00:00Barangay Neverson-Miguel only needs one more win for the PBA Season 49 Commissioner's Cup.
00:09This is after they lost the 73-66 victory against TNT Tropangiga in Game 5 this week in Araneta Coliseum.
00:18Let's go back to the action with our teammate Daryl Oclares.
00:22In front of more than 12,000 basketball fans in Araneta Coliseum this week,
00:29the Never Say Die spirit of Barangay Hinebra-San Miguel is back
00:34to get closer to their title in the PBA Season 49 Commissioner's Cup.
00:40Jen Kings committed the pivotal 73-66 victory in Game 5
00:46against TNT Tropangiga to get closer to their Best-of-7 Final Series.
00:52TNT's start was impressive with a devastating defense
00:57to limit Justin Brownlee's Hinebra resident import to a field goal
01:03that was still waiting for his Tom Injury.
01:06Aside from this, Tropangiga's shooting was also hot
01:10because they were able to build up a 10-point advantage in the first half.
01:15In the second half, Jen Kings slowly took advantage of TNT's advantage
01:20and was able to score a one-point lead before the third quarter
01:24followed by a buzzer-baiting floater from Brownlee.
01:27In the fourth quarter, TNT was able to exchange a few points
01:31before Brownlee and Scottie Thompson were able to score the last eight points
01:37for TNT to advance to the next round.
01:40Brownlee and Thompson scored 18 points and 14 rebounds for JB
01:48while Scottie scored 16 markers and 10 boards.
02:11In the second half, I kind of figured it out
02:13and seen some places where I can pick my spot and take advantage of it.
02:18I'm truly inspired by the fans.
02:21It's been a while since we've won a championship
02:25so I just want to give my all for this championship and whatever it takes.
02:30Meanwhile, Hinebra head coach, Steve Koon, gave a compliment
02:34on Thompson's performance.
02:36He said that Scottie played a big role in winning Hinebra's game 5.
02:43There's just so much that Scottie does that doesn't show up on the scorecards
02:48or the points or rebounds.
02:50He gets those stuff but his impact is so much greater than that.
02:54And you can see that, I think, more today than just about any time
02:59that he just inspired the whole team.
03:01That Kalawit rebound he had was amazing.
03:05At a time when we weren't getting rebounds.
03:07The shots down the stretch, getting the ball to the right people.
03:11It was a brilliant, brilliant game by Scottie.
03:15Will Hinebra be able to finish or will Dwardai's team win Game 7?
03:20That's what we'll find out in Game 6 of the PBA Season 49
03:24Commercial Scouts Finals on Wednesday here in the Big Dome.
