Hooray for the Heat, as they were able to fetch their second win out of the three games of the finals. Though the game was played at Dallas homecourt that did not stop them to take the lead. Now they are on a 2-1 standing in favor of the Miami Heat. The big three have shown all their might in order for them to win this game.

Despite having two points advantage on the final score a win is still a win. At this point in time a lot of expectators are now anticipating for Miami to win the title for the conference. Well, let’s see on Game four if Heat would be able keeping ahead of the Mavericks.

Mavericks Vs. Heat – Game 2

Many sports enthusiasts are now all eyes to the NBA finals. Dallas Mavericks and Miami Heat are the teams competing for the championship.

As of this writing, game two has just finished giving Dallas the chance to get even with Miami. They are now on 1:1 standings.

I thought Heat would move ahead as there was an instance when they had a 10points edge during the last quarter until Dallas took a 3point lead on the last 26secs. Consequently, Heat was able to recover the points few seconds after when Chalmers did the three point shot through an assist executed by Lebron James.

Unfortunately, on the last paart Nowitzki of Dallas layed up for two points with 3.6seconds time remaining and that made them win the game.

Tropang Texters Made It

I didn’t have enough of enthusiasm to watch the game 6 of the pba yesterday as I thought it will be extended to game 7. I was just trying to peep on the television from time to time and when I saw that the barangay’s score far ahead than the texters I just decided to fix my clothes on my bed.

I was just asking Boss through text messaging to become somehow updated of the scores. I once asked him and he told me that the texters’ balloons already fell which means that they already won the game. I ran immediately to the tv and shifted its channel to see the situation, there I saw the scores at 88-86  in favor of the barangay. With few seconds left the texters was able to shoot the ball for overtime – Alapag did it in his lay up.

The game has become exciting but since I was not able to see how it started, I just became contented on waiting for the result. After the five minutes extension, the scores stopped at 99-96 with the scores led by the texters. And so that’s it. The Commissioner’s Cup Champion Title went to Talk & Text. And the Final’s best player awards were given to Jimmy Alapag and Jason Castro.

Congratulations to the Tropang Texters! You deserve to win. Nice Game for Barangay Ginebra, you really made it hard for them to get the title.

Game 5 – Do or Die for the Barangay

Philippine Basketball Association Commissioner’s Cup 2010-2011 is now on its Finals. Having Talk & Text and Ginebra as opponents,  they are now on their fifth game on the best of  seven with a standing of 3-1 in favor of the tropang texters.

This is gonna be a do or die game for the barangay. They ought to give their best if they still want the finals of the PBA 36th season extended up to game 7.

Basically looking at the line-up of players, Tropang Texters is really on the advantage but the barangay just got the best import of the conference. I guess the latter must fully utilize Nate Brumfield in order to at least move a little ahead.

Looking at the gaps on the scoring, there were distant differences on the figures on two out of the three games won by Talk & Text.
