00:00 from San Juan City number 14, Mark Baroca. Shooting guard from Tocca Manila number 3, Paul Lee. Small forward from Bustos, Pulacan number 57, Aris Jonesho. Power forward from Angeles City, Pampanga number 88, Russell Escoto. In at center from Kaloakan City number 42, James Laput. Point guard from Angeles City, Pampanga number 7, James Kwikute.
00:30 Shooting guard from Opol, Misamis Oriental number 27, Rey Nambata. Small forward from Pangasinan number 33, Tyrus Hill. Power forward from Abulu-Kagayan number 18, Troy Rosario. In at center from Orani, Bataan number 8, Bredwyn Quinto.
00:50 To see this ball game, it's him and JB Kacho playing against each other. They have been matched up very well when they were in college and today, they'll be a match up against each other. They were the premier point guards again of KILAS 1.0. So I'm really looking forward to see how Mark will be playing against JB here in this ball game.
01:12 They're going to be getting a bucket here for the Blackwater bossing. Aris Jonesho answers back immediately. Coach James Kwikute has been a bright spot for the Blackwater bossing, especially in their last game. And they're going to be hoping that he becomes more consistent in this conference.
01:28 We'll go back here with the Blackwater bossing. Attacking with Nambata throws that to Troy Rosario, pulls up for three, gets it to go. He attempts around 5.6, around 6, this round that up. Attempts for a game in terms of three-pointers, but only has been draining one.
01:57 His assist went down then. Only 3.5.
02:01 Ian Sanggalang has checked into the ball game. Again, Ian Sanggalang had his career high a while back. As Aris Jonesho scores inside.
02:09 Nambata pulls up for three. That short ball pops up. Nambata still beating Hill now. Now Troy Rosario, little fake inside. Finishes strong. Now Nambata directing traffic here. Nambata to Troy, pull up three straight away. That time he makes it!
02:29 What a tough shot. A smile coming out from Calvin Abueva. He did everything to close out against Troy Rosario, but still a three-point shot was made by Troy.
02:38 Coach, we have to credit here the leadership of both Rosario and Nambata. So far, coach, it's been shining early on against Magnolia.
02:48 What a block by Hill! But here's Mark Baroca making something out of nothing.
02:54 ...fast break points allowed against their opponents with only 12.6. Blackwater, the same thing. Just 13 points for Blackwater in allowing its opponents to fast break.
03:05 Ian Sanggalang ties the ball game up at 15 apiece. Again, operating in the post. Ian Sanggalang again coming just two games ago, he hit his career high. Let's see if he can follow that up in our good form performance here.
03:19 Find inside. The miss from Escoto, the tap again, and Guindo gets two.
03:25 He played big the last time out, having 17 points will be focusing on his numbers. But that's a good sign for Blackwater.
03:33 Eriobu feeding Gio Halalon, who feeds Ian Sanggalang with the finish.
03:38 Always give it back to your big man who's running, and that's what was in the mind of Gio Halalon to tie this ball game.
03:46 The big coach for running the floor because it takes so much more effort for them to run.
03:50 And speaking of, David getting a three-pointer in the corner here for Blackwater to give them back the lead.
03:57 Even if your team is more stacked, if you're not ready, your opponents will outwork you. There's no such thing anymore as weaker teams this conference, gentlemen.
04:05 Thank you so much, Pauline, for that. And I think you can just take a look at Gio Halalon now, RK Lagun right in front of him.
04:11 Nice matchup, huh?
04:14 He's a good coach.
04:15 He's a strong man.
04:17 Absolutely. And speaking of, here's RK Lagun.
04:20 Oh, nice! That's a good one.
04:22 Ball in. Pulls the trigger. Can't get that to fall. And Halalon takes it over Lagun.
04:29 And finding Abu inside, and that is a great defensive stand by the Balsing.
04:34 Lagun working really well with Lagun.
04:41 And here's Utungkab attacking Mars Baroca. No good. Abueva will get the rebound, though.
04:46 There's no advantage here in terms of numbers, but Abueva doesn't care. Abueva will attack and finish.
04:51 It comes with experience. It comes with wisdom. So that's something that is really, that can be learned.
04:57 And look at this, no? That's great timing right there.
05:00 He told me that they have really talked about it. They know they're playing good basketball.
05:06 But fourth quarter is really something, though, that they have to improve on.
