00:00
This is a matchup I'd like to see Armitolatino go up against Calvin Oftana.
00:06
Armitolatino strikes first against the first two points of the game.
00:10
Again the second leading scorer showing no fear on that one.
00:14
Very much willing to attack anybody's defense.
00:18
Here's Galitato handing it off to Heruela.
00:21
Heruela, 3-1 extended jumper, doesn't go. Galitato gets the rebound.
00:27
Oftana driving inside again, dropping it off.
00:30
BGR puts it up and slaps it home.
00:33
You see that? If he just dishes it off, it's easy offense.
00:37
And then guess what? When the other team hedges a little too much, he'll have his shots as well.
00:41
But a great way to start off the game.
00:44
Puts on, sneaks it in under BGR.
00:48
Wonderful dish off and the phenomenal throw down slam a jam.
00:53
Referee's letting it go so the players must adjust.
00:57
Andamos.
01:00
Ooh, Galitato, strong move against the front line of Northport.
01:04
Henry's so big, you should just call him Hank.
01:08
That's a big boy.
01:10
As we see Joshua Monson shoot another lefty layup.
01:13
Or he could be even Australian rules, I'm not sure.
01:15
Alba closing up Galitato.
01:18
Nice looking move from Gen Calma.
01:23
Risky pass, gets it inside to Calma.
01:25
It's against BGR.
01:27
Whoa, spins! Gets it a go over BGR!
01:32
Oh, Tolentino almost got it.
01:35
BGR all the way. Oh, missing the gimme.
01:38
Kumuntin to Oftana.
01:40
And TNT takes advantage.
01:43
Don't forget, RPTV na, the official and exclusive channel of Papansang Liga ng Bayan on free-to-air.
01:49
Sabay-sabay nating sa Bayan ang PBA Season 14 Philippine Cup.
01:52
All games live dito sa RPTV para sa Pinoy.
01:56
As Christian Salas makes up for his turnover and gets a bucket there.
02:00
Bagtang Pierre going to work.
02:04
Up by seven against a very, very good TNT team.
02:08
This is a team that's three and one so far. Galitato, nice pocket pass from Calviroftan.
02:14
He was down seven from his 21 point average with just 14.
02:18
Five out of 14 from the field against San Miguel.
02:21
Also down one out of four from three point land.
02:25
Legs under that shot.
02:27
They had Munzon with Galitato out on that island right there.
02:32
Yeah, see, here's the blur, ivity coming out.
02:39
It's the adverb of blur.
02:42
Gets the lead down to one.
02:44
You need an impact here for Castro.
02:46
Tolentino, take a look at that, just missing.
02:48
Zeeb Lucero gets the putback plus the foul.
02:51
Again, that's a sign of a really good team.
02:54
And then you compound that with some really strong guys, guys who are very tough.
02:59
The stretch four has been a steady force off the bench for the North Port Batangpierre,
03:03
averaging around 10 points and more than four boards a game.
03:06
Four games into the conference and Zeeb told me he's fitting into the team just fine
03:10
and he's just been trying to be a sponge.
03:13
What a pass inside.
03:15
Kubutin just couldn't handle it.
03:17
That's tough.
03:18
Hit him in the bad part of his hands.
03:20
Nadie, no hesitation, pulls from the outside.
03:24
Well, what a story.
03:25
And also a product of the PBA 3X3.
03:27
Nice to see him thriving here in the 5-on-5s, Bulanadi.
03:31
Five straight points for Ale Bulanadi.
03:35
I'm telling you, Bulanadi, you cannot give him space.
03:37
And now guess what that does.
03:39
That gives guys like Lucero and Calma and even Tolentino some extra space.
03:47
As North Port now has a double-digit lead here late in the first quarter.
03:52
As they lead this one 25-15 with 2.52 remaining.
03:56
Goes for that shot.
03:57
A little bit of a heat check for him.
03:58
He already made two in a row, though.
04:00
That's a green, green light for Bulanadi as Kubutin gets those three points back
04:04
for the Tropa Kiga.
04:06
That would mean by the bottom, Pierre, already 28.
04:09
Nice to see R. Mahoy back in action here after beating his ankle early in the game.
04:13
Missing that floater, though.
04:16
Bulanadi gets it to Zamar.
04:21
Zamar pulls up, shoots, and scores.
04:24
Again, everyone that Coach Bonney puts in is playing at a high level.
04:29
The confidence that Coach Bonney has put in his team.
04:33
Losing.
04:34
And you can see, even by the coaches' stance, I mean, all three coaches standing up,
04:39
encouraging players to do their thing.
04:42
Uh-oh, here we go.
04:43
Lucero gets it a goal.
04:45
Too easy for Xavier Lucero.
04:50
Oh, another turnover.
04:51
Navarro gets it to Zamar.
04:54
Inside, Flores drops it off.
