00:00Perfection from the field so far.
00:02Second quarter is here.
00:03El Piliw, Ganiyod, facing off here in round 2.
00:07And in our first game today,
00:09Verzosa underneath.
00:11Talunod!
00:13It's hard for Leo Baguio to challenge from below.
00:15I think he needs to kick out the ball.
00:18Look for open guy.
00:20Again, Ganiyod.
00:22This is a team that can come back from any deficit.
00:26Yes.
00:28You know, their shift to the next group again or first group,
00:32even to their third group,
00:34that's what's scary there.
00:36That's why they really need to be careful.
00:38Taking bad shots can really cost them a lot.
00:40Precisely.
00:42Anton Eusebio is now in the ballgame.
00:44So now Aden Liwa going to floor 4.
00:46Benildas Morales.
00:48Misfires.
00:50El Piliw looks to take advantage here.
00:52With CSB rather,
00:54playing small, coach.
00:57Maybe they just want to face
00:59the lineup of LPU.
01:01Ato.
01:03Driving middle.
01:05And he dropped the foul again.
01:07This guy
01:09is just putting his head down.
01:11The challenge now for Benildas
01:13is who will be their focal point
01:15in the offense.
01:17Who will be their point of attack.
01:19So now, while Ato Bar
01:21is free-throwing, we'll go
01:23for a second quarter update.
01:26As the Benil Blazers
01:28face the top offensive team
01:30in the league, coach Charles Yu
01:32emphasized their need to stop their opponents
01:34from running and scoring as they look to secure
01:36their place as the top 1 seed.
01:38On the other side of the court,
01:40we have coach Gilbert Malabana
01:42with the motivation to complete
01:44their lineup for this crucial game
01:46after an injury-filled season.
01:48Moreover, they will capitalize on their quickness
01:50for this must-win match.
01:52With both teams eager to finish the elimination rounds
01:54strong, let's see who will prevail
01:56in this high-stakes game.
02:24Finds the bottom of the net.
02:26That is his first triple of the game.
02:28The good thing about the LPU
02:30is that Barba,
02:32you might think he's just out there,
02:34but he can also go to the post.
02:36He can take advantage of Benilda's small lineup.
02:38Antonio Sevilla will be
02:40fouled here by Kyle Montano.
02:42But how about the
02:44LPU Pirates continuing what they did
02:46in the first? Ian Torres first.
02:48Knocking it down
02:50from deep.
02:52And the Pirates executing
02:54the spray
02:56to Guadagna.
02:58That was beautiful by Per Sousa.
03:00That's what he should have done
03:02when Liwag was at the bottom.
03:04It's harder to hit if Liwag is there.
03:06Let's see.
03:08So, no signs of
03:10Ian Liwag. He'll get the extended rest
03:12in this juncture for Benilda.
03:14The tallest player
03:16for the Blazers on the court
03:18is Antonio Sevilla.
03:20At 6'5", Morales
03:22comes after him
03:246'3".
03:28Let's see if
03:30the LPU Pirates
03:32will go to the paint.
03:34Usually,
03:36Benilda always has
03:38a head-underside center.
03:40Even for Ondoa, they let
03:42Porturgo enter the court.
03:44But this time, there's really nothing.
03:46But they have scorers on the floor
03:48Perez, Cometa, and Inot.
03:50That's gonna be a whistle
03:52against Benilda.
03:54So, 8'06 to go
03:56here in the first half.
03:58Going to Final Four,
04:00you need to have different combinations.
04:02Maybe that's also
04:04what Coach Charles is thinking.
04:06This is what I was saying, Coach Ralph.
04:08Roger Ondoa, 6'1".
04:12He's gonna be playing center now for Benilda
04:14as he replaces Gab Cometa.
04:16Maybe Coach Charles
04:18is underestimating that line-up.
04:22And that's a foul
04:24away from the ball. Greg Gunanan
04:26for the Blazers.
04:28There's not even two minutes
04:30left for our second quarter.
04:32Their team fouled.
04:34They'll pay for that later.
04:36Every foul,
04:38one, two free throws will be given to the LPU.
04:40That's right.
04:42Trigger here. Attacks right away.
04:44Guadagna misses.
