    Is Manny Pangilinan in the building? The business tycoon may have a hand in the brownout as his team is trailing. He can't afford to go down in the series. hahaha!

    Yup along with the lights there goes the momentum too 2 minutes-- a loooong time in basketball. Hopefully Barako keeps their composure and energy.

    If the Asian teams want the key in beating a Chot Reyes team they just have to watch Barako play

    I don't think so. Having a Marcus Douthit there will make the team a lot different from this TNT team. Douthit can create on his own in case the play fails, unlike Donnel Harvey.

    But if Javale would be chosen. Then I agree to your statement.

    True true. Douthit does change some things. i was more alluding to the fact (if you were watching the game) that Willie Miller were owning TNT guards and posting them up all night that Chot decided to show some zone in the 4th quarter. The zone did work and TNT came back but Barako just took advantage of their bigger guards to get that healthy lead.

    Barako with a 4 point lead with seconds to go. Virtually over...

    Chot Reyes' small ball is getting exploited by Baculi and he is making it look easy. They overload defensively on the mismatch and Barako punishes them with open 3s. If a local club can pound on their size superiority then what more against the bigger Asian teams

    Exactly what i was alluding to.

    Anyway, Chot's style has always been a feast-or-famine team-- if it's working (watch Game 2) it's a thing of beauty to watch and very difficult to beat. If it's not working (like Game 1 and tonight) it's sore to the eyes-- and the ring (they shot 6 of 28 from beyond in this game.) To beat the best Asian teams, i am liking this style actually.

    There you go. The ploy of icing the game via brownout to help TNT comeback backfired. haha!

    I honestly think that TNT did not deserve to win tonight. They played sloppy ball from the get go. Monta Castro scored only 4 pts in the 1st half. Ranidel played poorly while Alapag stooped down to the level of Tubid and had himself thrown out.

    As for Barako Bull, they played extremely well from start to finish. Aggressive early and did not falter despite the rally of TNT. The old guys won again. In street slang, "na mama sila ng Barako".

    imagine that happening when we host the fiba asia...... in the finals..when our team is about to choke in the final minutes or in a do or die game against jordan or sokor, we can literally turn off their chances of winning. hehe

    wow!

    1. chot is set to choke big time again.
    2. Chot's small ball and "systematic" style of coaching was exposed by Junel Baculi,
    3. Small ball was exposed by Baculi as he pounded everyone in Texters' line up, in short MINAMA sila

    1. Please re-define choking. Barako is playing better than TNT in 2 games out of 3. No collapse of sort from TNT.
    2. Let's send Baculi to coach in FIBA Asia?
    3. In Game 2, that small ball produced over 110 points to embarrass Barako. Again, when it works it's a thing of beauty. When it doesn't, Chot struggles to adjust. i guess we all just have to pray that it works fine at the right time come FIBA Asia

    choke? i would not call it choking, moreso choking big time if they do lose the series. their the no.1 seed for sure but this is the semis already and they are playing a good team with a better than average import (and a winner at that) and a good coach.

    cone and bmeg choked last phil.cup vs powerade.

    petron choked vs tnt last phil. cup semis after going 3-1.

    Nope. The upset may still happen. hehehe

    So long as TnT shoots from the outside like a bunch of blind pistoleros, then the Bulls have a legit shot.

    that would mean technical fouls for sure in fiba games lol. chot should practice yoga now so he'll be in full-restraint mode in 2013.

    why not Kerby just ask for a trade again? why not try playing for Barako Bull, his 1st team in the PBA, I guess, he will definitely be given the playing time he deserves!
    Not only does God play dice, but sometimes he throws the dice where we can’t see them.
