00:00Meanwhile in basketball, Gilas Pilipinas suffered another defeat against New Zealand 94-86 in the FIBA Asia Cup 2025 this Thursday at King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
00:10Despite a strong performance from Justin Brownlee who scored a game-high 37 points and made seven three-pointers, Gilas Pilipinas could not prevail.
00:18Similar to their game against Chinese Taipei, Gilas found themselves trailing by 18 points early, only to close the gap to just three points, 85-82 with four minutes remaining.
00:30However, the Tall Blacks relied on veteran play of their starting point guard, Taylor Britt, who delivered several key baskets to stave off Gilas' comeback.
00:38Gilas will next square off against Iraq with both teams having 0-2 record in the tournament.
00:44At the beginning of the games, we were coming out, we know what we're supposed to do, but we're still shell-shocked.
00:51And you know they're going to shoot threes, you know they're going to play fast.
00:56And, you know, we already knew that, but they still did it.
00:59So, second half, we're playing the way we're supposed to, and I mean, I'm just hoping that we carry this momentum to the next game.
01:08All right, let's go.
01:09Let's go.
01:09Let's go.
01:10Let's sometimes get these dimensions to where we are going to have a fixation.
01:10Tig головist and there's limitations to what we're going to be.
01:11Let's go.
01:11Let's go.
01:13Let's go.
01:15All right, let's go.
01:25Let's go.
01:26This one.
01:29All right.
01:31Once we're done, let's go.
01:31This one's gonna be better.
