Terrence vs jayson will have to wait

The mouth-watering match-up didn’t happen when TNT KaTropa ended San Miguel Beer’s two-game winning streak in the PBA Philippine Cup on Sunday.

Jayson Castro versus Terrence Romeo will have to wait for another time. That is, if the KaTropa and the Beermen cross paths again in the playoffs.

After shooting 24 points and issuing 11 assists in leading TNT to an impressive 104-93 clipping of SMB, Castro refused to take the bait when asked about his motivation against the Beermen and Romeo in particular.

“We’re a team and it’s not just all about me,” said Castro, the Cignal-PBA Press Corps Player of the Week for Jan. 21 to 27. “There are five of us out there at any given time.”

Romeo sat out a third straight game because of an ankle sprain. After being traded away by TNT, reportedly upon to the request of his former teammates, the playmaker said he should “be careful in choosing who my real friends are.”

As reported by the Inquirer, the trade was consummated as some TNT players petitioned management to release Romeo after he got into several fights even during practice.
