00:00CM Concepcion, so he's still here, he will start in the border.
00:04Two-way player, five blocks, 19 points, a career-high big boost.
00:09Actually, in the San Veda game, we saw the impact of Concepcion.
00:14Actually, he played well in their San Veda game, even though they lost.
00:20The confidence of this guy, what's missing here is the shooting outside.
00:27First possession, here in the EAC, ball to Harvey Pagsanhan.
00:32Gortiza, pull-up, too strong.
00:35And Mangupat comes up with the rebound.
00:42Great matchup here, Escamiz and Gortiza.
00:46That's it, it's back to Clint.
00:50Loristo against Escamiz.
00:53Escamiz, step back, baseline, short.
00:57Offensive rebound for Igliani.
00:59There's Concepcion again.
01:01Concepcion, diving for the ball.
01:06Offensive rebound again.
01:08You're really making fun of the kid.
01:11Yam's effort can't be measured because we're just getting started.
01:18Offensive rebound again.
01:19He's still the same Tomira, right?
01:22You thought it was a turnover, he went for the ball.
01:25Ooh, Loristo with the block.
01:28He hit the floater in the middle, it was a challenge.
01:31Because you're the shooter, you know where the ball will land.
01:37That's the advantage of Yam Concepcion, and he jumped really high.
01:44Mangupat, passed to Escamiz.
01:46Second shot for Clint is in.
01:48At this early stage of the ballgame, Clint is already active.
01:52He has two attempts already.
01:55Whereas in the previous game, he was just involving his teammates.
01:58He was just passing to the first half.
02:01When the third and fourth half came, he took over.
02:03Here comes Harvey Pagsanhan.
02:06Emotion from Harvey Pagsanhan.
02:08Normally, he's just chill, but...
02:11He was shouted at.
02:13After that end-1 opportunity, Harvey Pagsanhan.
02:16After that end-1 opportunity.
02:35And Pagsanhan completes the three-point play.
02:42You can see the effort of these players.
02:46Every possession counts, knowing that...
02:49They're trying to improve their chances of advancing to the final four.
02:54For the Makua players, they want to maintain the number 2 spot.
02:58If they can get it into the number 1 spot, much better.
03:02For the AAC, they want to be in the number 4 spot.
03:07Even if it's just the number 4, it's okay.
03:10Pagsanhan.
03:12Luciano, attacking.
03:14Luciano finishes with a left hand.
03:17Wow!
03:21The top key.
03:22He's attacking Hubilia.
03:24Going to his left.
03:26He's just preparing.
03:27He's not that fast.
03:30And I'm sure...
03:32Randy's not happy with Hubilia's defensive effort.
03:36And Hubilia gets blocked by Loristo.
03:38He thought he was going to make it to the pass break.
03:40That was a pass break.
03:42But Loristo finished it.
03:44A pass break for the AAC.
03:46Five points for Harvey Pagsanhan.
03:48Let's go to Kayla Afable.
03:50Anton and Bo, these two teams are off to a strong start in this second round.
03:55But these strong starts are now on the line as two winners go head-to-head.
03:59And one will come out on top.
04:01For coach Gerson Cabildes, this second round is all about survival.
04:05Every game is a must-win for the Generals.
04:07As their chance at the final four is on the line with every win and every loss.
04:12Today, they need to play harder, read and react, and capitalize on their dynamic as a team.
04:18For the Mapuha Cardinals, they are ready to defend their position at the top.
04:23With the team starting to gel better in this second round,
04:26it's all a matter of consistency and effort for the Cardinals to sustain that momentum.
04:31Coach Randy Alcantara wants to see extra effort on defense
04:34and consistent energy from start to finish.
04:37That's all from courtside, back to you Anton and Bo.
05:04They're going to miss that opportunity to gain some separation.
05:08Yes, because if they lose now, they're still going to be behind San Beda.
05:14Because they lost in the first round.
