COBRAS CRUSH QUACKIES 120-101

YMCA – A week after pulling down a crucial rebound, Cobra guard Carlos Chan was at it again this time burning the opposition with his hot shooting. Chan dropped ten 3 point bombs against the Quackies throughout the game with 9 of the coming in the 2nd half. It was extra special for Chan as he is celebrating his 26th birthday this coming Saturday. “Wala e… kahit anung gawin namin pasok talaga lahat ng tira niya… Nakabox 1 na nga kami pero wala talaga nakakawala pa din…” a visibly frustrated Dewey Uy said after the game.

“Maganda pinakita niya itong game na to… Dapat every week ganyan siya kasi important part ng game namin ang shooting niya.” Lim said. “He stretches out the defense and opens up the middle making it easier for the rest of us to operate and slash to the basket.” he added.

After the game a sleepy and tired GM/Forward Michael Cheng only had praises for his player “everyone on the court knew very well what he is capable of doing but we didn’t expect him to explode like that. It’s a very good sign for the team when a player starts to get his groove on the court. Pero kahit kaming mga kakampi niya nagulat sa pinakita niya.”

But it was no walk in the park for the Cobras. In fact it was a tight game in the 1st half wherein Chan struggled for only 3pts, shooting a miserable 1 out of 6 from the field, and Peewa Abrencillo, who finished with 12 pts, could not find the mark. Being short handed without the high leaping Jigger and guard Pot Pot.. Cheng was able to employ his inside outside game and big man/loud mouth Arnold Tsai was able to dominate inside the painted area. The former putting on his usual solid number with 23pts while the latter tallied a double-double performance pulling down 10 rebounds answering critics who have been constantly criticizing his defensive play. “Utos ng utos si maestro! E kung magulang ko nga e hindi ako mautusan! Henyo talaga ako! Wahahahaha!” the interview was cut short due to the worthless stuff that Tsai said.

Roger Chan, who in the previous game played a career low 20minutes, was interviewed after the game about why he was already playing so soon after the injury. “libre e…” he was quoted as saying. He played 40 minutes in this game which is right around his average.

Newcomer Berwin Meily paced the Quackies with 21 points.

NOTE: Chan’s 10 3pt conversions is the most by a Cobra player. The record for the most 3’s in a game, which is 15, is still held by Aji Ichiban Tanlo. The 37pts by Chan is also a season high for any player this year. RBK struggled from the free throw line for the 2nd straight game shooting 15 out of 25. GM Cheng participated in the fun run before the game and ended up shooting 1 air ball from the field and 1 air ball from the foul line. Lim dished out 9 assists failing to reach double figures in that department for the 2nd straight game. Chan’s post game celebration was held at Brazil Brazil at the fort wherein GM Cheng called Chan “vertically challenged”
