MANILA, Philippines—TNT coach Chot Reyes and center Poy Erram shared a special moment during a team gathering after winning the PBA Commissioner’s Cup title.

An Instagram video posted by the Tropang Giga on Saturday shows Reyes and Erram hugging it out just days after their heated altercation during a timeout in Game 5.

“Sabi ko sa’yo, ang galing mo, e. Ang galing mo, pre,” said a proud Reyes to Erram.

Although Erram didn’t have the best game in TNT’s title-clinching win on Friday with just five points and five rebounds, it was his Game 6 performance that turned the tide for the Tropang Giga.

With TNT’s season on the line, the 35-year-old Erram delivered 14 points and six rebounds plus a steal and a block as the Tropang Giga stretched the series to a Game 7 where they outlasted the Gin Kings, 87-83, in overtime.

Reyes and Erram celebrated their third PBA title together all with TNT, which has now won a total of 11 PBA championships.
