00:00 Tuesday. We're live here inside of Vino and Echo Center on your television screens right now via GTV, NCAA Philippines and JMA Sports PH. We're live streaming as well. Martin Aviera alongside Big Bo Belga taking care of business here in our first offering of the day. We have our reporters, Stephanie Benito reporting for Arrellano and Lizelle Nierves for Perpetual. First crack at the basket here for Arrellano.
00:29 Who lost last time out against the Benil Blazers. Perpetual are back on the winning track after getting a win. Big win against JREU to stay alive at least in our final four race.
00:43 They still have a chance in the final four even if they are in the bottom of our standing but still a chance is a chance so they need to make up for it.
00:55 Here's Arrellano, virtually eliminated already from final four contention because our number three and number four, San Beda and Benilde, both have eight wins now which is the maximum wins if Arrellano wins all of their remaining games.
01:12 But the tiebreaker is between San Beda and Benilde. Yes, most likely the two of them have the upper hand because in our first round they were able to beat Arrellano. So they are really in the lead in this.
01:28 That's the difference here in our match as MDO scores the first basket of the game of a step through earlier with nothing in favor of the Altas. And speaking of Perpetual, a Las Pinas based school.
01:42 Here's the first report and update from our court side reporter, Lizelle Nierves.
01:48 Martin and Bo Masganado and Ujauza Panalo, the Perpetual Altas are starting this game with high hopes to extend their winning ways after a very festive win against the GRU Heavy Bombers.
01:57 But the Altas are not content and said they should step up in their game today.
02:02 We heard from Coach Mike Sagigit earlier that despite their current seventh standing, the team is confident that they can recover this second round.
02:10 And Coach Mike always reminds the team to focus on the game, avoid turnovers and take care of the ball.
02:16 But aside from this, one of the steady guards of the Altas, Jasper Cuevas, will be sitting out of this game due to a qualifying foul incurred during their match against the Heavy Bombers.
02:24 But will we see the Altas snatch another win today? Let's find out, Martin and Bo.
02:27 Thank you very much, Lizelle. Here's Perpetual getting a ton defensively. Two quick baskets in transition. And it is a 6-0 start for the Perpetual Altas.
02:40 We'll be back after this break.

03:10 Back to our match. And this is the premise of our game.
03:21 The best of our Panic team, 5-7 Perpetual. Can they catch up and make it to the Final Four? Aureliano, 2-10.
03:29 Yes, and Perpetual in this second round, they were 2-1 in this second round. So most likely, if Perpetual's positive continues, they can climb up to number 4 or number 3.
03:42 They still have a chance. This is the only time Aureliano is looking for a match. Aureliano is just trying to get a win.
03:53 On your screens right now, JL Capulong at a nice game against the Binil Blazers.
03:59 Alright. Ah, JL just missing the shot. And speaking of Capulong, this is the first report from Aureliano's side. Stephanie Benito is here.
04:10 Good afternoon, Martin and Bill. Even though the Aureliano Chiefs is already out of the Final Four contention, this team remains to be hopeful that they will be able to finish this season on a high note.
04:22 Their goal though in the remaining games is to be a headache for the other teams.
04:28 Aside from this, I also talked to JL Capulong and he told me that they want to finish this season not only for the AU community but also for their brothers and sisters.
04:38 This is the reason why JL chose to be a Chief even though a lot of other teams are trying to get him.
04:47 And they are also hoping that this team will be able to win this season. Will these motivations be enough for them to steal a win against the Alpaces?
04:56 Let's watch out for that, Martin and Bill.
04:58 Thank you so much, Stephanie. What Big Bo and I were thinking earlier, JL confirmed that they want to be a headache for the other teams.
05:06 They still play the top teams on the top. If you beat them, it will be a headache. The middle back of our standing is crowded.
05:16 The only thing that can be done is to get the top two. But after that, it's already crowded. Eight, seven, six, and then this one, five.
05:25 It's really a headache. And this Arrellano is really a headache. There's a tendency that they will attack the other teams.
05:32 This is the previous basket of this Arrellano. This is the ball screen on top and a pull up for Billarente.
