Chot Reyes is under no illusion of seeing Barangay Ginebra's resident import Justin Brownlee come out with another subpar performance when the TNT Tropang Giga and the Gin Kings face off in an all-import Game 6 on Friday at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.The Tropang Giga got a much-needed boost to their confidence on Wednesday following their 99-72 lynching of the Gin Kings in a surprisingly lopsided Game 5 win.
'Coach Tim rested him early, so that's kind of a one step backward, two steps forward attack,' explained Reyes. 'We know he's gonna be ready and come out hard like the rest of the entire Ginebra team, so we need to stay on our toes, be prepared for a big Ginebra fightback in the next game.'Brownlee, the three-time PBA Best Import, was not in his element in Game 5 as he was held down to a PBA career-low eight points on a frigid 3-of-13 shooting.