04:56
Nice.
04:57
Calma, beautiful ball movement.
04:59
Probably the easiest look he's going to get all night.
05:01
He missed it.
05:04
Calma, that's a view.
05:06
Nice pass inside to Calma.
05:10
That is right there the definitions of a team that if you're aggressive,
05:14
good things will happen.
05:16
And speaking of aggressive.
05:20
Gets it to Yu.
05:22
Fran Yu, nice pocket pass to Adamos.
05:24
Jumper falls for Ben Adamos.
05:26
That's a perfect setup.
05:29
What a setup.
05:30
Drive, draw, and dish, and Adamos delivers.
05:34
Again, just great IQ by Fran Yu.
05:37
Gallinato posting up, Adamos to traffic.
05:40
Gallinato muscling his way through.
05:43
Take a look at this one more time.
05:44
Strong move by Gallinato.
05:46
And, you know, some people would say, "Is that a possible offensive interference?"
05:50
BGR.
05:51
BGR because he grabbed the rim.
05:53
Flores back to Tolentino.
05:56
Oh, he gets Gallinato up in the air, drives, kicks it out.
05:59
Paraiso, wide open three.
06:01
That is good for Brent Paraiso.
06:04
Tolentino pulls up.
06:06
Can't drain the three.
06:07
Battle for the rebound.
06:08
Look at that.
06:09
Paraiso, Tolentino one more time.
06:12
This side, that falls for Tolentino.
06:14
The NT has been splitting their free throws here in the second quarter.
06:18
Tolentino, heat check, goes in for Tolentino, plus the foul.
06:23
And one.
06:24
So, again, when you're playing well, that rim looks bigger and bigger.
06:28
It's like throwing a little pebble into the ocean.
06:32
Just keeps increasing this lead.
06:35
Oh, but he misses that last one, but Flores gets the ball back.
06:40
Flores off the bench, makes a three.
06:43
That's a six-point play for North Forth on that possession.
06:47
Ouch.
06:48
I mean, if I'm a TNT, just absolutely ouch.
06:52
That was a very painful time down court.
06:55
Castro throws the ball away.
06:57
North Forth, everything going for them now.
07:00
Behind the back, Flores gets caught in the air.
07:04
Slows things down out to Munzon.
07:08
Tolentino loads up, shoots a three.
07:10
That's a three.
07:11
Tolentino with 25.
07:14
When it is your day, it's your day.
07:17
I don't know what his career high is, but he's probably thinking about it right now.
07:22
Armed with all the time in the world, and he swishes that one through.
07:26
Seems to be falling for the drop on Giga.
07:30
Salas drops it off.
07:31
Calma spins.
07:33
Wow, what a move, Calma.
07:36
Gentlemen, after a tough first half, giving up more than 60 points to their opponents,
07:41
I know, Andre and Vince, you guys wanted to know how the atmosphere of the locker room was.
07:45
And according to assistant coach Sandy Arespi-Pochaga, there weren't many emotions.
07:49
They got some good quality guys there on the bench that they haven't even used.
07:53
That's Hitami, Luntapai, and Balotaja.
07:57
Whoa, what a dribbling exhibition right there for Salas.
08:01
Armando Tolentino takes it away, shoots a three, misses the open three.
08:07
Oftana's going to attack now, Munzon spins.
08:10
Wow, just a strong move by Calma and Oftana, and that forces Coach Bonny's hand on demand
08:15

08:19
Register now for free as JM Calma, going downhill once again, gets another bucket for the drop on Giga.
08:27
You know, just doing the right things at the right time.
08:31
I mean, that was a nice play right out of the timeout.
08:34
And a good job, ooh, and a steal there by Munzon.
08:37
Let's not forget, Munzon leads the league so far in steals as Rosales kicks it out to Munzon.
08:42
Finds himself in the three-point line, and he drains a three.
08:47
A broken play gets better for the Baton Pierre.
08:50
Just not a good sign for TNT when, you know, when he starts hitting those shots,
08:55
it even makes the defense have to extend a little bit farther.
08:59
It's just difficult.
09:01
Save, trying to get that charge.
09:03
Pogoy is on fire right now, drains another three-pointer.
09:08
TNT, Oftana driving.
09:10
Look at that, the hands of Joshua Munzon.
09:12
Here we go, showtime.
09:15
And he lays it in.
09:20
Pogoy, RR has been on fire, and he gets another one.
09:24
But there's going to be a foul.
09:26
Smart play by Zamar, not a lot of time left here in the third quarter.
09:32
Zamar, inside, Flores with a finish.
09:37
That's tough.
09:39
They played pretty good defense for about 22 seconds, and then right at the last minute,
09:44
what a nice pass, and what a nice nifty left-handed shot.
09:48
This is the biggest lead of the game for Northport, 31-point lead right now for Dabat-Tampere.