05:16But if they win today, they'll be number two.
05:21Hubilia. Wow!
05:23Okay! Chris Hubilia, not really known as a shooter, Bo.
05:28That's what we're saying, Chris Hubilia is lacking.
05:31But now he's showing us.
05:34It looks like Chris experienced that.
05:37Luciano is too light, he can't reach it.
05:44And Bo, prior to that three-pointer, Hubilia was zero for two for the whole season.
05:59Did you know that there are also Kapuso Stars who studied at NCAA schools?
06:04Some of them are Yasir Marta, who became San Sebastian's team B before moving to LPU.
06:10Anthony Rosaldo is from Arellano.
06:13And Rocco Nascino, who became Mr. Mapua.
06:16Perpetualites are Kailin Alcantara and Shaira Diaz.
06:20While Tubong St. Benilde are El Villanueva and David Licauco.
06:24Proud Bedans are Sofia Ceneron, Christopher Martin, and Andre Paras.
06:29And of course, the Kapuso Primetime King, Ding Dong Dantes, is from San Beda and became a member of his cheering squad.
06:37That's the NCAA in the first century.
06:43Did you know that there are also Kapuso Stars who studied at NCAA schools?
06:48Some of them are Yasir Marta, who became San Sebastian's team B before moving to LPU.
06:54Anthony Rosaldo is from Arellano.
06:58So after making his first three-pointer in the collegiate level, this is what Chris did.
07:05Luciano.
07:13Mubat with another rebound.
07:198-7 in favor of Mapua.
07:23And a steal here by Harvey Pagsanhan.
07:26Harvey Pagsanhan won in our ballgame today.
07:30He was able to see the pass to Yam Concepcion.
07:34He stole it from behind.
07:36He went straight for a pass break.
07:38JC Recto is in the game.
07:42Recto is attacking.
07:44You can see his rhythm is not 100% there yet.
07:48Yam Concepcion is always there.
07:50JC Recto is not in the right timing.
07:52Of course, if you haven't played for a long time, even if you were playing in practice,
07:57it's just you and your teammates who are playing.
08:00You are not like the other players who have played here at the NCAA.
08:06JC Recto has only played four games prior to this one.
08:12Averaging 6 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists.
08:19Yam Concepcion is just waiting.
08:22Yam is in the right place for him.
08:29The good thing about him is that Yam is skinny.
08:32He can easily get up.
08:33He has a nice body.
08:35It's not hard for him.
08:45They are really giving it to JC Recto.
08:48Coming from his canvas on top.
08:50Handed off to JC Recto.
08:52Missed the card.
08:54Here's RB.
09:04I think they appreciate JC Recto being a statistician.
09:09That's why he's still there.
09:18They are not trying to work him back slowly into the flow of things.
09:24They're just giving him the ball.
09:26It's up to you to miss the card.
09:28We know you can do it.
09:33When he went in, he had 3 possessions against him.
09:36Until he attempted a foul.
09:39The first one was a fumble.
09:41The second one, he discarded it.
09:431-1 against Octana.
09:45And here's the third one.
09:47Off a fast break.
09:49It's not a joke that you've been sitting for 6 games.
09:53Of course not.
09:556 games of just watching, doing stats.
09:58And you were practicing on your own.
10:01You need to do it on your own.
10:03These guys are just light practice because it's the season.
10:06And he won't be able to keep up because he won't be in good condition.
10:11So you need to do it on your own.
10:31Harvey Pagzangan is amazing.
10:35He's not giving up.
10:37A while ago, it was Hubiliang.
10:39Now it's Yam Concepcion.
10:41He knows he can do it.
10:43Yam is just too heavy.
11:02Let's go, guys!
11:15Here's Coach Randy's new opponent for the PUA.
11:20Ryan.
11:32And they're still going.
11:39Four offensive opportunities.
11:42Four possessions.
11:44They're looking for it.
11:46Quenco is really asking for the ball.
