Russians pinabagsak ng Gilas Pilipinas

Pang-masa

TAIPEI – Ipinakita ng Gilas Pilipinas na hindi si­la matitinag maski sino ang humarap sa kanila.

Tinapatan ng Natio­nals ang pisikal na laro ng Spartak-Primorye ng Russia para iposte ang 85-71 at ilista ang kanilang ika­lawang panalo sa 2015 William Jones Cup kaha­pon dito sa Xinchuang Gym­nasium.

Muntik nang magkaroon ng 'free-for-all' sa pag­sisimula pa lamang ng first period nang bigyan ng hardfoul ni Aleksei Goliakhov si Gilas guard Terrence Romeo.

Nagkaroon naman ng sugat sa ulo si Sonny Thoss nang masiko ni Alim­dzhan Fediushin.

Limang tahi ang ki­nailangan para maisara ang naturang sugat sa ulo ni Thoss na hindi na ibina­lik sa laro ni coach Tab Baldwin.

“It’s a good expe­rience and good win for the team,” sabi ni Baldwin. “Had they backed down from them, they would have to confront me.”

Kinuha ng Nationals ang malaking 19-point lead, 84-65, sa fourth quar­ter para selyuhan ang ka­nilang panalo sa Russians.

Umiskor si Ranidel de Ocampo ng 13 points, ka­sama rito ang tatlong tres, habang may 11 markers si Romeo kasunod ang tig-10 nina Calvin Abueva, Matt Ganuelas at Moala Tau­tuaa.

“What I liked the most was that we played with our roles – the shooters getting their shots, the re­bounders getting the rebounds. From that standpoint, it’s a team win,” ani Baldwin.

GILAS PILIPINAS 85 - De Ocampo 13, Romeo 11, Abueva 10, Tautuaa 10, Ganuelas 10, Intal 8, Taulava 7, Rosario 6, Hontive­ros 6, Alapag 3, Thoss 1, Ra­mos 0.

Spartak 71 - Glazyrin 23, Goliakhov 12, Uzinskii 11, Savelev 10, Ferorkhov 5, Fediushin 5, Ivanov 4, Zve­rokv 1.

Quarterscores: 20-23; 43-40; 61-50; 85-71.
