Photo Credit: Philstar</td></tr></tbody></table>Prior to the tip off, the Conference’s individual awardees were presented to the humongous Araneta Coliseum crowd. Barangay Ginebra’s Greg Slaughter was crowned as the Best Player of the Conference while Allen Durham won his 2nd straight Best Import of the Conference Award. Backtracking to 2016, Durham bagged his 1st Bobby Parks Sr. Award but it didn’t go well for him and the Bolts as they lost to Ginebra, 4 games to 2.<br /><br />Ginebra’s impeccable speed on the floor became Meralco’s waterloo in Game 1. To counter it, Coach Norman Black forced his gang to run the court and tried to beat Barangay with its own game. Early in the first, the run and gun strategy paid off for the Bolts. But lo and behold, Scottie Thompson came to the rescue with his rebounding and putback prowess that made the game tight.<br /><br />Ginebra was too prompt to match up Meralco’s agility and intensity and so, Coach Norman Black unveiled his backup game plan: good ball distribution. Meralco took a 9-point, 17-8 advantage due to unselfish basketball of its players: finding the right and open man for the sure basket. With the run, Coach Tim Cone called for a ceasefire to ice the hot shooting Bolts.<br /><div id="unruly-unit"></div><br />Greg Slaughter came off the bench and helped his team caught up with Meralco. On the other hand, Ranidel De Ocampo checked in as well to at least add size to the Bolts and put body on “Gregzilla” in the middle. <br /><br />After the first 12 minutes, Meralco had the 24-18 advantage over Ginebra.<br /><br />Both squads started the 2nd quarter without their respective imports. Meralco became a little bit of careless on the floor while Ginebra led by veteran Mark Caguioa began to attack and trim down the lead.<br /><br />During the Ginebra onslaught, PBA legend and basketball icon Robert Jaworski Sr. entered the venue to support his team. His presence helped boost the morale of Barangay Ginebra and took the lead from Meralco, 28-27 with 7 more minutes remaining in the half.<br /><br />Old but never forgotten. Despite the limited minutes, veterans Mark Caguioa and Sol Mercado made most of their time on the court. Caguioa alone posted 6 markers that initiated the Ginebra comeback.<br /><br />It was all Ginebra locals who were giving Coach Black a headache. Justin Brownlee only had 7 points but in spite of his slow start, Barangay Ginebra still managed to post a 3-point, 40-37 lead after the 1st half.<br /><br />Meralco slightly recovered at the start of the 2nd half. Allen Durham led the way as his team regained the lead, 41-40. Durham, the back-to-back Best Import had already recorded 16 points with over 21 minutes remaining in the game.<br /><br />After being scoreless for almost 5 minutes, Ginebra finally made a basket through a loose ball converted to a slam dunk from Japeth Aguilar followed by a monster swat. Ranidel De Ocampo however, pulled the trigger from the corner three as an answer to fellow Gilas Pilipinas cager.<br /><br />Aside from Allen Durham, another notable Bolt was Ranidel De Ocampo. RDO was a perfect aid for Durham in guarding Ginebra’s Joe Devance and Japeth Aguilar while the Meralco import took care of Slaughter. De Ocampo jotted down a dozen boards with one more period to go.<br /><br />Justin Brownlee who was almost a sleeper in this game, tied the game at 57 apiece with just a minute to go in the penultimate quarter. But Allen Durham sank 2 charities to retake the lead and Garvo Lanete ended the quarter with a trey. 62-57 in favor of Meralco.<br /><br />LA Tenorio and Sol Mercado combined efforts to level the scores at 62 as the final quarter unfolded.<br /><br />Meralco relied heavily on its transition offense that resulted to another 6-point lead and cost Coach Tim Cone another timeout. <br /><br />Coach Cone realized that his team was outrebounded by the smaller Meralco Bolts in entire game so he decided to field in his twin towers to take care of the boards and kick them out to the open man which became effective and tied the game anew, 75-all under 4 minutes of the game.<br /><br />LA Tenorio and Scottie Thompson added 2 points each to widen Ginebra’s lead to 4, 79-75 with 1:44 remaining in the game clock. <br /><br />Justin Brownlee located the wide-opened LA Tenorio for a seamless three pointer for a 6-point lead. The biggest margin that Ginebra recorded in this game. Tenorio made 2 bonus foul shots to make it 8 under a minute which sealed game number 2 in favor of his team.<br /><br />Led by 10 points, 86-76, Sol Mercado melted the clock as Ginebra heads to game number 3 with 2-0 series lead.<br /><br />Game 3 will be on Wednesday, October 18, 7pm at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.<br /><br /><b>--Joey Boy Capos, The Summit Express</b></div>

PBA Finals: Ginebra draws first blood, overpowers Meralco 102 - 87