11:49A mismatch here by Quenco against Gortiza.
11:53There's no more break-in, break-in.
11:56No, no.
11:59It's back to action.
12:01Here's the son of their assistant coach, Coach Yong.
12:05Garcia is in, and Clint is out.
12:11Game recognized, game.
12:13Another well-known trash talker, Lucero.
12:18This is beautiful.
12:20That's what's beautiful, Garcia and Lucero.
12:23Both of them are fighting inside the court.
12:26These kids are fighting for nothing.
12:32Here we go, Lucero bringing the ball down.
12:36Joaquin went in earlier this time.
12:39Yes, in the last game, he went in in the second quarter.
12:43But now, when Lucero was seen, he went in.
12:47Roptana, libre.
12:49That's what you expect from Wilmar Roptana.
12:53Those ball screens that pop out in the corner or on the elbow side.
12:59If you leave it libre, it will happen.
13:02Here's Quenco.
13:04What a play by Mapua.
13:06Sluggered screen from the corner.
13:08Here's Recto.
13:10Quenco is on top.
13:12Matic.
13:15Lucero.
13:17Gets the ball back.
13:20Lucero against Recto.
13:22Recto giving him space.
13:24Lucero blocked it.
13:26Pagsahan.
13:28Roptana from the corner.
13:31And Quenco comes up with the rebound.
13:34Watch out for Concepcion.
13:38Concepcion steps on the brakes.
13:41Reset for Mapua.
13:46Quenco.
13:48Garcia.
13:50Garcia.
13:52And that's a foul on Yam.
13:56Yam Concepcion is on the 2nd.
14:01Here's Wilmar Roptana's ball screen on the side.
14:06Matic.
14:08And we have a timeout by Mapua.
14:18And that's why he is there.
14:19That's why this EACL Day is transferred into a zone.
14:23Here it is.
14:25Manubat drags the triple.
14:28The first point in our match for Lorenz Manubat.
14:31Make the most out of it.
14:33Because you don't know when Lorenz will come back.
14:35You don't know when your teammates will come back.
14:38That's right.
14:40Here it is again.
14:42Lorenz Manubat.
14:44Drags his 2nd one from the same spot.
14:47Dzeko Bankale is back in the game.
14:50Devara of EAC.
14:53Manubat.
14:55The roadie is red hot.
15:06We have Mr. Frank Gusi, NCAE lifer.
15:09Man-to-home rep now of the University of Perpetual Health System, Delta.
15:14And I see...
15:16Coach Chito Victolero sitting behind the Mapua bench.
15:21He's an avid fan.
15:23He's an avid supporter of Mapua.
15:27Maybe he's giving tips.
15:30Coach Chito.
15:33Former Mapua cardinal.
15:35Former Mapua head coach as well.
15:38Former Mapua cardinal.
15:40And former Mapua head coach as well.
15:46Octana found a good one there.
15:48But it didn't finish.
15:50Here's Bakud.
15:53Cuenco.
15:56Gives it to Recto.
15:59Recto steps back.
16:02Ryan.
16:04The ball was released.
16:05And JC Recto.
16:08Diving on the floor.
16:10Counter steal by Lucero.
16:12Hand off for Kinal.
16:14Kinal blocked by Recto.
16:16JC Recto.
16:18Stolen away by Octana.
16:22And...
16:24The escape dribble and the basket for EAC.
16:29Jude Bagay.
16:31The counter steal.
16:33After steal.
16:35After turnover again.
16:37And...
16:39Another steal by Octana.
16:42From Recto.
16:44And a handoff for Bakud.
16:46Bakud is still free on the side.
16:49That's why he didn't give it.
16:51Now we can see that JC is breathing heavily.
16:55This is what we were saying earlier.
16:57The actual game is different.
16:58The actual game is different.
17:00The actual game is different.
17:02In 5 on 5 with your teammates.
17:04In practice.
