OKBET UPDATE : Barangay Ginebra handed Bay Area its first setback in the PBA Commissioner’s Cup with a resounding 111-93 victory in front of a partisan crowd at the Philsports Arena in Pasig, Sunday night. Justin Brownlee was stellar once again in leading the way for Barangay Ginebra in this victory.
The two-time winner of the award for Best Import concluded the game with 46 points, 18 of which he scored all by himself in the third quarter. After the Dragons had gotten off to an amazing 4-0 start in the conference, he spearheaded the breakaway that ultimately contributed to the Dragons’ downfall.
In the Kings’ game against the guest team, Andrew Nicholson was making his debut, and this player ruined it by shooting 65% from the field, grabbing 12 rebounds, dishing out three assists, and stealing two balls.
“I don’t think we accomplished anything really noteworthy. We did not perform any zones or other activities along such lines. We simply executed our standard defensive strategy, and we did it at an extremely high level. According to our head coach, Tim Cone, “I believed the level of energy that our squad was at was through the roof.”
“That was actually the most important thing to remember when playing them. We felt like we were playing in the championship round. It did in fact do that. And I was aware of that sensation throughout the entirety of the day. You had asked me earlier if my team and I were motivated, and he responded by saying, “Yes, we were motivated.”
Both Jamie Malonzo and Christian Standhardinger scored in double figures, with the former tallying 17 points and the latter tallying 11 points and 10 rebounds. Through a drive with fewer than seven minutes remaining, he extended Ginebra’s lead to its largest of the game, 28 points, making the score 100-72.
Jeremiah Gray made a successful return to the PBA after recovering from an ACL injury, and Stanley Pringle contributed 10 points to the win that provided him that opportunity.
OKBET UPDATE ON BARANGAY TEAM
The Barangay team had a field goal percentage of 47 percent, but it was their defense that made the difference in the game. They restricted production in the Bay Area to less than three digits.
Our defense was without a doubt the most impressive aspect of what we accomplished tonight. Cone remarked that the team’s primary objective was to “come out and try to defend.”
Against Friday, October 14, at 5:45 PM, the Kings will take on Phoenix Super LPG at the SMART Araneta Coliseum in an effort to win their third consecutive game. The Kings now have a record of 2-1.
Nicholson, meanwhile, led the Dragons in scoring with 28 points and was the team leader in rebounds with 12, despite the fact that he appeared to be exhausted by the second half. During his debut assignment as the substitute for fellow former NBA player Myles Powell, the team suffered a terrible loss, and he only scored two points.
In their first loss since moving to the country in August of last year, support was supplied by Glen Yang, who scored 15 points and grabbed eight rebounds, and Kobey Lam, who contributed 13 points. Before Sunday, the EASL-bound team won every single one of its games, including any tuneups they played.
At the Big Dome on the following Sunday, October 16, at 4:30 o’clock in the afternoon, Bay Area will be put to the test once more as they take on San Miguel Beer, who are the defending conference champions.
