Ginebra extends its game winning streak to 3 as they defeated the Meralco Bolts 81-71 last night. After the game four(4) of Ginebra players scored in double figures Cortez (14), Tubid (13), Caguioa (13) and Villanueva (11). During the game Ginebra defense is very notable as they held down the Bolts to 27 points only on the first half and that is the key factor that help them win the game.
The Bolts despite being held down to 27 points on the first still managed to put some good scoring on the 2nd half. And doesn't permit the Gin Kings to pull away that easily and had only the Kings on a 2 point lead at 64-66. But that was the closest the Bolts can go after Ginebra pull away with Cortez, Villanueva, Caguioa, Tubid and Willy Wilson teamed up to a 13-2 run that gave the Kings a 79-66 lead with 1:46 left to play.
The scores:
GINEBRA 81- Cortez 14, Tubid 13, Caguioa 13, Villanueva 11, Canaleta 9, Wilson W. 6, Mamaril 6, Intal 5, Lbagala 4, Wilson J. 0, Menk 0.
