I feel so happy tonight! After 6 attempts, Barangay Ginebra got their first win! Ang babaw ko talaga! With their 3rd import in tow, the Gins lorded over Purefoods TJ Hotdogs. With Mark Caguiaoa’s heroics at crunch time, the Kings pulled it off, 102-99. Caguioa was responsible for the last 6 points made by the team in the last 2 minutes of play surviving what could have been another defeat.Caguioa’s efforts paid off as well as the new import’, Chris Alexander. The 7 foot 1 center was a workhorse on both ends of the court. He debuted with 18 points, season-high 27 rebounds and 6 blocks.
My heart has been bleeding for 5 games and this time around, I was practically shouting and jumping with glee, haha!
JJ Helterbrand’s efforts is also commendable. He finished with 24 points.

Ginebra die hard fanatic din ako ! As young as 6, my father and I went to a gym in Makati to watch a Ginebra practice. There I saw Jawo, the Loyzaga brothers, Billy Ray Bates, Leo Isaac and the rest of them playing in that era (tanda ko na pala talaga!) lol. nweiz, I was a very timid girl, but my father wanted me to get their autographs, and was kinda getting upset at me because I didn’t want to. it took me three cans of coke to finally gain the confidence to approach those big men and obtain their signatures ^^ sad to say those autographs are now gone
the last time i remember it was laminated at the back of one of my elementary books.
nweiz, i still have one precious autograph i keep and carry all the time. guess who, sis? Mark Caguioa’s! oh my gosh, i was so struck when I saw him at Glorietta that i even hyperventilated. hahahaha!
i miss watching PBA.