09:55
Aurien, again, not shy to shoot.
09:57
Finally makes a three.
10:00
Turns the ball over in that first possession.
10:02
But Zamar turns the ball over.
10:05
Someone's got to tell them.
10:06
What a block there by Zane.
10:08
Yeah, definitely.
10:10
Two-point saving block there, but maybe he should have gave up the two
10:15
because then they got a three right after that.
10:17
Kim Aurien really going in hard.
10:19
Again, you can't really say anything negative about Kim Aurien's production.
10:23
He's just, you know, whatever you give him, he'll take it.
10:26
Back-to-back threes by Kim Aurien.
10:28
Think about this, first and second quarter is dominated by Northport, 32-29.
10:32
That's all he is.
10:34
It's not like he's playing flashy or making all the--
10:38
Kubutin now attacking.
10:40
Takes it out, Montalbo.
10:41
Three seconds, has to shoot.
10:43
Three-pointer.
10:44
It's good.
10:45
Big shot there by Montalbo.
10:47
Points in the paint.
10:49
24, TNT, 44, Northport.
10:52
So they are getting inside.
10:55
Kim Aurien with another three.
10:58
Oh, risky pass by Kelly.
11:00
That was going nowhere.
11:01
Navarro doesn't see it.
11:04
Aurien on fire.
11:06
Aurien with a three.
11:09
First things first, though, they got to get stopped.
11:11
Simple basketball.
11:12
Score and don't let the other team score.
11:15
So it had a lane.
11:16
Navarro is there for the putback.
11:19
Remember we were talking about not giving up any more layups?
11:23
They cannot afford to give up those shots.
11:26
Too many second chance opportunities here for the Batam.
11:30
They feel the TNT draw back.
11:33
Kim Aurien wants to go down low.
11:35
Pogoy with double digits, leading scorer for TNT.
11:38
Adds to his point total.
11:40
100% solid effort at all times from his team.
11:43
And again, that's a good habit to teach,
11:45
especially for a young team like this.
11:47
Take a look at that teamwork by Northport.
11:50
Can be more calm.
11:52
Because everything is taking --
11:54
And right now, Jason Plaza, oh, he has four in this game.
11:58
Not a good game for Jason Plaza.
12:01
But Pogoy is doing his thing.
12:03

12:08
Northport.
12:10
Calva shoots the jumper.
12:12
Oh, smishes that one through.
12:14
Take it for whatever -- any direction it comes from,
12:18
just take it for now.
12:20
Oh, but Zod drains a three on cue.
12:24
Hey, Northport is definitely a team to be reckoned with.
12:30
I think a lot of teams are watching this game right now
12:34
and saying, hey, anytime you're playing against Northport,
12:37
do not relax.
12:39
Aurean feeling it.
12:43
He gets split.
12:44
Pogoy from way downtown.
12:46
Yes, sir!
12:47
TNT with a run down.
12:49
He flies over the A board.
12:51
He's okay.
12:52
They got numbers, five versus four.
12:54
Pantrana still on the other side.
12:56
Tolentino takes advantage and gets two points.
13:00
That might be the "pamatay sunog" for the Northport bottom here.
13:05
You might be right, my friend, but again, let's see.
13:09
Uh-oh.
13:10
Taha takes a dip.
13:12
Pogoy drops Taha and drains the three.
13:15
Aurean almost at a steal.
13:17
They flip it over to Taha.
13:19
Taha shoots a three, airballs it.
13:22
Ball ends up with Taha, gets tipped.
13:24
Tolentino cleans it up and finishes for the bottom, Pierre.
13:27
Last two minutes.
13:30
Pogoy now being double teamed.
13:35
Has to kick it out to Ponferrada.
13:39
This, Flores all over RR.
13:42
The defense of Flores, RR.
13:46
Yes, sir!
13:47
34 for R. Pogoy.
13:50
Seconds on the shot clock, under a minute remaining.
13:52
Taha shoots a three.
13:56
Swishes it through.
13:59
That's a little statement shot, too.
14:01
That's like, "Hey, I can play this game.
14:03
Give me a little playing time, coach."
14:06
And that puts the lead back up to 18.
14:08
Aurean, what a game he's had so far.
14:10
18 for Kim Aurean.
14:12
And that was a nice "hazy" in-out dribble along the baseline.
14:18
Great, strong finish at the rack with the left.
14:24
Again, not giving up the basketball.
14:26
It goes all the way and sails in for the layup.
14:32
And Tomtaobo adding the finishing touches to the small game
14:36
as Northport will probably hold this.
14:39
But let's see if they can score this because, of course,
14:42
the margin matters here, the lead, the quotient system.
14:47
I don't think they're going to take that shot.
14:48
Perhaps not.
14:50
As Northport will head to their fourth straight win here in the
14:54
the pink cup after dropping their first one.
