Inamin ni Brgy. Ginebra Head Coach Tim Cone na kinuha nila ang pagkakataon na talunin ang NLEX Road Warriors na wala ang kanilang Import na si Wayne Selden dahil sa natamo nitong injury.
“It’s really, really bad luck (for NLEX). We didn’t know until warm-ups that their import wasn’t gonna play. Obviously, the game would’ve been different with Selden there. He’s a stud,” saad ni Cone.
“But you know that was an opportunity for us to came out and you know take advantage of that and we did. Im proud of our guys” dagdag pa ng head coach.
Nanguna para sa Ginebra ang kanilang import na si Justin Brownlee na nakagawa ng 31 points sa 14-of-20 shooting (70%). Nagtala din si Brownlee ng 13 rebounds at six assists.
Sa huli ay tinambakan ng Ginebra ang Nlex sa score na 127-93 upang makapasok sa semi-finals at makakatapat naman ang San Miguel Beermen sa isang best of five semifinal series.
