Just not enough for SMB although they have a huge run in the 4th quarter. Anyway, it's just one game, regardless of the total points the TNT won, they are happy now but SMB will not allow them to win easily, so expect a good game 2 game for the SMB, and hopefully the refs will come to play as well.
Only point away not bad for both teams, they show fans how competition really is when facing the same level of competitor. I like the idea of using the old squad the blend really there. The veteran stars get to play longer time and only Romeo and Perez shared some minutes, a battle of good coaching strategy and the system that will engage each player inside the court.
This series is more interesting as it's a just like playing the finals and you are really fighting hard to win the title.
Game 2 will be another hard time for both squad, as one will want to have a good edge while the other team will try to tie the series up and make sure that they won't be left with a huge gap..
We've seen 2 game winners coming from SMB and both from NorthPort but the TNT are just lucky that they've manage to stop Lassiter when he go inside.
TNT is lacking bigs at that game because Williams didn't play because of health protocols and their bigs are in foul trouble as well.
Well, I missed that kind of game TBH. I didn't watch the whole elimination game because I see it kinda boring but now we are in SemiFinals where 4 of the best teams are battling for the spot in the Finals. TNT and SMB is like PBA Finals already. SMB will get a lead then TNT will get it. TNT got a double digit lead in the 3rd quarter but SMB managed to chip it away slowly. I'm an SMB fan as always and I will watch this series alongside MAG and MER. Congrats to TNT