05:39 This is John Abis, able to get the contested jumper to go. But it's a fast start still for the Perpetual Altas.
05:48 The Perpetual 5 and 7 right now, simply put, they cannot afford to lose.
05:55 Most likely. If you want to have a chance, they need to win because they are number 7 in the spot.
06:05 The crowd is in a mess here. Martin for Omega.
06:09 Coming off the elbow, he attacked. This is the pull cord press of the Perpetual.
06:16 Malari passed it. And again, Arrellano having difficulty in trying to get through this press and this pressuring defense of Perpetual.
06:26 This is Kapulong, stopping and shortstop is good. And then butterned. This is JL Kapulong.
06:33 That's what the big men need. That kind of shot should be guaranteed.
06:39 JL Kapulong, again, leading scorer of Arrellano. Second leading scorer, at least behind JTalampas.
06:47 As Nitura is able to score on the reverse. Only played 4 minutes in the previous game, Cyrus Nitura.
06:54 Oh! Kapulong, down the middle, able to draw the foul. He will shoot too.
07:00 But that's hard for JL Kapulong.
07:04 This is the attack of Omega earlier. And Kapulong immediately blocked it.
07:12 This is the return from Perpetual. Cyrus Nitura going to his strong side that time.
07:20 And Kapulong able to get himself to the free-throw line.
07:23 What Stephanie said, a lot of people are talking to JL Kapulong because he was given a chance in a professional league.
07:32 Playing for his province, Pampanga.
07:36 So, that's where he showed what he can do against the big men.
07:42 And this kind of big men, you will rarely see it in our genes, the Filipinos.
07:50 Except if your peres is really tall. That's where you can get it.
07:55 But this kind of size of Kapulong, Umali, you will rarely see it.
08:03 This is a 6'6", legitimate 6'6" Kapulong.
08:07 That kind of body type, he can run, he can move his body well. That's a plus factor.
08:14 Jon Abes putting it down on the floor.
08:18 This is Peter Pan, Mark Kuma, Nitura. Oh! Good contest but Valencia got called out.
08:26 That was a good challenge but Cyrus Nitura's shooting hand was a bit too much.
08:34 A valid person for the Arellano University. Troy Valencia contesting this but it was too much.
08:41 Yes, the shooting hand was too much.
08:44 What I'm looking for in this perpetual is that Abes is a bit quiet.
08:52 He's not the type of Abes in the season 1980.
08:55 He's really scoring, he's really hurting.
09:01 One of the good things about this is that Nitura...
09:04 Nitura was giving peace to this perpetual offense as Valencia scores inside.
09:10 Oh! It's a miss by Sebastian Valencia.
09:14 They were breaking the press of that perpetual earlier and on that instance, they were successful.
09:20 Nunez getting ready to check in for the Altas.
09:23 In the meantime, they have the possession here.
09:26 Balo on the floor.
09:28 And this will be against Kapulong.
09:32 It's going to be on...
09:35 And then, Jake Talampas was called here. Jericho Nunez replacing Omega.
09:42 Denver Omega, this is...
09:46 Both of them are John Abes, underperforming in terms of scoring.
09:51 And only playing 19 minutes a game, this is MDO.
09:56 One of the problems of Denver Omega is being in foul trouble early.
10:04 That's what's causing him problems.
10:06 Same thing with Gosu.
10:09 That's also causing him problems.
10:11 This is a bit of a foul.
10:14 He's always active.
10:16 Omega is always following him.
10:19 13-6.
10:22 That's what the Bodjian staff is expecting.
10:24 If you're a senior, you should have a miss count.
10:29 That's it.
10:31 You know, you're a key piece of your team.
10:34 You need to know how to play.
10:38 You know when to use it, when to avoid the useless things you'll do.
10:43 That's what you need to learn.
10:45 The bench of Perpetual has been warned.
10:50 Roke fires at four of those against JRU Misfires.
10:56 Right there.
10:58 Netura, he's close.
11:01 Back shot is off.
11:03 Netura's boarding was a bit low, but it was still a good try.
11:09 Malayari, a little bit too strong on the three.
11:12 Valencia getting the offensive work.
11:14 Talampas' turn.