05:11 Kwekute with an easy two. Another turnover. Another point here.
05:15 James Kwekute, because first he was just playing defense, and then the last how many games?
05:21 He has learned how to play offense and really score the way.
05:25 Mars Baroca finding Geohalalon up top. Four seconds left here on the shot clock.
05:31 Another turnover, coach. And Blackwater are on the run. Kwekute on the drive and scoring two.
05:36 Very, very strong finisher. You know, James Kwekute, you can see that he has really been very aggressive here in this ballgame.
05:44 Very confident game being shown by James.
05:47 And Sanggalang using his body weight there to eventually give it to Mars Baroca.
05:52 Toss to Jonesho. Now Abutrater back to Mars Baroca.
05:57 Mark attacking, trying to get the contact, but then gets it off the bat.
06:01 I heard that, Mark versus RJ.
06:05 And Reinambata goes inside to score again.
06:10 We have yet to see that in this game, coach. But I'm excited just in case.
06:15 But now, James Laput working on Chua. The spin, the push shot, that's good.
06:22 Mark Baroca to inbound here. Finding Geohalalon. Great play here. Open look in the corner.
06:30 And that is Jonesho. Scores like they drew it up. 31-34.
06:36 Rather an official review on whether or not it's a three. And it definitely is. And definitely within time.
06:43 So, we are going into the halftime break. All knotted up at 34-all.
06:48 Pagpaglang and then they're back.
06:52 Quakaday. Pull up three right in the face of Paul Lee.
06:56 The self-awareness of Blackwater through Coach Mike Cortes.
07:02 Oh, and what a block from Tyrus Hill. I'm so sorry. I had to cut myself off there with Tyrus Hill.
07:07 They'll be playing real good defense. Look at this. This is a perfect example. That was a short two points.
07:13 With the self-awareness of Blackwater that they typically fall short in the second half.
07:20 You can be sure that they'll be having extra effort. That's Hill!
07:24 Goes downhill with the finish.
07:27 I felt that was already a clear mismatch. Hopia was there inside the paint.
07:31 Magdalenas only scored two points in three and a half minutes here in the third quarter.
07:37 Maput with the easy finish inside.
07:40 I test the coach. It feels like Hopia is a bit longer than him.
07:46 You know, land of the giants. This time, that's a good slide right there.
07:50 And an end-one opportunity for James Laput that scored four points here in the third quarter.
07:55 The big men featuring here today. Let's take a look at that again.
07:58 Great pass. This time by Paul Lee to James Laput.
08:03 Suerte. Now to Hill.
08:07 Quakaday. Short shot clock. Pull up J is good!
08:13 Good set-up job. Nine points just a while ago. Now he's got 11.
08:17 Go to their offense because of that rebound.
08:20 And here's Laput again!
08:22 There you go. The big man is scoring here in the third quarter.
08:27 What a feed as well from Paul Lee. But James Laput has started to come alive here in quarter number three.
08:33 Quakaday. Hopia. David.
08:40 Hopia goes inside. Now has to work on Abutrater.
08:43 Abutrater stood strong but then Hopia is just too tall.
08:46 Mark Baroja directing traffic. Quakaday right in front of him.
08:49 Abutrater came up and Iain Sagalang left open for a moment.
08:52 And Hopia with a defensive effort. He is such a problem coach in the interior on the defensive end.
08:59 Well, that's not going to be easy shooting over the six-foot line.
09:03 Clifford Hopia. Good back-sing-out tactic this time.
09:08 By Iain Sagalang. And Ray Suerte still scoreless here today.
09:12 Iain Sagalang.
09:14 Now Paul Lee. Ray Suerte right in front of him.
09:19 Lee attacking and gets his first field goal.
09:23 Arkay Ilagan. Oh! What a swipe there from Gio Alalon.
09:28 Cameron Buenas off the races. Calvin trying to find Gio. And Gio with the finish.
09:34 Some struggle offensively for Blackwater. Maybe because of the defense being played also by Magnolia.
09:41 And right now coach, Blackwater shooting at a 32% clip as Gio Alalon gets an end-goal opportunity.
09:48 A rather 19 after this bonus opportunity from Gio Alalon.
09:52 You know the thing with Magnolia here in the third quarter, they're not forcing the three-point shots.
09:56 And again, it just goes to show you how unpredictable Magnolia can be on a game-to-game basis.
10:01 As it will be. Arkay Ilagan getting a two inside, an end-one opportunity.