04:46And Eusebio
04:48tracks it down. Anton being pressured.
04:50Torres.
04:52Ian Torres
04:54now has the big eye on him.
04:56Corner.
04:58They swing it to Ondoa
05:00here who attacks. Ondoa.
05:02They'll drop the glass. Bravo.
05:04Grabs the rebound.
05:06Now, Barba.
05:08Off the spin.
05:10Draws the foul.
05:12Fourth team foul on the Blazers.
05:14And two free throws coming up here
05:16for Ato Barba.
05:18Another foul.
05:20LPU will go to the line again.
05:22Barba.
05:24This is going to be his third trip
05:26to the free throw line.
05:28And he's
05:30just all gas today.
05:32Ato doesn't have a penalty.
05:34Head down.
05:36Focused on this matchup.
05:38Alin Liwag is back on the floor.
05:52And the Blazers
05:54for Coach Charles.
05:58Barba missed the second.
06:00Rebound by Bravo.
06:04Barba will set things up.
06:08Roger Ondoa
06:10trying to shoot for LPU.
06:14Coach Gilbert
06:16wants to draw
06:18this one up.
06:24If in Season 99
06:26there are new heroes of the game,
06:28in this first century,
06:30there are also OG heroes, the NCAA.
06:32It's not just sports
06:34legends and famous celebrities
06:36who became the fruit of the NCAA
06:38schools, but also
06:40the national heroes of the Philippines
06:42and the former president.
06:44The product of
06:46Colegio de San Juan de Letran are the
06:48revolutionary Apolinario Mabini
06:50and Emilio Jacinto.
06:52The former president
06:54Manuel Quezada is also one of them.
06:56Back to our match, Sir Fran Rusi Jr.
06:58of the University of
07:00Perpetual Health System Delta
07:02watching here.
07:04The season of Perpetual is over
07:06but Sir Fran is still here
07:08as part of the man come.
07:1032-21.
07:125 seconds left
07:14for the LPU, but
07:16Coach Gilbert
07:18wants a clear play.
07:20As we see, some of the members
07:22of the EAC generals watching.
07:24That's Angeles, in the middle
07:26is Kim Gortiza, and
07:28on Gortiza's right
07:30is Harvey Pagusanhan.
07:32They are praying
07:34that Benilde wins this one.
07:36You know, they're really praying.
07:38Here's Harvey Pagusanhan.
07:40I don't want to anymore.
07:42On the lower right is Jet Babug.
07:44He's also the center for the EAC.
07:46Here's the trigger.
07:48Ooh, offensive foul
07:50on Aviles.
07:52That hurts, right?
07:54Coming from a timeout,
07:56you were the one who called the offensive foul.
07:58Coach Gilbert
08:00pleading
08:02his case.
08:04His setup looks like that.
08:06The execution was good.
08:08Coach Gilbert
08:10is fighting.
08:12Here's
08:14Ian Torres.
08:16By the way,
08:18with still 7 minutes and 10 seconds left,
08:20are already in the penalty.
08:22Here we see
08:24from the cross kick,
08:26he's really defending.
08:28It's really hard.
08:30Tony Enot
08:32taking up his dribble.
08:34Shot-lock violation
08:36on Benilde.
08:38Sanchez throws
08:40up the heave.
08:42The coverage of the LPU
08:44is good.
08:46All players are covered.
08:48On the post, on the kick-out,
08:50they're still there.
08:52For Allen Lee,
08:54he has seen
08:56every defensive scheme,
08:58different defensive schemes
09:00thrown at him this year.
09:02But this is probably the hardest
09:04he's been able to get the ball.
09:06Aviles is also heavy.
09:08If you look at him,
09:10he's going to the cross kick.
09:12Barba is still defending.
09:14Speaking of Barba,
09:16we're still
09:18feeling it.
09:20Wow, 18 points
09:22in the first half for Ato.
09:24Still perfect from the field.
09:26Largest lead for the Pirates.
09:28Liwag.
09:30Liwag
09:32scores!
09:34That's four
09:36around Liwag.
09:38But it's really hard
09:40to watch Allen.
09:42Four points now for Allen Liwag.
09:44Renz Villegas,
09:46his turn to offer it.
09:48He's got bigger Sanchez on him.
