Nueva Ecija boasts a deeper roster, a better overall record and will be playing in front of the hometown crowd at the Nueva Ecija Coliseum. READ:
JC Marcelino of Zamboanga and Will McAloney of Nueva Ecija will play key roles for their teams in the National Finals.
The Rice Vanguards have tasted defeat but once in 27 games en route to the South division crown, while Zamboanga needed to rally from 19-points down in the third quarter to snatch the North division title from Batangas City. Cabiltes said he would rather suffer that loss than fail to capture the national title for team owner Bong Cuevas, team manager Ivan Cuevas and Palayan City Mayor Rianne Cuevas.Opposing Coach Vic Ycasiano doesn’t mind the underdog tag and is focused on the task entrusted to him by Zamboanga Family’s Brand Sardines team owner Anita Kaw.
If Nueva Ecija manages to win both, the Rice Vanguards will be gunning for a sweep of the best-of-five playoffs at the Mayor Vitaliano Agan Coliseum in Zamboanga City. If necessary, Game 4 will be played at the same venue. In case the series goes the full route, Game 5 will return to Palayan City on December 16.
