The Giants came big in the last 5mins to overcome a 13point deficit in Game 3. Thanks to a trey and a slam from Nino Caneleta that created a spark. Felt like de ja vu from Game 2 where Purefoods was down and won the game with 1 point.

As usual, Sakuragi (Marc Pingris), was all over the place, running after the loose ball.

Kerby gave the PF the lead with a beautiful pump fake against Joe Devance!

Although James Yap went 0-6 from the arc, he made the shots that he needed to make!

Everybody had a good game. PJ Simon is starting to get back in form. Reavis doing his best job under the basket. And of course, Roger Yap, who’s playing the best in his career.

Willie Miller had a chance to win the game with 3.4 secs left, but the defense of the Giants was solid.

Final score: Purefoods 79 - Alaska 78.

The Aces will try to extend the series on Wednesday, but I’m sure Coach RG will bring all the guns to seal the deal!

1 more win, guys! Let’s do this! Go Purefoods!!
