Of course, the defense is always going to be there in the finals, but if you can’t make shots in the finals, you get no chance,” said Tropang Giga head coach Jojo Lastimosa.
TNT banked on Rondae Hollis-Jefferson , Mikey Williams , and Calvin Oftana to carry the scoring load in Game 1 but still lacked help from its other stars. The Gin Kings, on the other hand, flourished on offense with five players scoring in double figures led by import Justin Brownlee, who churned out a game-high 31 points on 6-of-11 shooting from three-point land.
