00:00 On the other side, it'll be Jason Perkins trying to slow down Phoenix Super LBG.

00:05 JB Mo from there as well, tip off from Honda, official motorcycle of the PBA.

00:10 Hello, welcome to the show.

00:12 Phoenix just hasn't gotten back into form yet here so far.

00:17 That's right, after a win versus Terra Firma, they lost their rhythm.

00:22 I like how you say they're looking scary even if CJ Perez is not being scary.

00:27 And getting the shot right off the buzzer.

00:30 Kenneth Uphead tying it up at 2 apiece.

00:32 Marsha Lasser hit a long 2 a while ago.

00:34 Coach, you take a look at the Phoenix Super LBG this conference.

00:38 It feels like they had such a talented import last time.

00:42 And Jonathan Williams III as Rodney Brondell doubles up the lead here for the San Miguel Beermen.

00:47 They had such a great import, Jonathan Williams III, that when he finally left due to this being a Huskies-Venom conference,

00:55 the adjustment hasn't really happened here yet for Phoenix.

00:58 Well, definitely they're missing a big guy that can get a lot of rebounds for them,

01:05 that can block shots and defend the paint.

01:07 Something that Williams provided for them.

01:12 Nulls is forward from Pungasinand.

01:14 Number 3, Jason Perkins.

01:18 Head coach of the Viewer Masters is Jamaic Harian.

01:21 Number 13, Marsha Lassiter.

01:25 And at center from Pinabungahan, Cebu, number 15, Shunbar Bahardo.

01:31 Very high standards, but he's been trying to contribute in different ways.

01:34 RJ Azul, in that round to Tuffman, attacking Marsha Lassiter.

01:38 Tuffman, oh great find inside Pumokon.

01:41 They're trying to get the win, even if San Miguel is their next opponent.

01:46 Yes, so they can get a rebound.

01:48 We just saw that 3-point shot from CJ Perez.

01:53 Has stints with the National Team as well.

01:57 CJ Perez, oh, smashes in a 3.

02:00 Yes.

02:01 And when you're a 7-time MVP, you're allowed to do that.

02:05 Yes, definitely.

02:06 Well, he's developed a lot of new skills over the years.

02:12 Oh, what a find, coach.

02:13 I'm so sorry.

02:14 Yes, Roddy Brondial.

02:15 Turnover for Tuffman.

02:16 I'd encourage him to keep penetrating because of that length.

02:22 Richie Rivero into this contest.

02:24 Again, it's always great to see one of the crowd's favorites.

02:26 And he'll get that nod, coach.

02:28 Oh, yes.

02:29 And Richie has always--

02:31 He can go.

02:32 Yes, Richie has always been a tremendous scorer.

02:36 Wherever he played, even when he was in high school and then college,

02:40 and then, of course, here in the PBA, we're just waiting for him to really explode.

02:45 Terrence Romeo thought about it, gets it back.

02:47 Terrence again.

02:51 Well, Terrence Romeo, the awareness was there to see the shot clock was expiring.

02:56 Still getting the shot to fall, despite the good defense played there by Phoenix.

02:59 Yes, 24 points for Terrence Romeo in this game.

03:04 Jason Perkins getting in his bag here, coach.

03:07 Oh, yes.

03:08 Win championships in the UAAP in different schools.

03:13 Let's take a look at this again.

03:14 Terrence Romeo getting the ball back there straight away from Moldau.

03:17 15 seconds on the shot clock.

03:19 Rivero almost loses it.

03:21 Geron Deng gets it, gives it to Jericho Cruz with a touchdown.

03:25 Marco Harto, he was hit in the face a while ago by Simon Camacho.

03:29 Probably, assuming we're going to get a look at that as--oh!

03:32 Fresh off the bench, Alejandro.

03:36 You never know, maybe the next PBA player is attending those camps.

03:39 Oh, yes.

03:40 Moldau, too, going inside, misses out there.

03:43 Trogliano cleans up his mess.

03:46 Well, this is another guy, Don Trogliano, who is an excellent rebounder.

03:50 He had nine rebounds against ENT.

03:54 He also averages nine rebounds per game, so you need to block him out.

03:58 Richie Rivero gets free.

04:03 Shot in and out, Dave to the offensive rebound.

04:05 Alejandro.

04:06 Oh, he's hot, coach.

04:10 [Indistinct]

04:12 Gets the floater up, no good.

04:14 And the ball pops up like a cord, Salado again.

04:17 But no, gets it a go.

04:20 He's going to cue the timeout because all of a sudden--

04:24 Times it, getting free, can't get the ball, though.

04:31 Oh, and another great defensive stop there.

04:33 Here's Moe with a lay-in.