09:50Bravo from the
09:52left elbow knocks it down.
09:58Second basket of the game
10:00for J.M. Bravo.
10:02And MPU is just cruising
10:04here in the first half.
10:06Tony Inot will attack.
10:08They send it out. Torres from the top
10:10of the key. Left it short.
10:12And Ato Barba gets it.
10:14Forward pass, Renz Villegas behind the pass.
10:16Bravo!
10:18With a finish on the fast play.
10:20Showtime play for LPU.
10:22Timeout, Coach Charles.
10:24It is the largest lead
10:26for the Pirates here in the first half.
10:34Many of the student-athletes
10:36of NCAA continue
10:38in the professional basketball leagues
10:40and there are also athletes
10:42who become basketball legends.
10:44Some of the past
10:46and future basketball legends of NCAA
10:48are Kaloy Loizaga,
10:50Lauro Mumar, and Freddie Webb.
10:52Followed by Atoy Ko,
10:54Philip Cesar, Virgel Meneses,
10:56Alvin Patrimonio,
10:58and Sam Boy Lim.
11:00Also include Rommel Adukul,
11:02Roddy Santos, and Willie Lee.
11:04Back to the coverage.
11:06And it is LPU surging
11:08here in the first half.
11:10Barba continues his hot start.
11:12Alan Liwak scores on the counter
11:14here off the glass.
11:16JM Bravo.
11:18Two consecutive baskets
11:20for the Pirates. One off the elbow
11:22and off the shoulder.
11:24Behind the back pass by Renz Villegas.
11:26He finishes on the break.
11:28LPU is enjoying this.
11:32You can feel the energy
11:34every time they are inside the court
11:36offensively and defensively.
11:38They are showing that they really want
11:40to win the final four.
11:42That's right.
11:44We have a situation here.
11:46A win by LPU
11:48puts us off
11:50an extra play date.
11:5239-23.
11:56The biggest advantage
11:58for LPU.
12:00Ancheta is inside.
12:02Let's see if the fielding has an effect on him.
12:04Alan Liwak
12:06backing down. Scores with
12:08the left hand.
12:10I think that's the weaker hand.
12:12We'll see.
12:14It's natural.
12:16Alan Liwak now with six points.
12:18Such a force
12:20down low.
12:22Kunanan
12:24getting ready to check in
12:26for the Pirates.
12:28Perzosa will attack.
12:30Travelling is called by JM Perzosa.
12:32That's painful.
12:34Maybe there will be a consecutive run
12:36for Pinil.
12:38Look at this.
12:40Alan Liwak
12:42hosting and toasting
12:44and scoring with his offhand.
12:4839-25.
12:50Jumel Ancheta.
12:52Mark Sacco.
12:54Jumel Ancheta on top.
12:56Back to Sacco again.
12:58Liwak is looking for a chance. He is doubled now.
13:00Bravo is in the lead.
13:02LPU Pirates
13:04have a new defensive scheme.
13:06Earlier, they were just helping
13:08on the line side. Now, they are
13:10directly doubling from the passer.
13:12Quickly adjusting to
13:14Liwak's...
13:16Alan Liwak has two consecutive runs.
13:22He is receiving.
13:24One is helping.
13:26Josh Cahubong also in the game.
13:28Missed the last one
13:30for Pinil. He is back in the lineup.
13:34Coach Charles has two guards.
13:36Jumel Ancheta
13:38and Josh Cahubong.
13:42They have a big front line here.
13:44Sanchez, Sacco,
13:46and Liwak. Here's Alan
13:48Cahubong now. They go to
13:50Ancheta. Bounce pass.
13:52Sanchez down the middle. No.
13:54Rebound. Ending up with Sanchez again.
13:56Sanchez.
13:58Still no.
14:00Two misses for Justin Sanchez.
14:02They had a good idea
14:04in that last play.
14:06They didn't just convert. They really needed to
14:08feel their height. Their height
14:10advantage in the LPU.
14:12Big pocket
14:14by Bravo.
14:16That one was
14:18deflected by Sacco.
14:20Here comes Pinil.
14:22Ancheta finishes.
14:26A four to nothing answer
14:28by the Blazers.
14:30Maybe Ancheta will get hot.
14:32We already know.
