1. Prior to game one, JC Intal being interviewed by my favorite “analyst” Barry Pascua… Barry asks, “what adjustments have you made to prepare for this finals?” Intal will say, “Sino Kalaban? La Salle?” It will not end there folks, Barry will say his famous line, “YUN NA NGA EH!”
2. Jayjay Helterbrand will dribble the ball 67% of the time Ginebra has it.
3. Leo Isaac will secretly cheer for Ginebra. He thinks, it’s 1988.
4. In game 3, with Air 21 down in the fourth quarter and Gary David only able to choke, err, chalk up 4 points and contemplating on an incoming loss, he will ask, “WHO THE HELL GAVE ME, MR. PURE ENERGY MONICKER.” That’s just friggin un-creative. He’ll suggest, try “Mr. Hataw Na!” Try “Shout For Points.” Try “Take Me Out Of The Bench.”
5. Broadcasters/game analysts will say this 234 times (79 times from Quinito Henson alone, my church mate btw @ Tierra Nueva), Paul Artadi brings hustle and energy.
6. To which, Jason nodding, he’ll say, so therefore Paul Artadi has future in the play-by-play tv job. Turns out, pre-requisite for a TV anchor job today is be a PBA energy guy, intangibles guy and someday you’ll earn megabucks doing TV games. Ask Reyes, Richard Del Rosario, Jason Webb and Peter Martin. ( I like Jason Webb and Richard Del Rosario btw. Reyes, dunno, he’s not given a chance to do games. Peter Martin, he’s better managing SMC teams.)
7. Bo Perasol will again cry after winning game 4. He’ll even cry louder once he’s been informed, they are down 1-3.
8. Finally, before game 5 tip-off, Robert Jaworski will say his allegiance, Air or Gin? To date, his choice is still unknown nor his senate accomplishments (if any).
9. During the halftime of game 6 (Gins leading 4-1), Ginebra up by 30 points, looking to close out the Express, Ed Picson will fart while doing the halftime analysis, as he can no longer contain his emotions. He’s one heck of die-hard Ginebra fan.
10. KG Caneleta, with Air21 down by 20 points, 4th quarter of game 6, will shout, “Slam Dunk Na Lang!”
11. During he crowning of Ginebra, floor anchor Jason Webb will interview Ginebra Team Manager, Allan Caidic will go to the podium. Jason says, “Samboy is the team captain.” Caidic shakes head, saying, he’s now lost as to what his role is in the SMC teams nowadays.
12. After winning the Championship, american import Chris Alexander will proclaim, he is the best player in the world. That’s the trend. Look up Paul Pierce claim.
A real preview of the finals here.
See you at the Dome.