04:38 [Indistinct]

04:39 Or at least the last shot of the first quarter, and has a couple threes already.

04:43 McManuel, welcome back.

04:46 Injury to have, to be fractured.

04:51 It's very painful, and he doesn't even have any mask to protect it.

04:56 Trying different things over and over again to get the better of San Miguel.

05:00 Simon and Siso left wide open.

05:02 That's one guy you do not leave open.

05:05 And almost a turnover, eventually completed.

05:08 CJ Perez on the run now.

05:10 CJ attacking, Marcio in the corner.

05:13 Yes!

05:15 In this conference from three, and CJ Perez knew that, saw that,

05:20 and Marcio buries a triple to up the lead in San Miguel's BMN 40.

05:25 Update on what happened at the halftime break in just a bit.

05:28 As Marcio Lasswehr tries to get another two, no good.

05:31 CJ Perez there to collect for his 15th point.

05:34 They're going inside now, trying to attack Chris Ross at the post.

05:37 Larry Muya gets a big three to ball for Phoenix.

05:41 CJ Perez hit a big three a while ago,

05:43 and San Miguel are looking really good when they're running the ball, Coach,

05:47 as Junmar Fajardo going back to the post,

05:50 and just such a technical, technical player.

05:56 Take a look at this again.

05:57 Junmar Fajardo gets slapped in the face, but it doesn't matter.

06:00 Junmar gets two.

06:02 Yes.

06:03 Phoenix trying to stay within touching distance here, Coach.

06:05 Oh, yes.

06:06 They're really competing, and that was the message during the halftime.

06:11 These layups have been a story here for Phoenix coaches.

06:14 Don Trolliano sidesteps and gets two.

06:17 That was already great defense by Kent Nappen,

06:19 but better off face basket and take jumpers like that.

06:23 The basket has not been kind for RDS.

06:25 Oh, great pass.

06:26 CJ Perez.

06:29 The San Miguel BMN, courtesy of their high octane play,

06:32 CJ Perez getting the lay in, and the great move.

06:38 He was such a competitive guy and really made it a show for all of our fans at Bacolod.

06:44 And all over as Jennifer Cruz getting two right over the extended hand of Sasha Camacho.

06:51 I feel bad for Phoenix because that was such great defensive effort, as you can see right there.

06:57 They were very active.

06:59 It's been all San Miguel here in quarter number three after playing excellent basketball in the first two quarters.

07:04 Yes, a big run by San Miguel before the timeout executed with that lob pass to Richie Rivero.

07:11 Eight points already for Richie.

07:13 Jennifer Cruz wide open for three.

07:17 Everybody's just scoring for San Miguel at this point.

07:20 Up to ten points already.

07:22 And Matthew Daves using his athleticism against Mo Tautua will shoot two free throws.

07:27 Yes, great job by San Miguel still setting up their defense.

07:33 And you know that Marshall, the feed to Jericho Cruz.

07:37 Yes, that was a great one-handed pass.

07:42 Terrence working against pass.

07:45 Richie Rivero goes on the attack.

07:47 Oh, what a finish from Terrence Romeo.

07:50 This is another classic Terrence Romeo highlight.

07:54 Well, first of all, the great ball handling and right there.

07:58 He hid the ball.

08:01 Salado going inside and almost another turnover.

08:04 Alejandro forces a shot.

08:06 Oh, he gets in a fall again.

08:08 He ends the third quarter like he ended the first.

08:11 Refusions from JJ.

08:13 So it is a long two as the referee.

08:16 And there it is, the buzzer beater from him.

08:19 And crimson lead down to 11.

08:22 And that gives it to Alejandro who's been great off the bench here for Kutu Chamay Karin.

08:27 Inside to Daves.

08:28 There was a mismatch.

08:29 Bucket and one.

08:30 Take a look at that little feed there coming from Alejandro.

08:36 There was a mismatch if you ever saw one about Matthew Daves.

08:40 JJ Alejandro still having a hard time here.

08:42 Jericho Cruz misses out on the bunny.

08:44 Matthew Daves trying to hold on to possession here.

08:46 Eventually he hands it off to Richie Rivero who's now running, gunning.

08:51 Salado back to Richie.

08:53 Tees up three.

08:55 Oh, Daves with another rebound.

08:57 Daves, a turn, gets it, fall.

09:00 Especially in the interior for Phoenix.

09:03 Motautua tries a three and splashes that home.

09:07 How do you stop San Miguel when even Motautua could light up from downtown?

09:13 Still a nine-point ball game here.

09:15 Phoenix are not out of this yet.

09:16 Salado caught in no man's land.

09:18 Marshall Lasseter feeding Jericho Cruz.

09:23 Yes, more turnover points for San Miguel.

09:26 Three-year deal last week as the chief tactician for the Fuel Masters.

