00:00 This is a matchup I'd like to see Armitolatino go up against Calvin Oftana.
00:06 Armitolatino strikes first against the first two points of the game.
00:10 Again the second leading scorer showing no fear on that one.
00:14 Very much willing to attack anybody's defense.
00:18 Here's Galitato handing it off to Heruela.
00:21 Heruela, 3-1 extended jumper, doesn't go. Galitato gets the rebound.
00:27 Oftana driving inside again, dropping it off.
00:30 BGR puts it up and slaps it home.
00:33 You see that? If he just dishes it off, it's easy offense.
00:37 And then guess what? When the other team hedges a little too much, he'll have his shots as well.
00:41 But a great way to start off the game.
00:44 Puts on, sneaks it in under BGR.
00:48 Wonderful dish off and the phenomenal throw down slam a jam.
00:53 Referee's letting it go so the players must adjust.
00:57 Andamos.
01:00 Ooh, Galitato, strong move against the front line of Northport.
01:04 Henry's so big, you should just call him Hank.
01:08 That's a big boy.
01:10 As we see Joshua Monson shoot another lefty layup.
01:13 Or he could be even Australian rules, I'm not sure.
01:15 Alba closing up Galitato.
01:18 Nice looking move from Gen Calma.
01:23 Risky pass, gets it inside to Calma.
01:25 It's against BGR.
01:27 Whoa, spins! Gets it a go over BGR!
01:32 Oh, Tolentino almost got it.
01:35 BGR all the way. Oh, missing the gimme.
01:38 Kumuntin to Oftana.
01:40 And TNT takes advantage.
01:43 Don't forget, RPTV na, the official and exclusive channel of Papansang Liga ng Bayan on free-to-air.
01:49 Sabay-sabay nating sa Bayan ang PBA Season 14 Philippine Cup.
01:52 All games live dito sa RPTV para sa Pinoy.
01:56 As Christian Salas makes up for his turnover and gets a bucket there.
02:00 Bagtang Pierre going to work.
02:04 Up by seven against a very, very good TNT team.
02:08 This is a team that's three and one so far. Galitato, nice pocket pass from Calviroftan.
02:14 He was down seven from his 21 point average with just 14.
02:18 Five out of 14 from the field against San Miguel.
02:21 Also down one out of four from three point land.
02:25 Legs under that shot.
02:27 They had Munzon with Galitato out on that island right there.
02:32 Yeah, see, here's the blur, ivity coming out.
02:39 It's the adverb of blur.
02:42 Gets the lead down to one.
02:44 You need an impact here for Castro.
02:46 Tolentino, take a look at that, just missing.
02:48 Zeeb Lucero gets the putback plus the foul.
02:51 Again, that's a sign of a really good team.
02:54 And then you compound that with some really strong guys, guys who are very tough.
02:59 The stretch four has been a steady force off the bench for the North Port Batangpierre,
03:03 averaging around 10 points and more than four boards a game.
03:06 Four games into the conference and Zeeb told me he's fitting into the team just fine
03:10 and he's just been trying to be a sponge.
03:13 What a pass inside.
03:15 Kubutin just couldn't handle it.
03:17 That's tough.
03:18 Hit him in the bad part of his hands.
03:20 Nadie, no hesitation, pulls from the outside.
03:24 Well, what a story.
03:25 And also a product of the PBA 3X3.
03:27 Nice to see him thriving here in the 5-on-5s, Bulanadi.
03:31 Five straight points for Ale Bulanadi.
03:35 I'm telling you, Bulanadi, you cannot give him space.
03:37 And now guess what that does.
03:39 That gives guys like Lucero and Calma and even Tolentino some extra space.
03:47 As North Port now has a double-digit lead here late in the first quarter.
03:52 As they lead this one 25-15 with 2.52 remaining.
03:56 Goes for that shot.
03:57 A little bit of a heat check for him.
03:58 He already made two in a row, though.
04:00 That's a green, green light for Bulanadi as Kubutin gets those three points back
04:04 for the Tropa Kiga.
04:06 That would mean by the bottom, Pierre, already 28.
04:09 Nice to see R. Mahoy back in action here after beating his ankle early in the game.
04:13 Missing that floater, though.
04:16 Bulanadi gets it to Zamar.
04:21 Zamar pulls up, shoots, and scores.
04:24 Again, everyone that Coach Bonney puts in is playing at a high level.
04:29 The confidence that Coach Bonney has put in his team.
04:33 Losing.
04:34 And you can see, even by the coaches' stance, I mean, all three coaches standing up,
04:39 encouraging players to do their thing.
04:42 Uh-oh, here we go.
04:43 Lucero gets it a goal.
04:45 Too easy for Xavier Lucero.
04:50 Oh, another turnover.
04:51 Navarro gets it to Zamar.
04:54 Inside, Flores drops it off.
