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

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.

TNT acquires Poy Erram in three-team trade

PBA;

TnT Katropa has acquired center Poy Erram in a three-team trade involving NLEX and Blackwater.

The 6-9 slotman was acquired by the KaTropa from the Blackwater Elite, who reacquired Erram from NLEX in exchange for Anthony Semerad and Rabeh Al Hussaini.

In addition, the Road Warriors also acquired the rights to Blackwater’s 2020 first round pick and 2021 second round draft pick.

Blackwater eventually dealt Erram to the Katropa for Marion Magat, Ed Daquioag, Yousef Taha and TNT’s 2021 and 2022 first round picks.

I feel that the TNT is the clear winner in this deal and they become a clear contender in the coming All Filipino conference.

Update on the PBA Game last Friday, 22nd of December

For some unknown reason, I was not able to watch the game last Friday. Anyway, for those asking for updates here they are;

Via Rappler Sports: Rain or Shine escapes TNT for season-opening win

The Rain or Shine Elasto Painters had just enough gas left in the tank as they eked out an 82-79 win over the TNT KaTropa to open their 2018 PBA Philippine Cup campaign at the Cuneta Astrodome in Pasay City on Friday, December 22.

Via PBA: KG Canaleta delivers statement game in Meralco debut

KG CANALETA was quick to churn out an electrifying performance in his Meralco debut.

The 12-year veteran scattered a game-high 25 points and eight rebounds while keying the Bolts’ 103-98 victory over the Blackwater Elite Friday in a game kicking off their PBA Philippine Cup campaign at the Cuneta Astrodome.

There will be no game this Christmas eve, instead there will be a double-header tomorrow 25th December at Philippine Arena between NLEX Road Warrior vs Globalport Batangpier and Brgy. Ginebra vs Magnolia Hotshots.