10:07 A big one-three-one offense here. And they go back to Jed Mendoza who thought about it.
10:13 Short shot clocked here. And they go to Iain Sagalang inside. That's patient play from Magnolia.
10:18 Calvin Abueva doing a very good job actually in rebounding.
10:22 And now this is going to be a running opportunity. Let's see if they can score here in transition.
10:28 Oh! But what a stop there by Calvin Abueva.
10:31 Such a big effort running down making sure there are no fast break points for Blackwater Bossing.
10:37 Here's Aris Janisho. He'll pull up for a three all the time in the world but missed everything.
10:42 Jed Mendoza no, but Calvin Abueva with the finish.
10:45 Getting the stop on one end and cleaning up the mess on the other.
10:48 As we take a look at this stop again. Abueva.
10:55 Mark to Aris. Three seconds on the clock.
10:59 Pull up and Mark Parroka drains a big three.
11:03 You know he's got eight points. You said, "Wala pang double digits."
11:07 Biglang all of a sudden eleven points na to si Mark.
11:10 And that's his first attempt from beyond the arc and his first make.
11:14 As Reynambatak pulls two back.
11:16 Malas.
11:18 As Abu Tranter.
11:21 Malas is going to the right.
11:24 He's going to dunk and misses his second attempt as well.
11:27 There, you're bad too.
11:29 Lapot.
11:31 Parroka getting free and finishing off the glass.
11:36 He loves that lean in jumper. Mark Parroka thirteen points.
11:40 Now Suerte. Still looking for his first points of the game.
11:43 Smothered with a double. Fuekete inside to Guinto and that's a tough finish.
11:50 Four points right now for Bradwyn Guinto. You know there is still time remaining.
11:54 There is still five and fifty here in this ball game.
11:57 Or just three points away from the seventy point mark here to Ambal Magnolia.
12:02 Abu Tranter battling inside.
12:05 And the ball will go to Fuekete on the run.
12:08 Two blue shirts in front of him. Takes a little bump and scores.
12:12 Oh the last two and a half minutes. Not six to zero run.
12:17 For Blackwater Bossing. They have to focus on playing defense.
12:20 But not leaving Mark Parroka. He just faked on the pass.
12:24 Left and wide open for that fifteen footer and he's got fifteen points here in this ball game.
12:29 Fifteen points to go with four rebounds and three assists here and two steals.
12:34 Here's Troy Rosario swinging that around.
12:37 Suerte. Again he needs to get going on a scoring column coach.
12:43 As Bradwyn Guinto fed inside.
12:46 Another.
12:47 Now Gio Halal on the pull up from the elbow.
12:53 Can't get shooters bounce.
12:55 Seventy one to sixty. Still time here for Blackwater to get something.
12:59 Fuekete left open for three. That's big!
13:03 Very big contribution. He has really improved here in the PBA.
13:08 He's showing a lot of maturity James Fuekete.
13:12 James Fuekete keeping Blackwater in this ball game. Single digit lead here.
13:16 Magnolia not out of the woods. Paul Lee answers back with three!
13:21 You know when it is end game you would still want to go to Paul Lee.
13:26 That's a big three point shot and back to an eleven point lead for Magnolia.
13:30 One of five from beyond the arc is Paul Lee and you just felt that it was only a matter of time before he makes it.
13:38 Troy Rosario answers back and it is a flurry of three pointers here.
13:42 Good possession ball game.
13:44 Take a look at the last sequence here coach.
13:47 Here's Ian Sanggalang finding Paul Lee.
13:50 Paul Lee almost lost that letter there.
13:53 Ian Sanggalang the turn, the finish inside underneath Guinto.
13:56 You know that's no longer a magic shot. For a while in his younger career
14:01 you feel like that shot was a fake by Ian Sanggalang.
14:06 Right now it's almost clockwork. Here's Fuekete right in front of Paul Lee.
14:10 Here's Troy Rosario finding Marquee Ilagan in the corner. Ilagan gets three!
14:15 Statenueva misses the second and it will go here to the Blackwater Boston again.
14:20 As Fuekete pulls up for three, gets that to go.
14:23 As Fuekete hands it off to Troy Rosario for three, he'll get that to go as well.
14:30 What a big effort for the Blackwater Boston to be back here in this ball game.
14:36 But sad to say, time is no longer on their side and they lose this game by only four points.