14:34He already knows
14:36when he will score.
14:38He knows this is a good pass.
14:40But he knows when to score.
14:42That's right.
14:44Drop off inside.
14:46With a sorry miss.
14:48And you see the activity here
14:50by the bigs of LPU.
14:52Villegas
14:54off the slash.
14:56Kick out. Bravo. Miss.
14:58And Pinil
15:00crushing it the other way. Ancheta
15:02with the score.
15:04Jumelo Ancheta
15:06has eight points.
15:08Jumelo's eight points
15:10is very quiet.
15:12His first quarter was good.
15:14Yeah.
15:16But
15:18how about LPU today?
15:20Getting offensive
15:22rebounds against this
15:24Pinil front line.
15:26Maybe it's their heart
15:28showing
15:30that we need this game more
15:32than you.
15:34It's a bit of
15:36desperation
15:38heart.
15:40That translates to energy and hustle
15:42for the Pirates as
15:44Verzosa.
15:46It's the size and weight.
15:48It's a mismatch.
15:50Verzosa
15:52one out of two.
15:54LPU is back to 13.
15:56Jumelo Ancheta
15:58first quarter pass here.
16:00Justin Sanchez
16:02attacks. Missed the layup.
16:04But free throws
16:06for Justin Sanchez.
16:08That last play was good.
16:10The defense can be busy
16:12against Liwag.
16:14There will be a free lane in the basket
16:16like what Justin did there.
16:18A lot of
16:20players are helping
16:22Liwag. This freeze up.
16:24It's like
16:26he's sealing
16:28and screening at the same time.
16:30Sanchez missed on the first.
16:32Justin Sanchez
16:34this is his first trip to the free throw line.
16:36Hasn't scored.
16:38A waterfall from the field.
16:42There's a second one coming up though.
16:44Sanchez had
16:4613 points against the Red Lions.
16:48One out of two there.
16:50Three minutes and six
16:52seconds left in the first half.
16:54Ball pressure being applied now
16:56by Vinil at the backcourt.
16:58Let's see the adjustment of Coach Charles
17:00giving them pressure at the backcourt.
17:02Let's see the effect.
17:04Rins Villegas
17:06That was a difficult shot.
17:08Villegas is still down. Slow to get up.
17:10He's already waiting at the bottom.
17:12That's a foul on Mark Sacco.
17:14A lot of steals for LPU.
17:16That's a penalty.
17:18So Bravo
17:20will head to the free throw line.
17:22LPU in the first half
17:24has five steals.
17:26That's a good thing.
17:28And a lot of those steals
17:30will be converted.
17:32Punanan
17:34disrupted the play.
17:36And JM now
17:38heads to the line
17:40for a couple.
17:42Bravo
17:44on his second game back
17:46for the LPU
17:48Parrots.
17:50Homley sinks the first.
17:52All players should know
17:54if their team is in a penalty.
17:56That's a big thing.
17:58Those two points. They might have
18:00hustled back. Made the stop.
18:02But here, you were added
18:04by a personal foul.
18:06And you gave two free throws.
18:08LPU has a huge advantage here
18:10in the second quarter. They really forced
18:12Vinil to a ton of fouls early on.
18:14Lane violation.
18:16Lane violation.
18:18So they'll grant another
18:20free throw.
18:22That's a good thing.
18:24Seven minutes earlier.
18:26Penalty.
18:28They got that
18:30through aggressiveness.
18:32That's what LPU does.
18:34They're being aggressive
18:36offensively, defensively.
18:38All of their movements
18:40are deadly.
18:42We saw
18:44Mintis again.
18:46Now, it's time for Vinil Blazers.
18:48Pacmodanya,
18:50Renz Villegas.
18:52So,
18:54five on the floor for LPU.
18:56We have Daileg,
18:58Brodana, Bravo,
19:00Cunanan,
19:02and J.M. Bersoza
19:04for Vinil.
19:06Ancheta, Sambo, Liwag, Cajupong,
19:08and Tony Inot.
19:10They go to Liwag here.
19:12Mark Sambo, driving.
19:14Difficult take. He gets it back.
19:16Joman chooses to
19:18attack as well. Outs it up and in.
19:2010 points now for Ancheta.
