By Musong R. Castillo
POWERADE did something it has never done before in its resurgence as a legitimate PBA force this season, and that is win a tight game without Gary David in the stretch.
POWERADE did something it has never done before in its resurgence as a legitimate PBA force this season, and that is win a tight game without Gary David in the stretch.
POWERADE and Barako Bull knock each other out today with the winner advancing to another do-or-die match tomorrow against Meralco to determine the sixth and last semifinalist of the PBA Governors’ Cup.
Jason Castro scored Talk ‘N Text’s last six points and carried the Tropang Texters to a high-wire 113-111 victory over Barangay Ginebra last night in the PBA Governors’ Cup at Smart Araneta Coliseum.
BARANGAY Ginebra coach Siot Tanquingcen knows that, in order for his Gin Kings to nail down a semifinal berth, they would have to do what they have so far never done in the PBA Governors’ Cup.
UPHOLDING his reputation as a clutch player, Gary David matched a six-year old record while spoiling another one. David exploded for 30 points as Powerade roared to a third straight victory at the expense of Rain or Shine, 104-98, last night in the PBA Governors’ Cup at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
OMAR Sneed scattered 32 points and snared down a night-high 23 rebounds while Gary David was just average with 28 markers as Powerade tripped Talk ‘N Text, 110-105, for a second straight win in the PBA Governors’ Cup at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
TALK ‘N Text and Powerade, both coming off big wins, tangle today with the winner climbing out of the cellar and earning a legitimate chance to remain in contention in the PBA Governors’ Cup.

Powerade, a team that has battled through challenges on and off the court, braces for its toughest challenge yet. With their offense clicking, the Tigers pummeled the Air21 Express, 121-92, Sunday night, but somehow, things still aren’t as easy as it looksfor Powerade. The team sits on third place at 4-3 with two games left [...]
Perennial MVP contender Arwind Santos of Petron Blaze and crack rookie JV Casio of Powerade are the early frontrunners for starting spots in the Veterans and Rookies, Sophomores, Juniors team for this year’s PBA All-Star Game.
Rudy Hatfield had a solid offensive night but the veteran workhorse still made sure he was big in the endgame, performing the very task that has given him a career in the PBA.
Looking in the pink of health, Sammy Gello-Ani did not bear the slightest trace of the frightening trauma he went through at the Mar De Plata in Argentina only a few weeks ago.
