NLEX and Asi Taulave Rocked The Elite for the win!

Thornton the import of NLEX did what he was intended to do, which is to get buckets.

Thornton had a good night against Blackwater Elite but the real story here is the dominance of the 43 years old Asi Taulava, who found another scoring surge against the Elite.  It is truly amazing how the Rock continues to surprise and maintain his high-level game. I will not be surprised if he will be chosen again as a part of the national team.  

The scores:
NLEX 88 -- Taulava 22, Thornton 22, Anthony 15, Alas 10, J Villanueva 7, E Villanueva 4, Khobuntin 3, Lanete 3, Enciso 2. Borboran 0.

Blackwater 75 -- Dela Cruz 16, Rhett 14, Cervantes 11, Gamalinda 8, Cortez 7, Pascual 7, Lastimosa 6, Erram 4, Sena 2, Bulawan 0, Golla 0, Reyes 0, Tiongson 0.

Quarters: 18-12; 42-32; 66-60; 88-75
