What a shootout.

NorthPort showed other teams a blueprint to keep up with the Dragons. Run an efficient offense, and have a shifty guy to attack Liu Chuanxing.
 
Arwind's tirang takot and the technical on coach Pido aside from that buzzer beater sealed the deal for Bay Area, can't wait to see this team against the top dogs
 
I wan to see Bleague teams in the pba just for the drama especially those with pinoy imports
 
A good game plan of NP against Bay area, and damn Berto is a mad man. Berto should need to recall back in Gilas pool.

Would the game be more in favor of NP if Ibe didn't commit early fouls?
 
Chan and Tolentino also had a good game. Would be imteresting to see if Malonzo will be getting the same in Ginebra.
 
Would really love to see how Top tier teams of PBA would pan out against Bay Area.
 
What a shootout! Powell with 37 and Bolick with 33 points.

We need Bolick back in Gilas..

Excited to see a Powell- Williams and Powell-Pringle (if healthy) match-up, too bad Paul Lee has regressed so much this season
 
i like how this guest team is increasing the level of competition in the league. Good to see NP play this hard.

NB: lol at balanza and his physical defense on powell

Chualay texting Calvin: "Boy, alam mo na..."

Myles Powell turned emotional the moment he sat inside the Mall of Asia Arena media room to attend the post-game press conference of Bay Area’s PBA Commissioner’s Cup encounter with NorthPort, Saturday night.

The 25-year-old covered his face with his jersey, though it did not conceal how much he was in his feelings after towing the Dragons to a 105-104 victory through a tough stepback triple from the left wing to beat the buzzer.

He was able to pull himself together in time for the presser, and later on, shared that the sacrifices and struggles were the reasons why he got in tears.

“Just thinking about everything I sacrificed,” Powell said, “the crisis that my family is going through with my brother being locked up.

“And my whole career, going from Seton Hall — I was in New Jersey — then being picked up by the Knicks, and then playing for Philly. This is really the first time that I’ve ever been away from home,” he furthered.

Powell couldn’t be blamed for feeling homesickness of sorts. Prior to signing with the Hong Kong ball club, the New Jersey native spent his career playing in places that are just mere hours away from where he lives.

He played high school ball in NJ and Connecticut, before taking his talents to Seton Hall for his college stint — a D1 school that’s in Jersey as well.

The 6-foot-2 guard’s pro career saw him suit up for the Westchester Knicks of the G-League, the Knicks’ affiliate in the developmental ranks, for a while before being signed up by the Philadelphia 76ers in the last NBA season.

So, wherever he went then, some of his family members and relatives were there to watch live. But it’s all different now as he’s thousands of miles away, and he gets to celebrate wins with his newfound brothers, like Saturdays.

He just hopes, though, that his dear brother, Noel, who’s currently serving time in prison, was able to see his wild game-winner.

“I’m celebrating with my brothers and my coaches. Just thinking about my brother, and I wish he was able to see that one,” said Powell. “But it’s a good feeling. We’re going to get back to work.”

Powell finished with 37 points in yet another rousing performance after dropping 41 in their debut last Wednesday. But just like the last time out, he deflected the credit to his fellow Dragons for allowing him to turn in such an outing.

“I wanna say I wouldn’t be able to do it without my teammates,” he said. “You guys keep hearing me say that, but the coaching staff, my teammates, they believe in me just as much as I believe in them.

“They’re making everything easy for me. I didn’t start the game off well, but you see in the end they still believed in me to give me the ball. We’re just going to keep doing what Coach says, and I’ll just keep playing my style of basketball.”

ROBERT Bolick showed he’s a true sport when he personally went out of his way and congratulated Myles Powell following the Bay Area Dragons’ thrilling 105-104 win over NorthPort Saturday in the PBA Commissioner’s Cup.

Bolick entered the Willie Caballes Hall inside the Mall of Asia Arena while the post-game presser was ongoing and extended his hand to Powell, who drained the clutch three that allowed the guest team to escape away with its second win in a row.

Powell and Bolick happen to be both Under Armour athletes and often talk to each over social media.

“He’s (Bolick) a good guy and he had a great game as well,” said the 25-year-old former Philadelphia 76ers. “Real recognizes real, so pops up to him as well.”

Powell and Bolick both clicked from the floor and engaged each other in a shootout.
The 6-foot-2 import finished with 37 points and six rebounds. He shot 8-of-15 from three-point range including the game-winner at the buzzer which he converted despite being challenge by the outstretched arm of towering NorthPort import Prince Ibeh.

Bolick meanwhile, had a team-high 33 points, three rebounds, and five assists in the Batang Pier’s first loss after winning their debut game against Phoenix, 92-89.

Bay Area coach Brian Goorjian commended Bolick’s gesture, saying it shows how two warriors admired each other following a tightly fought battle.

“There is respect. There is war and sometimes it gets emotional,” said the coach of the Australian national team. “I think both ways. In all of this, there’s respect.”
