00:00So we are all set for the third quarter of this matchup between Mabuhay and Perpetual.
00:07Thank you very much to the two of you for covering us, working alongside Prince Carlos.
00:12And we also have Aaron T. at courtside.
00:18Oh, too strong. He passed it to Ophelia.
00:22Good high to low action.
00:30Pagaran to Abis.
00:43It's going to be a Pagaran post-up against Escamiz.
00:47Fadeaway by Pagaran, short.
00:50Concepcion.
00:52Escamiz.
00:55He likes that spot.
00:57Lawrence Mangubat!
01:03First three-pointer for Mangubat this game.
01:06So the two stars from their respective high schools, now in the collegiate level, going at it.
01:19Mangubat and Goho Cruz.
01:22So, of course, they are already familiar with the playing style of these two.
01:29Boral, good move.
01:31Oh, what a move, what a finish for Boral.
01:36And that was amidst the contact.
01:4232-all. What a finish by JP Boral.
01:49Ophelia posting up noodles.
01:51He likes this matchup. He likes the challenge.
01:55Wow, what a shot.
01:56All right, let's get an update at courtside from Aaron T.
02:00In the words of reigning MVP, Clint and Escamiz, no hard work goes unnoticed.
02:04It will all eventually pay off in the end.
02:07And right now, the Cardinals are really able to get a spot in the final four.
02:12But according to Mangubat and Garcia, they still have to continue working hard,
02:16especially now that the Alphas are hungry for this win.
02:19That's why back in the dugout, Coach Randy Contal reminds his team to continue working together to execute their game plan,
02:24stay focused, and remain confident but not overconfident in this game.
02:29Right now in the second half, every play matters as they strive to secure this 12th victory and extend their winning streak.
02:34So let's see if the Cardinals can keep their composure or if the Alphas can capitalize on their momentum.
02:43A five-game winning streak, that is what Mapua is trying to protect.
02:47And they can't be overconfident against a team like Perpetual that is desperate and hungry right now.
02:55And look at this find by Escamiz.
02:59A good rim run for Yamko Dimchon.
03:13Rubella drains the first.
03:1637-32, five-point advantage now for Mapua as we see Coach Chito, Pistolero, Victolero.
03:29Perpetual! Perpetual! Perpetual!
03:37Boral.
03:39Big line-up now for Perpetual. We have Boral, Nunez, and Abis.
03:47Three big guys.
03:49And their two-guard, Pagana, is also posting.
03:53And Marco Cruz is not really a point guard, he's more of a shooting guard.
03:57Big line-up now for Perpetual.
04:04JC Recto is returning to the game.
04:18Rattles out.
04:20Let's see if Boral will make the adjustment.
04:28Oh, it's still short.
04:32Boral hasn't made an adjustment on the free throw.
04:381-3-1 for Perpetual.
04:41Mangubas is an open lane.
04:46Recto.
04:47Oh, errant pass. Stolen away.
04:50Steal.
04:51Oh, errant pass. Stolen away.
04:54Steal.
04:57Almost a steal there for Clint Escamiz.
04:59Escamiz.
05:20Alright, let's take a look at this right here.
05:24Escamiz.
05:26Okay, he definitely touched the ball.
05:28But did it touch the fingers of JP Boral?
05:31It seems like it touched Boral's fingertips.
05:37This is Pagana on finding Abis.
05:48Look at the defense of Perpetual.
05:50It's hard for them to get a draw in their zone defense.
05:56Good steal by Goho Cruz off of Escamiz.
06:04Boral to pull up.
06:07Mangubas to Recto.
06:09Oh, lost control.
06:19Goho Cruz loses it.
06:23Escamiz to Mangubas.
06:25Mangubas.
06:26Great body control.
06:27It's time for Mangubas.
06:35This is Perpetual's inbound play.
06:38Abis wants it.
06:42And this finish by Mangubas.
06:441-2-4.
06:46In the air.
06:48Escamiz is looking for something good.
06:51He's got 5 assists in this game.
06:585 assists, 3 steals now for Klim.
07:02And that's his trademark.
07:04Steals.
07:13Pagana.
07:18Goho Cruz.
07:20Abis.
07:26Goho Cruz.
07:28A lot of movement.
07:31Offensive sequence for Perpetual.
07:33They really took their time.
07:37Actually, Perpetual's flow is good.
07:42Alright, we'll take a break.
07:43Mapuha is holding on to a 6-point advantage.
07:47This is the moment.
07:49In your heart, the sky is the limit.
08:09We're really behind in the big man.
08:11We're underdog right now.
08:13But what we have now is a safe-pagat puzzle.
08:16That's what I'm worried about.
08:2340-34 in favor of the Mapuha Cardinals
08:26who are hoping to secure a twice-the-beat advantage
08:30in the Final Four.
08:31That's why they're trying to add as many wins as possible.
08:36Who's the last play?
