbers.
05:57Gortiza.
05:58Another breakaway.
05:59For the Generals.
06:02San Sebastian really struggling now.
06:0611 points for Gortiza.
06:08He is the first guy in double figures.
06:12And the lead has ballooned to its biggest.
06:1617 points.
06:21Felebrigo.
06:22One more pass.
06:24He drains it.
06:25From just inside the arc.
06:287 to work with for Escobedo.
06:305.
06:32Corner.
06:33Gabat left with space.
06:35Too strong.
06:36Follow up.
06:37That counts for TJ Felebrigo.
06:42That's where Martin really gets his revenge.
06:43On offensive rebounds and second chance points.
06:48You're correct Prince.
06:49This is officially their 10th offensive rebound of the game.
06:53And they convert it.
06:55Felebrigo.
06:58Makes the basket.
06:59And the lead.
07:00Team point lead.
07:02Gortiza with a beautiful find inside.
07:05Penetration.
07:06Drop off at the last second for Jacob.
07:09Very good steal there for Jacob.
07:11Because of that steal, Gortiza saw him for a wide open layup.
07:15After scoring a bunch of points in the first half.
07:18Gortiza now in playmaking mode.
07:23In the first play.
07:25Felebrigo.
07:26Now with 17.
07:30So TJ Felebrigo has turned out to be the go-to guy for Sang Sebastian.
07:36The biggest breakout game in this game.
07:38This is his game now.
07:41Ahog.
07:43Gortiza.
07:45Gortiza pulling the trigger.
07:47Left it short.
07:48Offensive board.
07:51And Oztana scores inside.
08:00Oztana is now putting pressure on Big Man.
08:03Here's TJ again.
08:05Thought about the three.
08:06Kabat now has it.
08:08Kabat.
08:09Spray.
08:10Swing to the other side.
08:11Cruz.
08:12New face on the court for San Sebastian.
08:13Cruz.
08:14Tough shot.
08:15Popping in for Cruz.
08:17That was a tough shot.
08:19Now the Stags are tightening their defense.
08:21Looking for opportunities to turn the game around.
08:24Adversity may be part of the game.
08:26But split second decisions may shift the odds to their advantage.
08:30All for now.
08:31Over to you Martin and Prince.
08:33Thank you Bianca.
08:35That's the game plan ideally for Coach Arvin Boneleon.
08:39Gortiza.
08:41Sanhan.
08:43Felebrigo comes away with it.
08:46Felebrigo.
08:47Lone bright spot for San Sebastian.
08:49And he now has 19 points.
08:51He's really stepping up in today's game.
08:53Felebrigo.
08:5560-47.
08:56The contribution of Felebrigo is perfect.
08:58Because Escobedo and Are are a bit cold.
09:02So it's a perfect time for him to really step up.
09:05Sanhan.
09:06Down come Felebrigo again.
09:08Sanhan is on fire again.
09:10It's really hard to stop that.
09:12Even if you're the defender, you'll be scared.
09:14Yes.
09:15Right?
09:16Because you know Sanhan is really tough.
09:18He's really tough.
09:20You know his goal.
09:22If I don't get caught, I'll beat you up first.
09:25I'll throw a foul and beat you up.
09:28And here.
09:29Offensive board.
09:30Ochavo no good on the putback.
09:31But hustling for it again.
09:34And finding Harvey Hog-Sanhan on the cut.
09:39EAC running.
09:41Ochavo.
09:42Gortiza.
09:43Sanhan.
09:44Again.
09:45Good pass by EAC Martin.
09:48This is beautiful basketball being played.
09:52And here's Kyle Ochavo.
09:57Gortiza.
09:58Harvey.
10:00Under 5 minutes left in the third.
10:02Another bumper play.
10:03Sanhan with 17 points.
10:07Beautiful fist.
10:09Lucero.
10:12Good pass.
10:13Out of the middle.
10:14Pagay scores.
10:15Good Pagay.
10:17From Jason Lucero.
10:18Pagay is in double figures for the third straight game.
