MANILA, Philippines — Sophomore guard Stephen Holt may have been branded as an import stopper, especially as he had the unenviable job of trying to defend TNT's prolific import Rondae Hollis-Jefferson in the PBA Governors' Cup Finals.But the 32-year-old standout from Saint Mary's knows very well it takes a 'barangay' to contain the newly-minted PBA Best Import.