11:16 No.
11:18 And the rebound goes to Perpetual.
11:19 Two good looks from long distance missed by the Chiefs.
11:25 Halfway done here in the first.
11:28 They go to John Abes.
11:30 Abes the spin.
11:32 What a defense by Hieronimo.
11:34 Outlet.
11:35 It is a two on two.
11:36 Talampas hand time.
11:38 Talampas finishes.
11:39 That's what you expect from those veterans.
11:44 Coming off a turnover.
11:45 Kapulong got it.
11:46 He saw Talampas ahead.
11:48 He gave it to him.
11:49 After two straight big games.
11:51 Checked by JT Talampas against Benilde.
11:55 He's looking to get back his offensive rhythm here.
11:58 Paraguma face up three.
12:00 That's good.
12:02 That's what gives you confidence.
12:06 You don't need to pass that kind of book.
12:09 You need to shoot it.
12:11 Hieronimo zooming straight to the cup.
12:14 What a fearless finish coming from the rookie.
12:18 Let's show them.
12:20 He's starting to pick up.
12:21 They saw that it was a three on two pass break.
12:23 Hieronimo didn't hesitate.
12:25 He shot it.
12:26 He's back to back.
12:28 He's been doing this for a while.
12:30 Paraguma.
12:32 Doesn't get the bounce.
12:34 Talampas collecting the basketball.
12:37 This is going to be a foul on the bump.
12:39 Against the outlets.
12:41 Outlet again.
12:42 Talampas able to finish right here.
12:46 Even with Roque contesting that one.
12:49 Roque could have gotten that.
12:51 But Talampas had a bad time.
12:54 Let's see how athletic Roque is.
12:57 He got that.
13:00 He has a little...
13:02 A little left arm.
13:03 He has a little choke.
13:05 But he won't call offensive.
13:07 He's a little weak.
13:09 Paraguma nailing the three pointer on the other side.
13:12 15 to 10.
13:14 Valencia almost losing it.
13:17 Losing it completely.
13:18 Nunez is on the move.
13:20 Nitura.
13:22 He's going out.
13:24 Hieronimo picking up the basketball.
13:28 Bounce pass.
13:29 Nice feed.
13:30 That was a nice pass.
13:32 Good recognition from...
13:36 Danny Maliari.
13:37 Maliari going to Valencia.
13:40 12 to 15.
13:42 It's the score.
13:43 We'll be back.
13:45 [music]
13:49 [music]
13:53 [music]
14:20 Back to our coverage.
14:22 This is the first game of our Panic!
14:25 Again, we started from a far distance.
14:28 From the start of their first round encounter.
14:31 Because Perpetual right away dominated that game of a 22 to 10 first quarter.
14:37 Yes, that was the problem of this arena.
14:39 They were knocking on the door first quarter, second quarter, until the third.
14:44 Then the catcher would go to the court.
14:47 Of course, what you do is, if you have a big lead, you just have to pace the time.
14:51 You just have to finish it.
14:52 And that's what happened to them.
14:53 Even if they're catching up, it's not possible.
14:56 If I remember that correctly, Jade ran past in the second quarter.
15:01 The arena was close, but after that, it was all Perpetual Altas.
15:06 All right.
15:07 The ball is still here in Perpetual.
15:10 They have the three-point lead.
15:11 Let's see.
15:12 One of our top players here at NCAA and GMA Sports, Mr. Ledz Cayen-Hinan.
15:18 Happy birthday.
15:19 Yes, that's him.
15:20 Sir Ledz.
15:21 Sir Ledz, happy birthday to you.
15:22 Happy birthday.
15:23 I hope you're happy today.
15:25 Yes.
15:26 Here's the pull-up.
15:27 Oh, Jello Razon.
15:28 You should chill, Sir Ledz.
15:30 There.
15:31 That's from Buna.
15:34 17 to 12.
15:36 And Jello Razon, upon his entry, making a mark right away.
15:41 Here's Nitura.
15:42 He's going to get close.
15:43 Sidestep.
15:44 The feed.
15:45 John Avis is able to score.
15:46 There it is.
15:47 Nitura just committed the defense, and then he just dropped it to Avis.
