00:00 in the panic of AC.
00:01 These are the two teams who give up the lowest number of points
00:05 exactly
00:06 in this season so far.
00:07 So we can expect
00:08 not even a single part of the surprise.
00:10 It's just a matter of time.
00:11 There's a competing drop,
00:12 but I'm sure it will be over soon.
00:13 Good health side by Escamiz.
00:15 Escamiz with a steal, he will drive all the way.
00:18 And a hot start by the Jets.
00:21 You get your first taste of a loss.
00:24 Now you see really what this team is made of because coming into this
00:27 is the Red Hot Papua Cardinals, they're going to give the A.C.
00:30 a run.
00:30 Considering their height disadvantage, their efforts should not be less than 100%.
00:35 Let's see if their attitude...
00:36 You're not as brave as me.
00:37 Drive inside.
00:40 Oh, nice scooping layup in the paint by Kian Burpiza
00:45 to get the deuce and stop the bleeding for the general.
00:47 This is exactly what they aim to create in the 1-on-1.
00:50 And you see this on your screen right now, the quick,
00:53 nasty crossover, then giving them the fangirl roll.
00:57 He's going to the attack.
00:58 Wide open man, beautiful ball movement by the generals.
01:02 But the three-pointer was a waste.
01:05 But on the other end...
01:08 Kian Burpiza!
01:10 Good Burpiza.
01:12 Good pass.
01:15 Nice pass inside.
01:17 And he's not going to let it go.
01:19 He's going to get it.
01:21 He's going to get it.
01:23 He's going to get it.
01:25 Nice scoop.
01:27 And it wasn't wasted by Soriano.
01:29 Iglesiane.
01:31 Oh, a goal right there.
01:37 What a game.
01:39 These kids are not running any play-styles.
01:41 They're just attacking, challenging the defense.
01:43 Good extra pass by Paul Hernandez.
01:45 That's his shot.
01:47 Easy.
01:49 My wife was also doing this when they were in class.
01:51 And I was talking to him.
01:53 And his defense was not that healthy.
01:55 And Josejo is coming back.
01:59 The elbow.
02:01 Oh, he's just going to go for it.
02:03 There's a little bit of attack.
02:07 If you don't attack, you won't engage the defense.
02:09 Here's the middie.
02:11 But this guy here, he shouldn't let the ball go.
02:13 He should let it go cleanly.
02:15 Four points to start this ballgame.
02:17 Less than two minutes remaining.
02:21 Oh, beautiful shot inside.
02:23 Josejo continues to hunt here.
02:25 That's a broken play.
02:29 He's wide open.
02:31 That's a lot of guts.
02:33 If you feel it, you just shoot.
02:35 If you're on the middie, you'll get caught.
02:37 If you're on the free throw, you'll shoot.
02:39 Oh, beautiful.
02:43 An extra step.
02:45 One of the days that I was able to talk to Coach Jarman,
02:47 he laughed.
02:49 The value of collegiate players
02:51 always relies on their own body control.
02:53 Because if your base sport is martial arts,
02:55 it's all about control.
02:57 It's all about control.
02:59 Oh, basket is good.
03:03 Give it another shot.
03:05 And here we go.
03:07 Mapua starting to get their bearings.
03:09 They've trimmed down to five points.
03:11 You can see the size of
03:13 Cuenco,
03:15 Fernandez,
03:17 and Recto.
03:19 So, those three positions are switchable.
03:21 They're around six.
03:23 One of the heroes
03:25 who's been bravely fighting
03:27 for the generals is San Jose.
03:29 The game earlier,
03:31 you know, it's hard to instill
03:33 the players
03:35 the mindset
03:37 that they need.
03:39 And that is
03:41 the first two points of the game
03:43 for Ralph or Robin.
03:45 64 knees.
03:47 Starting to hum to their
03:49 half-court sets, Hammer.
03:51 But the defense is better.
03:53 Lean press to Robin.
03:55 That's good.
03:57 Without any since 1997,
03:59 they're winning the points.
04:01 Last year,
04:03 there was so much potential.
04:05 They said King Ortiz
04:07 gave them a second chance here.
04:09 Coach Jerson,
04:11 JP Magollano, Ping Pring.
04:13 Direct, gashing the defense.
04:15 Able to stand his ground.
04:17 Here, we see the drive of
04:21 Magollano. This is the leading score
04:23 of the EAC generals.
04:25 Touch of liberty.
04:27 It will stay with the generals.
04:29 And that has been the name of the game.
04:33 And expecting the physicality.
04:35 So you know how to operate
04:37 within that parameter.
04:41 Beautiful move inside.
04:43 Oh, good pass.
04:49 They have the challenge.
04:51 But it didn't go in.
04:53 Omanci Rodriguez.
04:55 Long, but Omanci is more athletic.
04:57 But that's how the game is.
04:59 Beautiful.
05:01 And that pinky play
05:03 for Clint Escamiz.
05:05 Magollano.
05:07 Beautiful drive.
05:09 And Magollano.
05:11 Magollano.
05:13 Putting a little...
05:15 For the EAC
05:17 at 9 points. Good seal.
05:19 Very good seal by
05:21 Jofit Soriano.
05:23 On the finish.
05:25 The old school shot in the paint
05:27 by Jofit Soriano.
05:29 To stop the bleeding for the Mabuha Cardinals.
05:31 And it is on the first half.
05:33 Angeles.
05:35 Beautiful drive inside.
05:37 And that is a play.
