Barangay Ginebra one win away for its first All-Filipino Championship

December 7, 2020

Barangay Ginebra “Gin” Kings are one win away for taking home the 2020 PBA Philippine Cup “All-Filipino” Championship.

The Gin King withstand a late run by the TNT Tropang Giga, that saw their 17-pts lead cut down to just 3 with less than 5 mins left in the game. Veteran point guard LA Tenorio helped in weathering the TNT run by answering RR Pogoy three consecutive triples, with a back-to-back triples and a one-handed baseline floater to seal the game away at 98-88.

TNT Tropang Giga are playing without two of their key players because of injuriy, Bobby Ray Parks who have been sidelined since playing game 1 and Jayson Castro, who only played the first 3 quarters of Game 4, but was not able to return in the 4th quarter for aggravating a knee injury.

This latest win gives Ginebra Gin Kings a commanding 3-1 series lead with a chance to close out the championship series on Wednesday, December 9, at the AUF Sports Center and capture its first All-Filipino crown in 13 years.

The Scores:

GINEBRA 98 – Tenorio 22, Aguilar 22, Pringle 16, Thompson 11, Devance 8, Dillinger 7, Chan 6, Caperal 6, Mariano 0.

TNT 88 – Pogoy 34, Erram 19, Rosario 16, Enciso 10, Reyes 3, Semerad 2, Castro 2, Vosotros 2, Washington 0, De Leon 0, Montalbo 0.

Quarters: 17-14; 49-39; 76-60; 98-88.

Fuel Masters unleash big third-quarter salvo, repulse Kings

The Fuel Masters did more than that at the resumption of play, playing defense and exploding for 45 points in the third quarter en route to a 111-103 drubbing of the Barangay Ginebra Kings in the PBA Commissioner’s Cup at the Smart Araneta Coliseum Friday night.

Richard Howell and his teammates responded big time even when Alas was already out of the game, ejected on technical infractions midway through the fourth.

A great win for the Gin Kings.

But just like what the commentators said.. whether you win by 1 or by 100 points, this will only be counted as just one win.

I’m pretty sure San Miguel Beermen will bounce back on Game 2, which will be this Sunday, July 29 in Araneta.

Justin Brownlee is the best player of the game with 42 points, 7 rebounds and 9 assists!

The result spoiled a triple-double performance from Scottie Thompson, who poured in 10 points, 16 boards, and 16 assists, on top of two steals, and one assist in 42 minutes.

Japeth Aguilar also put up another offensive outburst with 32 points, along with four boards, two assists, one block, and one steal that went to waste.

The scores:

SMB 100 — Fajardo 25, Lassiter 23, Ganuelas-Rosser 14, Cabagnot 12, Santos 11, Espinas 5, Ross 5, De Ocampo 4, Pessumal 1

GINEBRA 94 — J. Aguilar 32, Mercado 14, Thompson 10, Devance 9, Ferrer 8, Tenorio 8, R. Aguilar 7, Cruz 4, Caguioa 2, Caperal 0

Despite having monster game from Scottie Thompson and Japeth Aguilar, the Gin Kings still came out short to close out the game.

This will be the fourth straight PBA Philippine Cup Finals appearance by the Beermen. They will face the winner of the NLEX – Magnolia series, which from the looks of things will be a long series.