08:37Who's the last touch?
08:41I think it's Juan Nunez.
08:44I agree.
09:07So, Mapuha's challenge was successful.
09:10Last touch to Nunez.
09:13Go, go, go!
09:28Hey, Juan.
09:31You can't be late for the challenge.
09:34It's a challenge.
09:36You said it's a challenge.
09:37You're the one who needs to win.
09:43This is the moment.
09:44In your heart, the sky is the limit.
09:48Let's go together.
09:52Hello, Kapuso!
09:53This is Glycelle Galpo.
09:55And today, we're here at Jose Rizal University in Mandaluyong
09:59to witness their pep rally as a show of support for the JRU Bombers.
10:05So, let's go and join me.
10:14Everyone's presentation was good.
10:40Still a six-point lead.
10:43And for the Mapuha Cardinals,
10:45both coaches having a lot of time to drop some plays
10:52and give out some reminders before we resume our game.
11:08This is a very crucial game for Perpetual.
11:10Because if they lose this game,
11:12their margin of error will be reduced.
11:16Two teams have been eliminated.
11:18San Sebastian and JRU.
11:20And after this, I think they still have three or two more games.
11:25So, it's just a matter of time.
11:27Every game is a must-win for them now.
11:35It's going down.
11:40Mapuha.
11:43Mapuha.
11:46Cuenco from the corner.
11:47Oh! Cyrus Cuenco!
11:49Another one!
11:50Still on fire.
11:51Three of four now from the three-point field.
11:54Here's Cyrus Cuenco.
11:55And this is now the biggest lead of the game.
11:59Nine-point lead now for Mapuha.
12:04Pen down for Pagaran.
12:05Mabawi.
12:07That was a long two, but he missed it.
12:10Mabawi on two.
12:11Bubilia to Escamiz.
12:12Escamiz gets denied!
12:15Oh, foul.
12:18Technical foul for Coach Olsen.
12:23Here's that third triple by Cyrus Cuenco.
12:26Still hot.
12:27Now, I want to see this again.
12:31Look at the elevation.
12:41It looked like an all-goal.
12:42It was clean at the top.
12:59A technical foul called on Coach Olsen Gracela.
13:11At the top, it looked like an all-goal block,
13:15but the referee called it a body contact.
13:19Pagaran missed it.
13:35They're just good.
13:40They're good.
13:47Second free throw for Escamiz.
13:56Escamiz breaks into double digits.
13:57Ten points.
14:06Okay, last turnover there for Perpetual.
14:11You can see Coach Olsen's frustration.
14:19Mabu has been on a 16-4 run.
14:24In the last almost six minutes, Escamiz fade away.
14:28Min Escamiz
14:31is heating up.
14:3412 points for the reigning MVP.
14:40It's the limit.
14:41It's time to join.
14:47Hi, Kapuso.
14:48My name is Julia Ong,
14:49and we are here today at the Lyceum of Philippines University
14:53to have fun and have fun in their February.
14:56So, let's go.
14:57Come with me.
14:58Let's go!
15:03There's no chemistry in dancing.
15:05That's what the host school of NCAA Season 100,
15:11the Lyceum of the Philippines University,
15:14We are all out because not only this.
15:17We expect a shootout.
15:21Yes, we see Chris Pagaran.
15:22He's the one leading the scoring points here at Perpetual with nine points.
15:26This is Lawrence Mangubat with five points.
15:30Actually, so far in Perpetual,
15:31no one has scored double digits.
15:33Chris Pagaran is the only one with nine points.
15:42Well, over on the other side,
15:44Escamiz, Jovilla, and Cuenco
15:47have 12 points each.
15:49So, that's a combined total of 36 points.
15:57So far, Mapua outscored Perpetual this third quarter,
16:0118-4.
16:03That's pretty big.
16:05Big quarter for Mapua.
16:07Let's see if Perpetual can recover before the end of the quarter.
16:15And another turnover for Perpetual.
16:19Perpetual's turnover is next.
16:22They now have 17 turnovers.
16:32Escamiz.
16:34Oh, good hand.
16:36On the shot clock.
16:37He has to shoot.
16:38Escamiz. Short.
16:39Air ball.
16:56It's now a 13-point game.
16:57Mapua's lead is growing.
17:01Cuenco.
17:10Escamiz.
17:18Pagaran.
17:21Elbow chopper.
17:23Escamiz.
17:24Pagaran.
17:30Cyrus Cuenco.
17:32Not this time.
17:34Just the second miss for Cyrus Cuenco from the 3-point field.
17:39Surprisingly, Clint Escamiz only has one rebound in this game.
17:43It was that rebound moments ago.
17:46Pagaran.
17:47Off the glass.
17:49Pagaran was free-throwing earlier in the paint.
17:55Escamiz.
18:02Nobilia.
18:04Oh, he wants a clear out.
18:06He said, give me one.
