Hobe 'di umubra sa Star

-

MANILA, Philippines - Gumawa ng malaking sorpresa ang Star Group of Publications makaraang tagpasin ang panana­lasa ng dating walang ta­long Hobe Bihon, 89-79 at pa­la­kasin ang kanilang kampan­ya para sa inaasam na outright semis berth sa 2010 MBL-Invitational basketball championship sa RTU gym sa Mandaluyong City kamakalawa ng gabi.

Nagsanib ng puwersa sina Jong Bondoc, Virgilio Roque, Dennis Rodriguez at Lester Reyes upang ibi­gay sa Rene Recto-men­tored Starmen ang matin­ding opensiba na siyang pu­migil sa ilang ulit na tang­kang pag-atake ng Hobe Bihon sa nine-team tournament na inorganisa ng Millennium Basketball League at suportado ng Smarts Communicaitons, Dickies Underwear at PRC Courier Services.

Kumana si Bondoc ng 19 puntos sa kabila ng ma­lagkit na depensang ini­latag sa kanya ng Hobe upang banderahan ang Starmen na isinara ang ka­nilang kampanya sa eli­mination round na taglay ang 5-3, win-loss slate sa likod ng Hobe (5-1) at defen­ding champion Wang’s Ballclub (5-2).

Nagdagdag naman si­na Roque, Rodriguez at Reyes ng 17, 16 at 15 pun­tos, ayon sa pagkakasunod sa larong pinanood mismo ng Star owner na si Miguel Belmonte at team manager Mike Maneze.
