Yukien firing blanks today. Letran on the verge of a win in two years against San Beda.

Yukien firing blanks today. Letran on the verge of a win in two years against San Beda.

Good thing cuajao and javillonar proceeded to airball their 3's as well.

[gospursgo]

Thats it for beda tooday. Surprised to see payosing take that bail out 3.

[Jowax08]

why set play for Yukien when he is off?! 0/8 from 3s.
coach Yuri could have set a low post play for Bismarck or drive for Payo

[Leidenfrost]

Costly turn overs and missed ft. Really can't complain much. yukien missed all the 3 pointer that he took. If he made at least 1 we win. haha. Beda lost momentum when sajonia entered the game. i think that was 2 or 3 consecutive turn overs for him right?

This is a stretch and you know it. This team wouldnt be a 13 win team if what you said was true. In fact i only see you posting about csb whenever they lose lmao. Just one of those days that whatever good they did in the 1st half, wasnt enough to finish the game.

All 3 of csb's losses were games they couldve easily won, instead all losses were 6 pts combined. So in that sense you're right, its a mental thing, it shouldnt blanket what csb has done all season. While all of mapua's losses have been 7 pts or more, two have been blowouts. If you even watch closely that escamis 3 couldve been a travel but its fine. It is what is.

btw everyone knew that letran were the favorites in season 98 only reason benilde finished 1st is because letran decided to drop that last game and face lpu which was the 3rd see. Even in the finals, odds were in favor to letran.

This season, Mapua have a number of games won in th end game or by escape by a 3-pointer. Going to Final 4, this experience can be an impression of either:

- pure luck/“chamba” lang
or,
- Mapua is a dangerous team in close games

He trust his players to make those kinds of shots. Knowing Yukien, he will bounce back next game. It's frustrating when they miss but satisfying if they make it.

The way i see it, mapua has that winning mentality, wether they lead or not, close game or rout, headed by mvp clint escamis, but when they lose, they lose bad. Usually something was off with the team and you dont see that often. Comoared to benilde who's losses are from their own doing. Still pretty dangerous to anyone. Imo mapua is the biggest hurdle to benilde's championship aspiration.

Letran still half game behind lpu and eac. Beda vs Csb will be nice. Beda needs to win next game to regain their confidence entering final 4. Rooting for beda next game for mapua to be the top seed. For the number 4 seed, Eac vs Lpu next game will be crucial. What are the remaining games for Lpu, Eac and Letran? Ncaa season 100 is unpredictable and very exciting! Unlike Uaap which from the start of the season we already knew it would be Dlsu vs Up in the finals.

LPU: EAC, CSB 8-8
EAC: LPU, JRU 8-8
CSJL: AU 8-9

Letran basically cant lose. Imo eac v lpu, lpu has more on the line considering they still have benilde. In my final 4 forecast i have eac going in, but wont be disappointed if lpu gets the spot.

That was in the second quarter when Sajonia turned the ball over twice. But he was subbed out immediately and never came back. Obviously Sajonia is not 100%. But SBU managed to comeback in the 4th and take a one-point lead thru Payosing’s and-1.

RC Calimag is a disappointment. You can see it clearly he deviates from the system to take his own shot. Does not give out an extra pass even when he can see his closest teammate wide open.

i just remember nygel's back to back offensive foul too. thats what yuri get for trusting his players too much.

i just hope we get to see more of bonzi.

Mapua and benilde has secured the twice to beat with that san beda loss. All about seeding now for the 2. San beda should be locked in that 3rd seed as well even with the loss assuming they win atleast 1 more game. 4th seed is still a toss up, mathematically even arellano still has a chance but i dont see them winning more than a game between eac and letran.

It looks like a CSB vs MU in the finals. San Beda, this year, just doesn’t have what it takes to repeat. The feat they accomplished
last year, is possibly doable (very slim). But against either CSB or
MU, that will really be a tough task. Remember also that at the same time last year, the Red Lions gained momentum going in the F4 (with a huge beating of LPU).

The biggest issues really this year are team chemistry and lack of leadership. We know Yuki is trying but he is still falling short
