We lost a lot on that one. I thought with their new import, their chemistry wouldn’t be great yet, but it turns out he’s really good, especially since he’s defensive-minded, and their scoring is well-distributed.

The one who really carried Converge (though I’m not sure if he was the best player of the game) was Stockton. He’s a young local who’s great at creating his own shots. This kid is definitely going to be a superstar. Another reason Converge won was because Newsome fouled out in the 4th quarter, so Meralco couldn’t really recover. Anyway, Meralco’s already secured a spot, so maybe that’s why their effort wasn’t as strong, especially with Durham not performing well in the 1st half.