18:07Oh, he lost it.
18:10Too bad.
18:13Sometimes as a one-on-one player, you just want to call your own number.
18:24Pagaran.
18:28JP Boran.
18:29Direct to end for Nobilia.
18:44Boran.
18:47Iverson. Action for Perpetual.
18:52JP Boran.
18:55Pow.
19:130-2 so far JP Boran.
19:21Oh, 0-3.
19:24So far, Boran hasn't shot a free-throw yet.
19:43Wow, it's been a nightmare from the line for JP Boran.
19:470-4 for JP Boran.
19:55Cuenco.
19:57Cabonete.
20:00Concepcion.
20:03It's really hard to get a defense like that from Perpetual, the 1-3-1.
20:07Because given the length of Perpetual, it's hard for them to drive, it's hard for them to block.
20:12And their wingspan is also long.
20:14It's really hard to get inside.
20:18Now, Nobilia is in for Perpetual.
20:243-3 for the shot clock.
20:26Cuenco.
20:28Again, in the face of danger.
20:32Can't give him space now.
20:37Sevilla.
20:38Can he provide a spark for the Altas?
20:41Pass was too low for Pizarro.
20:46Cuenco.
20:48Penasso in the corner.
20:49He got away.
20:50Too strong.
20:55Perpetual ball.
21:1115 points to lead all scorers in the game.
21:174 of 6 from 3-point field for Cuenco.
21:24Pancale.
21:25Pressure.
21:26Go Cruz.
21:28Mark can't catch it.
21:29Finally.
21:30Ah!
21:31Panpas.
21:33Recto.
21:341-0 to beat Recto.
21:38Dangerous ball there for Recto.
21:43And Sevilla could not save it.
21:55Horn.
22:08Under two minutes left here in the third.
22:20Mahouba.
22:21Favorite spot.
22:22Poor ball though.
22:3714-point lead for the Cardinals.
22:40Montemayor.
22:42Sevilla to Boral.
22:46Give it goal.
22:47Sevilla open.
22:48Oh!
22:49He missed it.
22:52It's a bit cold in the afternoon.
22:56And Recto draws a foul.
23:10JC caught it.
23:14JC Recto's hang time is amazing.
23:187 of 15 now from free throws for the Cardinals.
23:24JC Recto 0 of 3.
23:28So Boral and the Cardinals are both struggling in the free-throw line.
23:33Finally.
23:3715-point game now for Mapua.
23:4710 down.
23:484 more to go.
23:49Cruz.
23:50And Recto.
23:511-0 to beat Recto.
23:53And Sevilla open.
23:54Oh!
23:55He missed it.
23:56It's a bit cold in the afternoon.
23:587 of 15 now from free throws for the Cardinals.
24:03FGC.
24:058 on the shot clock.
24:07Almost a steal for Bacale.
24:10Good D for Mangubat.
24:13Pizarro, offensive rebound.
24:15Pizarro.
24:17Will have the break for the bonus.
24:19That could give them a confidence booster there.
24:29Just effort plays right there.
24:32By Pizarro.
24:5439.4.
24:55That is the time remaining here in the third.
25:03Boral is really putting pressure on top.
25:07Which is a good strategy because it's really long.
25:09So it's going to be hard for the guards to pass or attack.
25:16Abonete.
25:17That's his second 3-point attempt.
25:19Abonete.
25:25JP Boral will head to the line for 2.
25:28JP Boral will head to the line for 2.
25:32Abonete.
25:3520 attempts all in all this season.
25:38Season 100.
25:39But he's only confident on 3 of those 20 attempts.
25:50I feel like down the road though,
25:53these big players of Makua,
25:56who won't be big in the pros,
25:58will have to develop an outside shot.
26:00That's true, that's right.
26:01Especially if you're undersized big,
26:03you need to figure out what your advantage is.
26:06So it's good if you still have 3-point shooting.
26:14Boral, a player with positional size, a wingman.
26:17But he's got length and athleticism.
26:20He's left on abonete shooting.
26:2912.3 seconds remaining here in the third.
26:46So far it's Makua's quarter, 22-9.
26:50Oh, an unsportsmanlike foul.
27:05That's on abonete.
27:21So let's see if Perpetual will take advantage of this.
27:32First free throw made.
27:36It goes to JP Boral, 1 of 5.
27:51Makua trying to chip away,
27:54or Perpetual trying to chip away,
27:56on this Makua advantage.
28:016 of 11 from the free throw so far,
28:04this Perpetual.
28:054 misses coming from JP Boral.
28:14Interception by Concepcion.
28:16Concepcion, oh!
28:18And it lands to Hodea.
28:20Hodea goes for the air.
28:26And the referees make sure that
28:28no untoward incident happens here
28:31as the players get it tackled.
28:34And the respect was there.
28:4110-point lead though for the Makua Cardinals.
28:4451-41 as we head to the fourth.