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">MANILA, Philippines - For Meralco Bolts, Friday the 13th is really a bad luck as they lost Game 1 of the 2017 Governors’ Cup Finals to the defending champions Barangay Ginebra, 102 - 87 at the Quezon Convention Center in Lucena City on October 13.<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgT9_-j6eJVwzC28k5_0p4lzF3tmV9QirT38EEHesXt3VWstTQQoievMJZbkAZEy7HQ5dzc_sh28Tj3CQF41gSubgSEINzNE7KUR41rAQjT5S3L8oJOxuaEQuYXcsXDY-T1MxdyZH6bc7qx/s1600/brownlee+vs+durham.jpg" imageanchor="1" rel="nofollow" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Justin Brownlee Ginebra" border="0" class="img" data-original-height="427" data-original-width="620" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgT9_-j6eJVwzC28k5_0p4lzF3tmV9QirT38EEHesXt3VWstTQQoievMJZbkAZEy7HQ5dzc_sh28Tj3CQF41gSubgSEINzNE7KUR41rAQjT5S3L8oJOxuaEQuYXcsXDY-T1MxdyZH6bc7qx/s1600/brownlee+vs+durham.jpg" title="Justin Brownlee Ginebra" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Justin Brownlee leads with 32 points, 19 rebounds and 6 assists to seal game 1. Photo Credit: Inquirer.net</td></tr></tbody></table>It was a year ago since Ginebra and Meralco squared off at the 2016 Governors’ Cup finals where Barangay ended its title drought after 8 long years. Tonight, same squads opened the new chapter of their rivalry book. The question now is, will “love be sweeter the second time around” for Ginebra or will it be “revenge is sweeter” for Meralco?<br /><b><br /></b> <b>RELATED STORY</b><br /><a href="http://pinoybuzz.blogkorner.com/2017/10/ginebra-vs-meralco-pba-finals-governors-cup-2017-livestream-schedule-results.html" rel="nofollow">Ginebra vs Meralco PBA Finals Governors' Cup 2017: livestream, schedule, results</a><br /><br />Very rare that PBA goes out of town during the championship games. But for the opener, Lucena City hosted Ginebra and Meralco. In terms of crowd support, Ginebra has this humongous advantage.<br /><br />Truly, the Gilas Pilipinas stint helped Baser Amer in terms of skills and basketball IQ and it manifested right after the couple of international tournaments where he played a major role together with the rest of the cadets. The Meralco guard, didn’t mind the Ginebra crowd but rather, silenced the Barangay in the early phase of the game while Ginebra bigs Japeth Aguilar and Joe Devance provided the spark for their team.<br /><div id="unruly-unit"></div><br />Height is might and speed kills. This was the story of the 1st quarter where Barangay dominated the Bolts. The towering presence of Greg Slaughter and the agility of Justin Brownlee placed Ginebra 11 points ahead of Meralco, 29 - 18 after the first 12 minutes of the game.<br /><br />The height discrepancy obviously hurt Meralco. The absence of Kelly Nabong due to suspension made it harder for the Bolts to contain the “Gregzilla” especially in 2nd chance opportunities. Allen Durham who originally plays the 3 and 4 position was forced to move to the center to defend the middle ground against Greg Slaughter and Japeth Aguilar.<br /><br />As the 2nd quarter buzzer sounded, Meralco Bolts found themselves downed by 14 points, 49 - 35. Both imports led all scorers. Justin Brownlee had 13 while his counterpart, Allen Durham banked 10.<br /><br />Meralco started the 2nd half hot with Durham and Amer’s back-to-back baskets that forced Coach Tim Cone to call a halt with less than a minute gone by. LA Tenorio however, was too quick to retaliate as he stepped on the gas pedal for 4 points.<br /><br />Midway of the third, Allen Durham slowed down from scoring. Good thing, Meralco locals stepped-up and managed to cut the Ginebra lead to just a single digit. Cliff Hodge and Garvo Lanete led the offensive assault for the Bolts.<br /><br />Allen Durham came back to life at the 2-minute mark of the quarter with an alley-oop two-handed jam from Mike Tolomia and brought the margin down to 6.<br /><br />Mike Tolomia rang the bell from the outside and one after getting clipped by Sol Mercado. With the rare 4-point play, Meralco chipped the lead to just 4 but Greg Slaughter made a dunk and brought their advantage back to 6, 77-71 heading onto the final canto.<br /><br />Meralco’s offensive onslaught in the penultimate quarter was promptly stopped by Ginebra at the start of the fourth. Barangay added 5 more points to increase its lead to 11 with 10 more minutes in the game.<br /><br />Despite Ginebra’s hefty advantage, the players kept their pace quick that left the Bolts flat-footed. Barangay’s lead ballooned to 18 with 4 more minutes remaining in the game clock.<br /><br />Coach Tim Cone showed mercy on Coach Norman Black by pulling out his gunners and sent his 3rd stringers to the floor. The final horn echoed in the Quezon Convention Center and Ginebra officially took game number 1, 102-87 with Justin Brownlee topping all protagonists with 32 markers, 19 boards and 6 dimes.<br /><br />Game 2 will be on Sunday, October 15 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum at 6:30pm to be aired live on ESPN 5.<br /><br /><b>-- Joey Boy Capos, The Summit Express</b></div>
