Inamin ni Barangay Ginebra Head Coach na si Tim Cone ang kanyang pagkakamali na gumamit lamang ng pitong player sa laro kontra Terrafirma.
napag-desisyunan ng mga coaching staff ng Ginebra na iikot lamang ang rotation kina Brownlee, Standhardinger, Malonzo , Thompson , Pinto , Gray , at Pringle.
Dinahilan ni Tim Cone na “Well I didn’t want to lose the game. I mean we just made a decision from our coaching staff that we were going to go for this win and this was crucial for us to get into that top 4”.
Ngunit ang stratehiyang iyon ay nagkaproblema dahil sa pagod na naramdaman ng mga players.
“it kinda backfired on us cause our guys played a little tired and I was kinda kickin myself throughout the game saying I should have played the bench more, should have played more guys cause we were playing tired” saad ni Cone.
Dinagdag pa ni Tim Cone na “But that’s just my style. I kinda circle the wagons whenever we have a real big important game that I think is gonna get us over the hump, then we circle the wagons and make sure that we get the guys out there that we want to play”.
Sa huli ay panalo ang Brgy. Ginebra kontra Terrafirma sa score na 109-104 upang umangat sa pangalawang pwesto sa standing ng PBA.