17:06Of course, his opponents.
17:08He will be more aggressive.
17:10In practice, you have to...
17:12Like...
17:14Be like him.
17:16To avoid injury.
17:18And there's a bit of...
17:20Aggression in our game.
17:22Bakud and Ryan.
17:25Ryan is strong.
17:28This was away from the ball.
17:30While the other two were going down.
17:32What happened?
17:35The question is...
17:37Did they do it on purpose?
17:45So the referees will review this.
17:51Here's another angle.
17:53They didn't say anything.
17:55Both of them are running going down.
17:59That's why our referees call it a regular foul.
18:03They call it as a pushing foul.
18:12The battle between the two Pepesquads is intense.
18:16Because there are no drums.
18:18Opposite sides.
18:20Only voices.
18:22This is what you usually see.
18:24Fighting in a pro-wrestling match.
18:28You go there first.
18:30And we'll go there first.
18:32We'll go there first.
18:34Give the old man first.
18:53That's what he's doing.
18:55He's using his playing time.
18:56He's using his playing time.
18:58Ryan has very limited minutes.
19:00I haven't seen this in the previous games.
19:03But now...
19:05He has playing time.
19:07Because Concepcion and Mobiliar have two fouls.
19:11Here's Octana.
19:14Even though JC Recto has a hand there.
19:17He'll still get it.
19:19One point lead for AEC.
19:20This time, Quenco is chasing Kinal.
19:23Coming off the screen.
19:25Cyrus.
19:28Ryan.
19:30Deep.
19:32JC Recto snatching that rebound.
19:34Ryan's elbow was deep there.
19:36He got it.
19:38Recto, wild shot.
19:40A new opportunity.
19:42JC Recto.
19:44Even though he's tired.
19:46Octana got hit there.
19:48But he gets the ball.
19:50Again, foot back foul.
19:52For Octana.
19:54Octana's defense was good.
19:56He got the ball.
19:58But it still went to him.
20:00Here comes JC Recto.
20:02He's the third man.
20:04The third scorer of Mapua.
20:07Behind Escamiz and Quenco.
20:10He's going to add Mobiliar.
20:12Concepcion.
20:14Plus Mangubat.
20:16Mangubat is just trying to get the ball.
20:18It's not like that anymore.
20:20It's not like that anymore.
20:24You can see JC Recto's breath.
20:26He's really looking for oxygen.
20:31And I think Coach Randy is really trying to get him wet.
20:34So that he can get his condition back.
20:36So that he can get his condition back.
20:38He really needs it here.
20:41NCAA is a long season.
20:4418 eliminations game.
20:46And then.
20:47And then.
20:49When we were in the last set.
20:52One more in the final four.
20:55And then best of three in the finals.
21:03And the thing about the long eliminations.
21:06When you're left behind, it hurts.
21:08When you're left behind and you can't catch up in the top four.
21:11Yes.
21:13That's why you need it.
21:15If you were in the five, six, seven spot.
21:17Don't be left behind in the top four.
21:20That's what they call it now.
21:22You have to push the top four.
21:24To the bottom.
21:26And then you have to run around there.
21:28Because.
21:30When you look at the standings.
21:32It's Benil.
21:34And then these three, Mapuha and Beda.
21:36And then after that, it's close.
21:38It's almost close.
21:40It's just Benil.
21:42Upper hand.
21:44Axel Darmal, unfortunately.
21:45Not suited up today.
21:47Due to injury.
21:49And what hurts here is.
21:51We haven't seen the former Axel Darmal.
21:53The number two scorer of NCAA.
21:55When he was with Arellano.
21:57Recto.
21:59Wild.
22:01Bagay.
22:03Uncontested.
22:05After that turnover.
22:07Bagay continued.
22:12And that will do it for the first quarter of play.
22:13A tight contest.
22:15Between Mapuha and EAC.
22:17The Generals lead the Cardinals 21-19.
