00:00 Of course, it's so good to have him back.
00:02 We saw he made a difference in game four,
00:04 back to San Miguel, but could perhaps need more.
00:07 And almost on cue, there it is.
00:09 Jericho Cruz making an impact right off the bat.
00:11 - So a very important player for Magnolia,
00:15 not only for his defense, but also his scoring.
00:18 He's been scoring in the threes,
00:20 and here comes Magnolia,
00:22 in the three-point percentage in the league right now.
00:25 - Three of six from beyond the arc is Magnolia,
00:29 and Don Trogliano answers back with three of his own.
00:32 - Yeah.
00:33 - Three-point shooters in the entire league so far,
00:34 maybe underrated, so Trogliano answering back with three.
00:38 And Jericho Cruz, block two.
00:40 - We've talked about this too, guys.
00:43 - Well, the bench has been making a difference here so far,
00:45 Coach, as Tyler Bay misses again.
00:47 Tyler Bay has six points in this one so far.
00:50 Jericho Cruz from downtown.
00:54 Chris Ross backing down Gio Halala,
00:56 trying to find Motau Tua, almost lost it.
00:58 Don Trogliano, Jericho Cruz, right in front of Mark Barroca.
01:02 That's all the space that he needed.
01:05 Gio on the attack, 5-on-4 break here.
01:08 They find Mark Barroca in the corner, now in Sanggalang.
01:11 And a turnover here, Jericho Cruz on the run.
01:13 Mark Barroca's there to tap that away.
01:16 Jumar Fajardo trying to make sure
01:18 that the drought continues there.
01:20 Simon Atiso swinging around to see J. Perez.
01:22 Back to Simon, Jericho Cruz, he's had a hot hand.
01:25 And Cruz gets it to fall.
01:28 Magnolia got the ball back.
01:29 There you go.
01:30 And that was a, this was the extra pass
01:33 made by Simon to Jericho for the dagger three.
01:38 On the drive, on the attack.
01:40 Jericho Cruz, and why not again?
01:43 This time he missed, but they were able to get the ball back.
01:46 Try again, Jericho Cruz, they're saying.
01:48 And he'll go inside and he'll finish that way.
01:55 Don Troiano, one of the two bench scorers here
01:59 for the Sabancal Beermen.
02:00 But there's Jericho Cruz, the primary one.
02:02 Mo Tautua going inside and finishing.
02:06 Yeah, Cruz will try and shoot here.
02:08 Let's take a look at this again.
02:09 Jericho Cruz, the find here to Mo Tautua.
02:12 He's the masked Mo here.
02:14 It's the last of its possession talking about
02:16 the Sabancal Beermen, at least the best of its possession.
02:20 Goes ahead, Jericho Cruz.
02:22 Oh, he gets it to fall anyway, I believe.
02:24 With the help of Junmar Fajardo, who's been playing like what you said, hurt.
02:28 So, interesting foul situation here for Magnolia.
02:31 Iyengar Sanggalang and Tyler Bay have fouled four times already.
02:34 And that is an easy pick by Jericho Cruz.
02:38 Betty Boatwright working on Mark Barroca.
02:40 Shrugs him aside, and that's a basket and one.
02:43 Easy basket via transition for Magnolia.
02:47 You take a look at the third quarter towards the end.
02:50 They were simply consciously getting the ball in the hands of Junmar.
02:54 Fans miss him because he has been performing at a great level here.
02:59 Yeah, who obviously is a big part of that 2-0 run.
03:04 We'll see if they double team and then look for their shooters for those kickouts.
03:08 CJ Perez, oh, they left him open again.
03:11 And Simon Enciso in the corner.
03:13 CJ Perez, best player of the conference on the attack.
03:20 Looking for options. Why not Jericho Cruz?
03:22 Jericho Cruz will add on another three.
03:26 Iyengar Sanggalang as well for Miguel.
03:29 That's one for Barroca, couldn't finish and the ball tapped away.
03:32 Why not Tyler Bay? He attacks Betty Boatwright.
03:35 Jericho Cruz with the steal. CJ Perez running the break.
03:38 The play continues. That was a tap from Gio.
03:42 CJ Perez gets free.
03:46 Why not Jericho Cruz?
03:48 Oh, imposing himself in this game.
03:51 It is this one. Jericho Cruz in the corner.
03:55 Who hit a big three in front of the guy who normally hits big threes in Paul Lee.
04:00 That's right. I think Paul Lee forgot Cruz open in that corner.
