PBA Finals: TNT tries to drive Ginebra out of groove again
TNT’s defense has been on full display through the first two games of the PBA Governors’ Cup Finals that Barangay Ginebra coach Tim Cone couldn’t help but admit feeling outmaneuvered by his longtime friend and adversary Chot Reyes.
But Reyes, whose Tropang Giga will look to secure a commanding 3-0 lead on Friday night at Smart Araneta Coliseum, offered nothing complex as to why they have the Gin Kings’ number at this stage of the championship fight.
“Our focus is just knowing what Ginebra wants to do and trying our best to stop them and making them work for it,” Reyes said ahead of the 7:30 p.m. contest that was oddly scheduled on All Saints Day.
PBA Finals: TNT ‘not thinking’ about 2-0 lead over Ginebra
MANILA, Philippines—TNT may be two games away from winning its second straight PBA Governors’ Cup title but that doesn’t mean the Tropang Giga will take their feet off the gas pedal just yet.
Following the squad’s Game 2 win over Ginebra, veteran Jayson Castro said that he and the team are in no position to be complacent.
Instead, they aim to take things one game at a time in hopes of winning the import-laden conference’s richest prize for the second straight season.
