I could sense the upcoming collapse as early as the start of the 4th quarter. When they erected that double-digit lead, Alab went larong mayaman. Gone was the pressure on the ball carriers. Gone was the sense of purpose on offense. The warning sign for me as when Hubalde took an ill-advised jumper from the elbow with not a single white shirt underneath the basket for the rebound. This team needs to learn to have a killer instinct and not coast when things are easy.
Also, this team needs plays that don't center on Parks. I'm dumbfounded why the focus on offense remains Parks in the perimeter or Domingo in the post. Why not run plays for Carter and Hughes? The imports need to learn to be go-to guys for the team as well, but it looks like Cuan is under orders from Dy to make his boys look good so they can get nice fat PBA contracts come this year's draft (and Dy gets a fat slice of that as well).