15:54 Because Nitura is such a threat on the offensive end.
15:58 Yes, on one instance.
16:00 He's free.
16:01 He can shoot it out, but he attacked it.
16:03 And the result of his attack was positive.
16:06 Here's Valencia.
16:08 Valencia pulling the trigger.
16:10 And then he scored.
16:12 Here's Chris Pagaran, who also entered the game earlier.
16:15 John Avis.
16:17 Nitura thinking about it.
16:19 But instead, he will slow things down.
16:23 Offensive foul away from the basketball.
16:25 This is going to be against John Avis.
16:28 Here's the pull-up jumper of Jello Razon.
16:32 Again, he just made a mark.
16:34 Sirus Nitura, though.
16:36 The sidestep.
16:37 And the short feed.
16:38 He can shoot it out, but he tends to go and drive.
16:42 He committed the two defenses, and then he dropped it to Avis.
16:46 19 to 12.
16:47 Earlier, Arellano was already chasing.
16:50 Four consecutive points for Perpetual right after the timeout.
16:54 Lars Zunga in the game for the first time.
16:57 Did not play in the previous contest because he was under the weather.
17:02 And he didn't score.
17:04 There it is.
17:05 That's a nice float shot coming from T-Mac.
17:09 Going hard to the basket, and then...
17:12 Here, he's trying to get a shot.
17:14 Razon is trying to get a shot.
17:16 If they're trying to get a shot in the backcourt, they're doing it here.
17:20 The full court is a mess.
17:22 This Arellano University is a mess.
17:25 JP Boral.
17:27 Razon.
17:29 Extra pass.
17:30 Nunez inside.
17:33 Good recovery for Jello Razon.
17:35 He could have shot, but he saw his teammate was free to do so.
17:39 And he gave it to him.
17:40 Nunez didn't let him do it.
17:43 Back to a seven-point lead.
17:45 Oh, a little.
17:47 T-Mac retrieves.
17:48 Ongotan attacks again.
17:50 He's brainwashed, but it didn't go in.
17:53 And that's going to be a foul on the Altas as Ongotan was hustling to get that rebound.
18:00 Meantime, here's T-Mac Ongotan.
18:02 That's a nice patient move.
18:05 Slight two-step gather.
18:08 He could have shot, but he saw his teammate was free to do so.
18:12 And he gave it to Nunez.
18:15 That's a nice dime off the veteran leadership of Jello Razon.
18:20 Here's T-Mac Ongotan on the free-throw line.
18:23 Ongotan, a spitfire guard off the bench of this Arellano University.
18:30 Eight points, five rebounds against Benilde.
18:35 T-Mac has gone through a lot this season.
18:38 He injured his ankle, he crashed on our sideline.
18:43 But he's just trying to get it all.
18:45 He's tough.
18:46 He seems to be tough.
18:49 And you can see him moving.
18:51 He's like a kitten.
18:52 Yes.
18:53 He's really moving.
18:55 15-21.
18:56 That's why they put him on top of their 1-2-2 press.
19:00 Because he knows that at any given time, he can go for a ball, he can go for a rebound.
19:05 Here, he's rebounding Jello Razon on top of the press.
19:07 Razon forced to give up the ball.
19:10 Here's Carlo Ferreira off the handoff.
19:13 Three seconds to shoot.
19:14 They need to go.
19:16 One second left on perpetual shot clock.
19:20 This is enough time for a catch and shoot.
19:23 But the trigger man will be Chris Pagaran, who is also one of their best shooters.
19:28 7.3 seconds in total remaining in our first frame.
19:33 Pagaran to trigger this one in.
19:35 Oh, Boral got the open look.
19:37 It's over.
19:39 It would have been beautiful if he shot first.
19:42 Boral didn't score.
19:45 But that was a nice look off the inbound.
19:49 4.9 seconds left in the first frame.
19:51 Villarente brings this one across.
19:54 He needs to heave.
19:55 That is deflected by Carlo Ferreira.
19:59 At the end of the first ten minutes of action, it is the perpetual Altas on top by 6.21.
20:06 15. We'll be back for the second quarter of this game.