05:39 I think every card has in their bag already.
05:41 Pinoy style.
05:43 He's always
05:45 on attack mode.
05:47 Here's the Pinoy style.
05:49 Pinoy style.
05:51 Oh, good.
05:53 Pinoy style.
05:55 Good backdoor.
05:57 Good backdoor.
05:59 And the shot taken all by himself.
06:01 But he finds it in the
06:03 paint. No goal.
06:05 He would've dropped it.
06:07 But it didn't.
06:09 Oh!
06:11 That was a highlight.
06:13 First half.
06:15 This is what I want to see.
06:17 Angel Breaker.
06:19 Oh!
06:21 He just hit it.
06:23 What you see is
06:25 the guards are attacking.
06:27 To a wild throw.
06:29 NCA Season 106.
06:31 And we're already establishing the hero
06:33 that will be used for the all-out war next year.
06:35 The other teams are not waiting for next year.
06:39 They're not going to let anyone score.
06:41 Oh!
06:43 What did Minutai give to the first half?
06:45 I want to hear Ernie Porto about it.
06:47 Because maybe he's going to...
06:49 For Escamiz-Snowgoat.
06:51 Here comes the Generals. Extra pass!
06:53 Oh! Blocked!
06:55 A monster block.
06:57 He's going to the board.
07:01 Again.
07:03 It's like Jokic and Soriano.
07:05 At the EAC Generals.
07:07 As Fatima Reyes asked for support.
07:09 Choc and Coach Hammer.
07:11 Soriano took a shot.
07:13 3-pointer on the way.
07:15 But look at what Jacey Recto found.
07:17 Free.
07:25 And a rare 3-pointer.
07:27 That's all for now.
07:29 Thank you, Joc and Coach Hammer.
07:31 Thank you so much, Aliana.
07:33 There's an update on Warren Bonifacio.
07:35 He's so weak.
07:37 You're already warmed up.
07:39 You'll be back later.
07:41 And you can see the need for a 3-pointer.
07:43 Yes, exactly.
07:45 Okay.
07:47 He's going to score.
07:49 Looking for back shots.
07:51 Yes!
07:53 Alright, here we go.
07:57 Papua has responded.
07:59 But Cosejo with a beautiful response as well.
08:03 And that.
08:05 We'll just have to see if Soriano can get back into this game.
08:07 Because he's been playing such beautiful basketball thus far.
08:09 Beautiful shot once again.
08:13 And Cosejo has a...
08:15 We'll see.
08:17 This is the 3-point shot of Nat Cosejo.
08:19 Seconds for the parter.
08:21 For Nat Cosejo.
08:23 But this is a better play.
08:25 Euro dribble.
08:27 Take 2. 1-2 step.
08:29 Hit that floater.
08:31 It is coming to a 2-man game.
08:35 Warren for 3.
08:37 No.
08:39 3 pump fakes.
08:41 And Pivlinaman.
08:43 Good ball.
08:45 Beautiful block there.
08:47 That was clean.
08:49 And on the other side.
08:51 Cicilib first.
08:53 A lot of people are scoring.
08:55 That's all he needs to do.
08:57 But it's a beautiful pass.
08:59 It's like a ruscal.
09:01 You just have to look at it.
09:03 Excellent defense on that play by Brian Angeles.
09:05 That's 4 points.
09:09 For Captain Bull.
09:13 Door to go.
09:15 Angeles is free. Extra pass.
09:17 Pagulliano will take it all the way.
09:21 A lot of aggression.
09:23 Consistency.
09:25 That's possible.
09:27 Incoming squad.
09:29 We'll see how they learn from these experiences.
09:31 Top shot inside.
09:37 Game with Bonifacio.
09:39 Will try to work on Umpad.
09:41 Nowhere to go.
09:43 Salad 3.
09:45 Why are you leading?
09:47 Thank you so much, Angeliano.
09:49 They're doing a great job thus far.
09:51 In fact, they have a chance to take the lead.
09:53 Oh, another shot.
09:55 A shot.
09:57 A shot.
09:59 A shot.
10:01 And that will be a unmolested.
10:03 Chavo has 6 seconds to work with.
10:07 Chavo will have to create.
10:09 Oh, beautiful find.
10:11 Extra pass to Gusejo.
10:13 Good.
10:15 Voice under pressure.
10:17 He's fast.
10:19 The hot hand to the sportsman.
10:23 Ball of 3.
10:25 From the lead.
10:27 Mangoliano in a 2-man game.
10:29 Robin.
10:31 Low pipe. Floater. Gone.
10:33 JP Mangoliano.
10:35 Is it double digits at 10 points?
10:37 It's more important.
10:39 It's a 3-point lead for the EAC Generals.
10:41 Take a look at this unselfish pass by Robin.
10:47 A slight hesitation.
10:49 And a tough floater.
10:51 A kiss of the glass for Mangoliano and EAC.
10:53 They're up by 3.
10:55 Get back into this game as we approach.
11:01 The deep waters in our game.
11:03 Like this guy.
11:07 No need to hurry for the Generals.
11:09 Oh, and a steal.
11:11 Basket is good.
11:17 A costly turnover.
11:19 And Escamiz.
11:21 Able to get the ball off that turnover.
11:25 And of course a layup on the other end.
11:27 Our fourth tee change.
11:31 We have a sixth tee change.
11:33 And a heads up lay by
11:35 Clint Escamiz.
11:37 A nice finish.
11:39 (rock music)