09:31 Now this comes after the team's impressive fairytale run during the Commissioner's Cup

09:35 where he led them to a Final Four appearance for the first time since 2020.

09:40 Now Phoenix management recognized Jose Jamai for his invaluable role in guiding this young team

09:45 through adversity beyond the X's and O's of the game.

09:49 Now this was even evident earlier.

09:52 It's very competitive, and when you get a three-year deal,

09:56 that's certainly a huge confidence builder for any coach.

10:01 Matthew Daves hanging up in the sky.

10:04 84-90, still in favor of San Miguel Beerman,

10:07 but Daves has had an incredible fourth quarter here for Coach Jamai Carrin.

10:12 Terrence Romeo, though, falling away from Daves, getting two.

10:17 Yes, well, excellent offense being displayed by both teams.

10:21 Of course, Daves with 11 points already in this game, great penetration.

10:26 And Rafi Verano follows up Richie Rivero's miss.

10:30 Yes, great trace by Rafi Verano that time for the putback.

10:36 Terrence, Daves right in front of him, back in the zone, talking about the Phoenix Super LBG.

10:45 Terrence working on Dave, five seconds on display.

10:49 Terrence Romeo dances and scores.

10:52 Wow.

10:53 A big run, so even if they don't have a really big lead right now,

11:00 although after that basket it becomes a nine-point lead.

11:03 Let's take a look at this again.

11:06 Again, Terrence Romeo making that excellent pass to the cutting CJ Perez,

11:12 and contact was made with Jason Perkins.

11:16 Salado leading Jason Perkins up top.

11:19 Perkins, the feed inside to Verano, the reverse.

11:23 Oh, wow.

11:24 Using the left hand, great reverse layup for Verano against Junmar.

11:32 Again, Rafi Verano, five points in this game, they needed every bit of it.

11:37 Junmar against Jason Perkins, Perkins giving up so much size,

11:41 and the turnaround, J is good for Junmar.

11:43 Good attempt though, coming from Salado that time, getting the foul.

11:48 And almost trying to find Don Troiano.

11:52 Here's JP Moffon attacking, a miss is out.

11:55 There's the follow by Thompin, no good, and the layups just haven't been falling here

12:00 as CJ Perez shows them how it's done.

12:05 Perkins is dictating traffic here.

12:07 Quick three, oh, much needed here for Phoenix as they pull within single digits again.

12:12 Yes, well, Phoenix needs more of those quick baskets

12:16 because time is not on their side right now.

12:20 Again, almost desperate defending here, Marshall Lasseter, the feed to Jericho Cruz.

12:27 That's the problem when you keep double teaming, it allows open shots like that.

12:34 Thompin thought about it, hit three already, Perkins swinging things around here.

12:39 Eventually falls the way of JP Moffon, no foul, Moffon asking for a foul.

12:46 Ten-point lead here.

12:49 Jericho Cruz working on Perkins again, and that's a tough finish for Jericho Cruz.

12:54 Yes, despite that help from Thompin, Jericho still makes that layup.

12:59 Thompin misses out on the three, and it looks like San Miguel Bierman are out

13:04 for another victory here right after Easter Sunday.

13:07 Marshall Lasseter, rare miss from him.

13:10 Now JP Moffon walking this down.

13:14 And another turnover, that has been the story of the game here.

13:19 San Miguel Bierman will put a bow on this and a timeout on the floor here for Phoenix

13:24 because it was sloppy right after that.

13:26 Let's take a look at another turnover here.

13:28 Yes, it's a very weak pass coming from JP Moffon right into the hands of CJ Perez.

13:34 Find ways to get the score down.

13:39 Jason Perkins going to finish in close distance.

13:42 CJ Perez running, gunning, and is one point away from a 30-point ninth, 29 so far from CJ.

13:50 Yes, and showing no mercy is the Bierman.

13:55 JP Moffon getting the point there to trim down this lead to make it a bit more respectable.

14:02 And then here is Jericho Cruz on the attack.

14:06 CJ Perez, he's up three, and there it is, a 32-point ninth so far for CJ Perez.

14:14 Wow, a scoring machine.

14:16 CJ Perez is--

14:18 JP Moffon goes up for two.

14:24 Let's see how much CJ Perez can finish with.

14:30 Small tautua.

14:32 Oh, worked against the lata.

14:34 Gives it back to Jericho Cruz.

14:36 He's up three.

14:38 No good there.

14:40 So, coach, a comprehensive win here by a very good second-half performance

14:44 coming from the San Miguel Bierman.

14:48 And we wait the confirmation, and there's the final buzzer.

14:52 Finally, 116-102 here at the Big Dome in game number one of this Easter Sunday doubleheader.