19:22CSP
19:24Vinil should look for
19:26the big side action every time
19:28there's a double. They should take
19:30advantage of that.
19:32J.M. Bravo will be
19:34fouled again.
19:36And he'll take his time to get up
19:38as we see this move from
19:40J.M. Ancheta
19:42for a rookie.
19:44We know he's not a rookie in the collegiate
19:46scene. He's a rookie in the NCAA but still
19:48we have to praise the
19:50basketball IQ of J.M. Ancheta.
19:52Of course,
19:54the NCAA
19:56atmosphere is different but the way
19:58that he adapted
20:00we can see that he's ready
20:02to take over.
20:04It's his first year.
20:06He has multiple
20:08winning shots.
20:10Game winning shots for Vinil
20:12in different games.
20:14You can see his decision making.
20:16Very mature
20:18with his decisions
20:20on the basketball court. Knows when
20:22to pull back and set the table.
20:24Knows when to score.
20:26You have the heart to take those
20:28big shots. It's different.
20:30It's hard. You have the vets
20:32but you're the rookie.
20:34You'll get those big shots.
20:36That's J.M. Ancheta's DNA.
20:38We've been seeing it
20:40since the early games
20:42for Vinil.
20:44Here's J.M. Bravo.
20:46He has missed his last two
20:48free throws.
20:50Second one though.
20:54It's up and down
20:56for Bravo.
20:58Montano checks in
21:00for Bravo.
21:02We can see the different combinations
21:04that Coach Charles is doing.
21:06Big lineups, small lineups.
21:08He's going back to the small.
21:10That's what Coach Gilbert does.
21:12Very unpredictable
21:14because of Coach Gilbert's rotation.
21:28Sanchez needs to be more aggressive
21:30now.
21:34Liwag is hounded.
21:36Barba out of nowhere
21:38gets the steal.
21:40Barba saw that
21:42from almost
21:44at the half-court mark.
21:4620 points now for Barba
21:48on a perfect
21:506 out of 6 from the field.
21:52We're still in the first half.
21:54We still have 90 seconds
21:56left. Cometa from the corner.
21:58Cometa knocks it down.
22:00You can't let Cometa
22:02get an open shot like that.
22:04It's automatic for him.
22:06Here's Billiard.
22:08Little by little.
22:10Not one shot.
22:12Little by little.
22:14LPU is taking it down.
22:16Here's Cervais.
22:187 to shoot.
22:20Barba.
22:22Max down. Barba.
22:24Yes! He is still
22:26perfect. 7 out of 7
22:28from the field.
22:30Barba is watching.
22:32He can shoot from those trees
22:34and he can post you up.
22:3622 first half points
22:38for Ato Barba. Liwag
22:40offensive board.
22:42Up and in. Plus one.
22:44That's their biggest problem.
22:46Liwag.
22:48It looks like
22:50Coach Gilbert needs to change his game plan.
22:52As we see
22:54this last place. Ato Barba
22:56out of nowhere.
22:58Cometa.
23:00Executing
23:02offensively.
23:04Cometa left open at the corner.
23:06Barba just winning his team
23:08to this
23:109 point lead.
23:12This is now
23:14becoming a problem for
23:16LPU.
23:18A long stretch.
23:20JM
23:22Bersoza is watching
23:24Liwag which is of course a few inches
23:26shorter.
23:28Who is a few inches shorter than Liwag?
23:30We saw the adjustment
23:32on the weak side. Every time
23:34Liwag is doubling up.
23:36The cross court passes are there.
23:38The three-pointers are open.
23:40That's two for Cometa.
23:425 point stretch
23:44for Binild.
23:46And they're back within 6.
23:48What a climb for the Blazers.
23:52Hand off
23:54to Guadagna.
23:56Looking for an LPU.
24:00Guadagna chooses the 3.
24:02Short. 10 seconds
24:04remaining here in the first half.
24:06Here is Liwag
24:08down the middle. Liwag lays it up to him.
24:10And Binild
24:12continues
24:14to surge
24:16towards the buzzer.
24:18The Blazers
24:20end with a
24:22furious rally.
24:24That was
24:26a 7-0 run
24:28by Binild to pull
24:30to it in 4 at halftime.
24:3246-42.
