The Tigers just lost a heartbreaker to go down 0-3 against the defending champions Talk N' Text. This loss was particularly painful because we really had a good chance to win it. But once again, TNT's championship poise prevailed and they are one win away from becoming back-to-back Philippine Cup champions.
I am going to make this post brief and short. I am really proud of how the players fought not only in this series but all throughout the playoffs. People are saying that Powerade's Cinderella run has neared its end, but on the contrary, a new era of Tigers basketball had just began. Two of our 3 best players are just rookies. Sean Anthony is just a sophomore. Gary David still has a few good years of basketball left. I am not at all insinuating that this series is over, but whatever happens, a new chapter has unfolded.
Leonidas and his 300 men did not back down a single inch against Xerxes and his army of 20,000. They lost the battle, but they made a stand against a seemingly insurmountable opponent.
MAKING A STAND. That is what this series is all about for Powerade. More than just winning or losing, it is all about the Tigers making a stand against the juggernauts. In this league, the team that could amass the most superstars win. The Tigers are trying to prove otherwise. Win or lose, the Tigers had made a statement.
Come game 4, I can only be extremely sure of one thing --- until that final buzzer sounds, the Tigers will keep on fighting. With nothing to lose, the Tigers are ready to give it all they've got.
Believe.
Roar out.
MAYBE SOME PEOPLE WILL JUST TURN THEIR BACKS OR LOOSE HOPE FOR YOU GUYS SINCE THE SERIES IS 3-0, WELL I'M NOT, I ALWAYS BELIEVE ON ALL OF YOU AND FOR WHAT YOU STAND FOR.... I REMEMBERED WHAT GARY SAID ONCE," ANDITO NA KAMI, DI NA NAMIN TO PALALAGPASIN!!!!".WELL, I REALLY HOPE THAT THE TEAM ARE READING THIS, THEY SAY THAT THE PUZZLE ARE SOLVE FOR THE TIGERS TO BE A BETTER TEAM BUT STILL, THERE LACKING SOMETHING IN THERE LAST 3 GAMES, SOMETHING THEY HAD BEFORE, SOMETHING THEY POSSESS WHY THEY ENABLE TO CAPTURE THE REINFORCED CONFERENCE CUP BEFORE... HEART!!!!! LOTS & LOTS & LOTS OF HEARTS!!!! THEY CAN'T WIN BY ONE, TWO OR THREE MEN , THEY MUST FIGHT AS A TEAM, FROM THE PLAYERS TO THE COACHES, THEY MUST WORK AS ONE, JUST LIKE A TIGER, WHO HUNT IN PACKS, THEY CAPTURE PREY USING THERE TEAMWORK, THAT'S WHAT THE POWERADE SHOULD DO, PLAY AS A TEAM, GO FOR THE WIN AND SHARE THE GLORY TO EACH OTHERS.... YOU'RE A STRONG TEAM, AND YOU BELIEVE ON THAT, THAT'S WHY YOU ARE IN THE FINALS.... OTHERS MAY INSULT YOU, HURT YOU, BRUISE YOU, FEEL YOU HOPPELESS BUT THEY CAN'T TAKE AWAY WHAT YOU BELIEVE, THEY CAN'T TAKE AWAY YOUR HEARTS.... YOU'VE DONE IMPOSSIBLE THING, AND YOU MAKE HISTORY, DON'T STOP NOW!!!!! SHOW TO ALL OF THEM YOUR HEART, WHAT IT TRULY DESIRE........ A HEART OF A CHAMPION, A HEART OF A WOUNDED TIGERS....
