    PCFBL five beats Indons

    GENTING HIGHLANDS, Malaysia — The rivalry between the Philippines and Indonesia was renewed yesterday as Philippine Chinese Friendship Basketball League outlasted Asaba in overtime 50-44 to jumpstart its four-peat bid in the 16th ASEAN Veteran Invitational at the Genting Highlands resort gym here.

    In a heated showdown between two teams fancied to meet in the finals anew, PCFBL went to former Crispa center Noli Banate, Andrew Ongteco and Terry Que to ward off the spirited challenge of the Indons in the 50-years-old division of the five-day tournament.

    The 6-foot-5 Banate, using his height advantage, exploded for 18 points but it was Que who delivered the telling blow against the Indons.

    With only one point separating the Filipinos from the Indons, the 5-foot-5 Que, co-team owner of Welcoat Paints in the PBA, buried a short jumper to give PCFBL a much-needed breather, 45-42.

    After Banate and Bong dela Cruz combined forces to thwart Asaba’s offensive thrust, Ongseco knocked in his second triple of the game to finally unnerve the Indons, 48-42.

    Banate, who drives his own passenger jeepney in Davao when not playing for teams of his Chinese friends in Manila, capped his sterling performance with another putback.

    "It was a scary victory but a win is a win," said PCFBL president and coach Jimmy Lim. "We just hope we could play better next time. We hardly had a practice in Manila that’s why we struggled early."

    The win enabled the Filipinos to gain a share of the lead with Singapore in the 10-team tournament. Ongteco finished with 9 points, while Que, who engaged a 6-foot-3 Indon center to a near fistfight as a result of their physical game, added 3.

    The burly dela Cruz, playing his tough-guy role which he is known for during his Crispa days, contributed only two points but it was him who sparked the team rally with his court wizardry.

    Freddie Hubalde was just but a shadow of his old self as he finished with only four points, missing several open shots. William Lao also stood his ground against an agile Indon center who was limited to only two points in the crucial fourth quarter.
    this might be the game of the oldies....

      • ex-pro's - now doing better in other leagues

        some ex-pro are now doing great in other leagues...don't u think they should be given another chance to play in the PBA?

        1.) Marlon Basco - became a two-time MVP player in the NBC - because he was given a playing time that made him show what he wasn't able to do while he was in Gins.
        2.) Bruce Dacia - same as Basco, he's doing great in the NBC...

        any other???
