Filipino: Nagliyab sa galing ang Gilas Pilipinas Basketball sa ikatlong yugto ng laro upang pabagsakin ang palaban na New Zealand Wellington Saints, 84-81 ngayon Sabado sa Master Game Face MVP Cup 2015 sa Smart Araneta Coliseum. Muling isinalba ni Terrence Romeo ang Gilas Pilipinas sa kanyang 12 Puntos sa ika-apat kasama sa kabuuang 18 Puntos niya. Dito ay nagtala rin si Romeo sa tres ng 4 na buslo sa 8 mintis.

Romeo dropped a bomb in Araneta Coliseum as he made four dagger treys to lift Philippine Basketball Team against a resilient New Zealand in the final quarter. Romeo missed all his freethrows the entire game, but converted the two most important free shots for an 84-81 cushion lead.

Andray Blatche chipped-in 16 Points for the Filipino cause, while Calvin Abueva hustled and added 10 Points. Blatche is still nursing a minor injury from a prior game with Talk N Text.

In the third frame, Gilas was able to tie the ballgame 45-44 with a Marc Pingris follow-up. However, New Zealand widened the lead further, 54-65 with Gilas falling to early penalty due to fouls.




At the half, comebacking naturalized center Andray Blatche and Asi “The Rock” Taulava led Filipino dribblers with 8 Points respectively. New Zealand outrebounded Gilas with 24 against 13 Caroms. The Kiwis also shot better from the field with 55% to 42% fieldgoals.

Kevin Braswell paced the Saints with 23 Points in a losing effort. New Zealand was in a dejavu of sorts, leading the entire game but losing late in crunchtime to Gilas in Jones Cup 2015 behind Hontiveros heroics.