04:56 Nice.
04:57 Calma, beautiful ball movement.
04:59 Probably the easiest look he's going to get all night.
05:01 He missed it.
05:04 Calma, that's a view.
05:06 Nice pass inside to Calma.
05:10 That is right there the definitions of a team that if you're aggressive,
05:14 good things will happen.
05:16 And speaking of aggressive.
05:20 Gets it to Yu.
05:22 Fran Yu, nice pocket pass to Adamos.
05:24 Jumper falls for Ben Adamos.
05:26 That's a perfect setup.
05:29 What a setup.
05:30 Drive, draw, and dish, and Adamos delivers.
05:34 Again, just great IQ by Fran Yu.
05:37 Gallinato posting up, Adamos to traffic.
05:40 Gallinato muscling his way through.
05:43 Take a look at this one more time.
05:44 Strong move by Gallinato.
05:46 And, you know, some people would say, "Is that a possible offensive interference?"
05:50 BGR.
05:51 BGR because he grabbed the rim.
05:53 Flores back to Tolentino.
05:56 Oh, he gets Gallinato up in the air, drives, kicks it out.
05:59 Paraiso, wide open three.
06:01 That is good for Brent Paraiso.
06:04 Tolentino pulls up.
06:06 Can't drain the three.
06:07 Battle for the rebound.
06:08 Look at that.
06:09 Paraiso, Tolentino one more time.
06:12 This side, that falls for Tolentino.
06:14 The NT has been splitting their free throws here in the second quarter.
06:18 Tolentino, heat check, goes in for Tolentino, plus the foul.
06:23 And one.
06:24 So, again, when you're playing well, that rim looks bigger and bigger.
06:28 It's like throwing a little pebble into the ocean.
06:32 Just keeps increasing this lead.
06:35 Oh, but he misses that last one, but Flores gets the ball back.
06:40 Flores off the bench, makes a three.
06:43 That's a six-point play for North Forth on that possession.
06:47 Ouch.
06:48 I mean, if I'm a TNT, just absolutely ouch.
06:52 That was a very painful time down court.
06:55 Castro throws the ball away.
06:57 North Forth, everything going for them now.
07:00 Behind the back, Flores gets caught in the air.
07:04 Slows things down out to Munzon.
07:08 Tolentino loads up, shoots a three.
07:10 That's a three.
07:11 Tolentino with 25.
07:14 When it is your day, it's your day.
07:17 I don't know what his career high is, but he's probably thinking about it right now.
07:22 Armed with all the time in the world, and he swishes that one through.
07:26 Seems to be falling for the drop on Giga.
07:30 Salas drops it off.
07:31 Calma spins.
07:33 Wow, what a move, Calma.
07:36 Gentlemen, after a tough first half, giving up more than 60 points to their opponents,
07:41 I know, Andre and Vince, you guys wanted to know how the atmosphere of the locker room was.
07:45 And according to assistant coach Sandy Arespi-Pochaga, there weren't many emotions.
07:49 They got some good quality guys there on the bench that they haven't even used.
07:53 That's Hitami, Luntapai, and Balotaja.
07:57 Whoa, what a dribbling exhibition right there for Salas.
08:01 Armando Tolentino takes it away, shoots a three, misses the open three.
08:07 Oftana's going to attack now, Munzon spins.
08:10 Wow, just a strong move by Calma and Oftana, and that forces Coach Bonny's hand on demand

08:19 Register now for free as JM Calma, going downhill once again, gets another bucket for the drop on Giga.
08:27 You know, just doing the right things at the right time.
08:31 I mean, that was a nice play right out of the timeout.
08:34 And a good job, ooh, and a steal there by Munzon.
08:37 Let's not forget, Munzon leads the league so far in steals as Rosales kicks it out to Munzon.
08:42 Finds himself in the three-point line, and he drains a three.
08:47 A broken play gets better for the Baton Pierre.
08:50 Just not a good sign for TNT when, you know, when he starts hitting those shots,
08:55 it even makes the defense have to extend a little bit farther.
08:59 It's just difficult.
09:01 Save, trying to get that charge.
09:03 Pogoy is on fire right now, drains another three-pointer.
09:08 TNT, Oftana driving.
09:10 Look at that, the hands of Joshua Munzon.
09:12 Here we go, showtime.
09:15 And he lays it in.
09:20 Pogoy, RR has been on fire, and he gets another one.
09:24 But there's going to be a foul.
09:26 Smart play by Zamar, not a lot of time left here in the third quarter.
09:32 Zamar, inside, Flores with a finish.
09:37 That's tough.
09:39 They played pretty good defense for about 22 seconds, and then right at the last minute,
09:44 what a nice pass, and what a nice nifty left-handed shot.
09:48 This is the biggest lead of the game for Northport, 31-point lead right now for Dabat-Tampere.
