MANILA, Philippines — TNT weathered Barangay Ginebra 's last-ditch rally by making the crucial foul shots down the stretch to hack out an 87-83 decision, forcing a winner-take-all Game 7 in their PBA Season 49 Commissioner's Cup on Wednesday at the Araneta Coliseum. Newly-minted three-time PBA Best Import Rondae Hollis-Jefferson made two free throws to make up for a missed pair with 6.2 seconds to give his team a four-point cushion.
'We just told Poy to focus on shutting off the noise. That's the only thing that's important for him,' Reyes told media men after the game. 'I told him, of all of our players in the series. he was the one with the highest plus-minus. But we need him on the floor because his presence is very important.' Hollis-Jefferson bounced back from two lackluster games that saw him make just 12-of-44 from the field overall.
