02:05Kung si Jonard, tita natin effort niya, buwis-buhay talaga.
02:12So any coach would appreciate the effort they put up, not just him but the rest of the guys.
02:19Sa panayam naman ng PDV Sports sa 6'2 forward na si Clarito, handa o mo na siya na muling gawin ang lahat sa susunod na laro para makabalik ang painters sa semifinals.
02:32Siyempre, yun, hindi ka pa rin pakampanto, sipag pa rin.
02:39Kailangan, focus kung ano yung sasabihin ng coaches, sunod lang, ano yung game plan nila, yun.
02:48Ang gagawin lang namin yung trabaho na.
02:50Sa ikalawang sagupaan naman, hindi pa nagsasara ang pangarap ng TNT tropang 5G na makasungkit ng Grand Slam ngayong season,
02:59na humirit din ng winner take all matapos talunin ang Magnolia Chicken Templados Hotshots 89-88.
03:07Nanguna para sa TNT si Roger Pugoy na kumamada ng game-high 30 points, samantalang nagambag naman si Calvin Oftana ng 21 markers.
03:16Hindi naman naging madali para sa tropa na makuha ang panalo dahil kahit nakalamang na sila ng pito sa uling dalawang minuto.
03:24Nagpakawala pa si Rome De La Rosa ng isang clutch 3-point shot na sinundan ng cold-blooded 4-point bucket mula kay Paul Lee para agad na makatabla.
03:34Sa uling 6.8 seconds ng laro na ipasok ni Kelly Williams ang isang free throw mula sa foul ni William Navarro para mahagyang makaabante.
03:43Naging selyo ng laban ang naging matinding depensa ni Pugoy kay Siguro Lucero na bigong makatira ng sanay game-winning basket.
03:52Sa post-game press conference, binigyang din ni TNT head coach Shot Reyes kung ano ang kanilang naging adjustment para hindi maulit ang kanilang naging pagkatalo sa Magnolia noong eliminations.
04:03Well, we made a concerted effort to cut down our turnovers because the last game we had 23 and we lead the league in the fewest number of turnovers.
04:14It was very uncharacteristic of us. Credit to Magnolia's defense, they're very physical, they're very long and athletic.
04:20The players they got, Xavier Lucero and Will Navarro and Jerome Massimoza, really added to their athleticism.
04:30So it forced us to a lot of turnovers and that was the number one thing that we talked about, our ability to just get good shots.
04:37We didn't shoot well today but at least we were shooting and we were not turning the ball over.
04:42But we still had, for me, too many 18 but at least we cut that down. It was already 12 in the first half.
04:48We cut that in half in the second half and that's what fueled our comeback.
04:52Para naman kay Pugoy, malinaw sa kanya na ayaw pa niyang matapos ang season ng kanyang kupunan.
04:59Ano lang talaga, yung mindset ko lang coming to this game is ayaw ko lang magpatalo, ayaw ko magbakasyon.
05:04Yun. Tapos, yun nga, binabasa namin yung defense ng Magnolia kasi last time nga, ang dami naming turnovers.
05:12Siguro, yun yung turning ko.
05:15Duling magditoos ang Enlex at Ross.
05:17Gayun din ang Magnolia at TNT sa Sabado para sa winner take all na gaganapin sa Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
05:25Sa biyernes naman ang ikalawang araw ng quarterfinals kung saan maghaharap ang may twice to beat na San Miguel Bierman at Miralco Bolts
05:32na agad susundan ang may twice to beat na Barangay Hinebra San Miguel kontra sa Converge Fiber Xers.
05:38Gary Loclares para sa Atletang Pilipino para sa Bagong Pilipinas.