09:55 Aurien, again, not shy to shoot.
09:57 Finally makes a three.
10:00 Turns the ball over in that first possession.
10:02 But Zamar turns the ball over.
10:05 Someone's got to tell them.
10:06 What a block there by Zane.
10:08 Yeah, definitely.
10:10 Two-point saving block there, but maybe he should have gave up the two
10:15 because then they got a three right after that.
10:17 Kim Aurien really going in hard.
10:19 Again, you can't really say anything negative about Kim Aurien's production.
10:23 He's just, you know, whatever you give him, he'll take it.
10:26 Back-to-back threes by Kim Aurien.
10:28 Think about this, first and second quarter is dominated by Northport, 32-29.
10:32 That's all he is.
10:34 It's not like he's playing flashy or making all the--
10:38 Kubutin now attacking.
10:40 Takes it out, Montalbo.
10:41 Three seconds, has to shoot.
10:43 Three-pointer.
10:44 It's good.
10:45 Big shot there by Montalbo.
10:47 Points in the paint.
10:49 24, TNT, 44, Northport.
10:52 So they are getting inside.
10:55 Kim Aurien with another three.
10:58 Oh, risky pass by Kelly.
11:00 That was going nowhere.
11:01 Navarro doesn't see it.
11:04 Aurien on fire.
11:06 Aurien with a three.
11:09 First things first, though, they got to get stopped.
11:11 Simple basketball.
11:12 Score and don't let the other team score.
11:15 So it had a lane.
11:16 Navarro is there for the putback.
11:19 Remember we were talking about not giving up any more layups?
11:23 They cannot afford to give up those shots.
11:26 Too many second chance opportunities here for the Batam.
11:30 They feel the TNT draw back.
11:33 Kim Aurien wants to go down low.
11:35 Pogoy with double digits, leading scorer for TNT.
11:38 Adds to his point total.
11:40 100% solid effort at all times from his team.
11:43 And again, that's a good habit to teach,
11:45 especially for a young team like this.
11:47 Take a look at that teamwork by Northport.
11:50 Can be more calm.
11:52 Because everything is taking --
11:54 And right now, Jason Plaza, oh, he has four in this game.
11:58 Not a good game for Jason Plaza.
12:01 But Pogoy is doing his thing.

12:08 Northport.
12:10 Calva shoots the jumper.
12:12 Oh, smishes that one through.
12:14 Take it for whatever -- any direction it comes from,
12:18 just take it for now.
12:20 Oh, but Zod drains a three on cue.
12:24 Hey, Northport is definitely a team to be reckoned with.
12:30 I think a lot of teams are watching this game right now
12:34 and saying, hey, anytime you're playing against Northport,
12:37 do not relax.
12:39 Aurean feeling it.
12:43 He gets split.
12:44 Pogoy from way downtown.
12:46 Yes, sir!
12:47 TNT with a run down.
12:49 He flies over the A board.
12:51 He's okay.
12:52 They got numbers, five versus four.
12:54 Pantrana still on the other side.
12:56 Tolentino takes advantage and gets two points.
13:00 That might be the "pamatay sunog" for the Northport bottom here.
13:05 You might be right, my friend, but again, let's see.
13:09 Uh-oh.
13:10 Taha takes a dip.
13:12 Pogoy drops Taha and drains the three.
13:15 Aurean almost at a steal.
13:17 They flip it over to Taha.
13:19 Taha shoots a three, airballs it.
13:22 Ball ends up with Taha, gets tipped.
13:24 Tolentino cleans it up and finishes for the bottom, Pierre.
13:27 Last two minutes.
13:30 Pogoy now being double teamed.
13:35 Has to kick it out to Ponferrada.
13:39 This, Flores all over RR.
13:42 The defense of Flores, RR.
13:46 Yes, sir!
13:47 34 for R. Pogoy.
13:50 Seconds on the shot clock, under a minute remaining.
13:52 Taha shoots a three.
13:56 Swishes it through.
13:59 That's a little statement shot, too.
14:01 That's like, "Hey, I can play this game.
14:03 Give me a little playing time, coach."
14:06 And that puts the lead back up to 18.
14:08 Aurean, what a game he's had so far.
14:10 18 for Kim Aurean.
14:12 And that was a nice "hazy" in-out dribble along the baseline.
14:18 Great, strong finish at the rack with the left.
14:24 Again, not giving up the basketball.
14:26 It goes all the way and sails in for the layup.
14:32 And Tomtaobo adding the finishing touches to the small game
14:36 as Northport will probably hold this.
14:39 But let's see if they can score this because, of course,
14:42 the margin matters here, the lead, the quotient system.
14:47 I don't think they're going to take that shot.
14:48 Perhaps not.
14:50 As Northport will head to their fourth straight win here in the
14:54 the pink cup after dropping their first one.