10:23Basketball is really beautiful, Martin.
10:25If the movement is beautiful for Sanhan.
10:28Better execution for San Sebastian.
10:33It was Filibrico.
10:34Finding Are.
10:44Lucero.
10:45Drop off.
10:46Aloristo.
10:47Another assist.
10:49Towering for that basket.
10:51It's like a basic basketball for EAC now.
10:55Field goal percentage.
10:57I expected this to go down for EAC.
11:00But it did go down.
11:02But not by much.
11:0350.
11:06Pagay turn around.
11:08Pagay scores.
11:09That rolls in.
11:11Now let's go courtside with
11:14Bianca Alejandra.
11:16Play hard and finish strong.
11:18That is how the EAC generals anchored a hard earned lead
11:21with a few minutes left to secure their status.
11:24Coach Gerson Cabildes is now keeping them focused
11:26saying we were out rebounded.
11:28It's down 42-37 so far.
11:33And they've had all the answers
11:36for every San Sebastian run.
11:38More importantly, almost a pickpocket by Are.
11:42That's the best defense by San Sebastian.
11:46But it's offside.
11:47Had all day for that three.
11:51Escobedo.
11:52Another one.
11:53Counter is right back.
11:55That's his third.
11:56Third triple for Lemartz.
11:58Slowly coming alive, Escobedo.
12:02And it's a matter of executing
12:04right after getting pressured, Prince.
12:06I think that's what they prepared for.
12:08As Escobedo drains another one.
12:10He's on fire now.
12:12But they need to get a stop.
12:15On to Prince.
12:16Gotta find Escobedo.
12:19He is the man at the corner.
12:20Escobedo misses the layup.
12:26Oftana.
12:27Oftana is up the floor.
12:32Oh.
12:34Gortiza.
12:35Gortiza.
12:36Difficult take.
12:38Rebound.
12:39Ending up with Jacob Wisely.
12:42Moves it back out.
12:44Oftana asking for the ball.
12:45Gortiza.
12:46Harvey for three.
12:48No!
12:50Harvey for three!
12:55Ring guard.
12:56Fouled while taking a three.
12:58Three.
13:01How about Harvey Pagsanhan?
13:04Gortiza.
13:07Attracted the defenders first
13:09before finding Pagsanhan
13:11who laced up that triple.
13:18And this is officially the highest output
13:20of the season for the generals so far.
13:23Their previous high was 90 points.
13:28Now they have 92 points on the board
13:30and we still have...
13:32First three quarters, he only has one point.
13:37He got it here in the fourth quarter
13:39but maybe it's too late.
13:41Oh, Gortiza.
13:43Just having his way
13:45against Bastet.
13:4914 points now for King.
13:56Splits the D and scores.
13:58What a finish there for Escobedo.
14:00That's what you want to see
14:01in every game.
14:04Gortiza.
14:07Ochavo with the offensive board.
14:13And this is part of the game plan
14:15of EAC, control the boards.
14:18They're a plus eight so far.
14:20Ochavo.
14:21Got it!
14:22Kyle Ochavo three!
14:24Kyle Ochavo joins.
14:27The party!
14:30All right, we're just waiting for...
14:34the last three seconds.
14:43Loose.
14:46And EAC...
14:48bounces back
14:50in a big way.
14:52Dispatching San Sebastian
14:54in this one.
14:5597 to 86.
14:57They were ahead
14:59by as many as 21 points.
15:01Did not look back.
15:02EAC will snatch
15:04their fourth win
15:05in season 100.
15:07Good bounce back win for EAC.
15:09They've been consistent
15:10all throughout the game.
15:12They didn't give any type of confidence
15:14to San Sebastian
15:16to catch up.
15:18As we see, mixed basketball going in.
15:22Final score is 97 to 86.
15:26Huge win
15:27to close out the first round
15:29for the EAC Generals.
15:32They're back on the winning course.
15:35And this is a perfect
15:37setup for them
15:38going into
15:40the final nine games of the season.
