TNT's handicap went as high as +11.5 before game time, which makes sense since Poy Erram was ruled out and a lot of bettors were probably hammering SMB to close the series tonight.
But what we’re seeing so far is the opposite,TNT is actually leading by double digits and might even finish the half with that lead.
Still, the real turning point is the second half. That’s usually where SMB starts taking over, so we’ll see if it plays out the same way again.
TNT played a lot better, compose and shot is falling, i thought in the last five minutes SMB will have a run since they are chipping the lead, but they are unable to capitalized, if they want to win on friday, they will need to have the same effort, for sure SMB will try to finish this in Game 6, we will see how JunMar played this friday, hopefully they will give as a good game, but not expecting to have a game 7.
They need to have that kind of composure and maintain their confidence if they want to win, SMB unable to counter on both sides they unable to contest those shots allowing TNT to feel those baskets and able to continue till the rest of the game, while SMB is not on their focus and their shots are not falling, bad night that they need to adjust if they wanted to finish the series, else, giving TNT another game to push that might endanger them in winning the title, congrats to those kabayan who managed to bet for TNT both ML and Handicap.
