Thunder zero in on PBA Invitational

With a slot in the All-Filipino Cup quarterfinals in the bag, the rampaging Red Bull Thunder now set their sights on an outright seat in the mid-season invitational tournament as they take on the Talk N Text Phone Pals at the Philsports Arena today.

Red Bull walloped Talk N Text in their first meeting on March 29 in Cebu but the Thunder expect the Phone Pals to come out strong in a bid to get even while playing under the guidance of coach Joel Banal and team consultant Bill Bayno. The American mentor arrived Wednesday to pitch camp for the Phone Pals from two to three weeks.
