Good 1st game for the blazers. They just need to limit their turnovers

Thanks!

I saw the score on the game thread.

[AltarBoy^_^]

70-61! Carlo Lastimosa saves the day! 1st-3rd quarter, pinahirapan tayo ng Pirates! Akala ko hindi pa rin tayo mananalo sa kanila! Kailangan pa nila mag-improve sa offense at galing pa sa depensa!

[mac04]

They should limit those turnovers. Hirap sila pag nag-full court press ang kalaban.

Finally, Sinco is maturing. Ü nice to see that this team has lot of athletic players, they just cant finish those easy lay-ups and freakin' FTs.

Great end game!

One game at a time!

Animo Benilde!

mukhang gumagamit na ng triangle ngayon si RDR ah. hmmmmm...

[Ahura Mazda]

Thanks to your team consultant.

[AltarBoy^_^]

Teka, bakit ba ang daming nagsasabi hindi ka tunay na Lasalista BK? Hanggang LAFI sikat ka!

Medyo konti pang hasa sa triangle nila, parating nasusundot ng kalaban!

gumamit nga ng triangle si RDR, nagkaproblema naman ang free throw shooting.

Lastimosa plays big in 4th quarter as Benilde blazes past Lyceum

MANILA, Philippines – St. Benilde went to Carlo Lastimosa and then its defense in the fourth quarter as it turned the tables on a pesky Lyceum side to pull off a 70-61 victory that opened its campaign with a bang in the 88th NCAA basketball tournament at The Arena in San Juan City.

Lastimosa, nephew of former PBA star Jojo, played decoy at first but decided to take over in the fourth quarter when he poured in 10 of his 14 points before the Blazers toughened the defensive screws to nail their first win that established their status as one of the tournament dark horses.

Trailing 49-53 entering the last period, St. Benilde forced Lyceum to take hurried, contested shots and turn the ball over enough for the former to hold the latter to just eight points in the final canto.

"He took charge when we needed it but I think it was more our defense in the fourth quarter that helped us through," said St. Benilde coach Richard del Rosario, referring to his explosive third year guard from Cagayan de Oro City.

For a while there, it looked like the Pirates are on their way to snatching the win as they launched a late run in the third quarter to go into the last 10 minutes with a 53-49 lead and the momentum.

Enter Lastimosa.

Lastimosa unleashed eight points early in the last quarter including six straight points in a 16-4 blast that transformed a four-point deficit into a 65-57 upperhand that the Blazers never relinquished with a solid enough defense.

"Coach told me to be aggressive in the fourth because I was passing the ball more early so I took over," said the 21-year-old Lastimosa, whose family and St. Benilde's sports development department had a misunderstanding that was eventually settled.

Naks, featured ang kalokohan ni Mr. Archer sa huling paragraph ng write-up! Sana ma-feature uli siya at nawawala ang CSB Green Peppers sa half-time! Oh wait, tinanggal nga pala niya karamihan after manalo ng NCC All-Women's Division crown against DLSU Pep many months ago!

Parang naging Durant si Carlo sa game na ito, playing decoy and then unleashing his offensive prowess and defensive stop to lead the team to victory!

[Mapecon]

Good start for us!

Nagsuot na ng blinders si Carlo nung 4th quarter.

Mukhang nagparamdam kay Mapecon si Sinco.

Sayang!! Hindi ako nakapanood

[AltarBoy^_^]

Medyo maganda mga galaw ni Sinco dito at marami siyang pwede pasahan ng bola! Pero ang maganda dito eh sumasaksak na uli siya ng hindi natatakot na masupalpal! Kaso freethrows naman ang problema!

[oreo22]

Ang saya manuod ng live kanina hahaha parang kaaway ng CSB lahat ng crowd nasa tatlong sulok ng Arena.

Medyo madami ngang Turnovers, mahina sa ball handling yung ibang players natin o medyo nagmamadali sila kaya nabibitawan agad yung bola.

Nakakahilo sila panuorin kanina pwede silang lahat sa "BEST in PASSING" sa 24 seconds na shot clock nakaikot na yung bola sa kanilang lahat

At ang freethrows isa lang ang pumapasok sa bawat trip nila sa free throw line si Luis nakaraming ganyan.

Baste pala next game sa sabado ano sa tingin nyo?

[AltarBoy^_^]

Nag-perform ba sa half-time ang CLONE PEP ng CSB oreo22?

[oreo22]

uhmmmmm paano ba madidistinguish ang fake sa original na Peppers?

ang nakita ko dun kaninang nagperform nung halftime yung mga nagperform nung opening,

[Ahura Mazda]

Eh di fake nga yun.

Nasa previous pages yung story about the original and clone Green Peppers.

[AltarBoy^_^]

Pansinin mo maige uniform, Clone din ng Animo Squad pagdating sa outfit!
