TNT wins the PBA Philippine Cup plus a brand new car

If winning the finals was a great reward for TNT, their players and head coach was rewarded with a 1 month bonus and a brand new Toyota Vios each. Coach Chot Reyes said the car same as a pleasant surprise, but nothing was sweeter than winning the championship over SMB.

The win was a great start for TNT which had won no championship last year. Reyes has already won 6 titles in the PBA. TNT will be a force to reckon with in years to come, and come to think of it, I think they hold the rights to Japeth Aguilar? and if ever Aguilar will come back to the PBA, TNT will be a much stronger team.

Talk and Text is the Champion for this years PBA Philippine Cup

Watching the game you can feel that the TNT would surely win it, the way they played last night you can just see, they were the more determined team, they were hungrier, their execution was great and above all they are just full of energy.

The Talk and Text won 4-2 with a 95-82 game 6 win. To be the new Philippine Cup. Ryan Reyes and Jimmy Alapag lead the way for TNT with 17 and 15 points respectively. Jay Washington top score for the Beermen with 29 points.

At the start of the finals everyone was saying both teams are equals, with both of them having all star lineups and deep bench. But the way I see it, TNT was of a clear advantage from the start, yes both of them have star studded line up but TNT lineup was more athletic and much more younger than SMB. But for now Congratulations to TNT for a job well done.

PBA will take a short break and will resume on Feb 18 with teams parading imports with 6'4" in height.
