UAAP Season 77 - Unity in Excellence

[vinj]

I was rooting for UP too pero di ko alam kung maaawa o maiinis ako sa UP kanina nung inannounce na 1st runner up sila. Nagtinginan lang sila, expected nila na sila ang magcchampion. Fake smiles. Hey that's still a first runner up spot! They definitely won people's hearts though.

I agree here. The reaction of UP leaves a bad taste in the mouth. Where's the sportmanship, grace and class in that? Congrats to the winners (NU, UP and UST) I'm happy the most for the UST win runner-up finish.

As for FEU... sorry but they lost it. One of my basic takes when it comes to basketball is that a team who muffs their free throws don't deserve the win (and in most cases lose). This has been evident in a the Ateneo losses this season where they shot badly from the charity line and went on to lose the game by a margin attributable to the muffed free throws.

Yeah, I agree. I only got to watch parts of the replay of the CDC -- was actually ticked off by Boom and Jessie for some reason -- and the part I actually got was when they declared UP one of the winners (turns out it was 2nd place pala). Sablay yung reaction nila. Very unsportsmanlike. You can show disappointment, but iba yung sa kanila. Tsk tsk!

Also did not get to watch the ADMU-FEU game. Kahit yung DLSU-NU di rin, hehe! Until I realized it was already 8 past and I reviewed my Twitter feed. The title of the article was something like "ADMU's come back" or something. I thought it was referring to ADMU's resurgence this year (coming back from last year's showing). Di pala, literally, they came back due to an FEU collapse.

Agree with vinj, teams who can't shoot free throws don't deserve the win. Shooting freebies should be one of the basic skills teams practice. I wonder, though, how Andy Jao will decide on this. But, how is a commissioner supposed to decide on this? Replay? Default?

sabi kanina sa newsfeed ko sa FB may presscon si Andy Jao

tapos eto nakita ko ngayon sa FB ko thru ANC 24/7

#‎UAAP77‬ DLSU & FEU will have a playoff for the 2nd seed & the twice-to-beat advantage on Sunday, 4pm,at the MOA Arena | via *camillenaredo

may decision na ba?

The big difference in that game is Anton Montinola

Hmmm, assuming that FEU was leading by one and still missed all their free throws, then a different play would have been drawn up for Ateneo in the dying seconds.

Let us see where this protest goes.

Abangan ang drama!

GO ATENEO! OBF!

[baludoy]

pang-gulo talaga 'to si montinola.

rule # 4 pa lang na quoted sa letter nila wala na kaagad violation kasi iyong correction ng 2 point shot to a 3 pointer hindi pa naman tapos iyong 4th quarter.

The referee signalled a three but the scorer recorded a two.

Tama naman na kinorek yan.

Bakit kasi pinapayagan ng DLSU sumali sa naked truth ng mga kabaklaan si jeron while UAAP is in season? Kaka discharged lang as hospital then naked truth a before an important game.

Gusto ata mag showbiz yang si teng eh.....

[111prez]

Sa Victoria Court ang laro at hindi sa basketball court?

[shadow]

dinadamay kasi ni ben chan players sa mga kabaklaan niya eh.

Gusto ata mag showbiz yang si teng eh.....

Not necessarily showbiz, but the opportunity to earn big bucks. Some of these blue chip collegiate players are earning alot more than some pro players. (ie. endorsements, "allowances" (salary) from school).

[chua_riwap]

Pero sayang. Dapat sila ang may twice to beat adv.kung nanalo sila. (O talagang di nila kaya feu......)

Good luck na lang. Sana manalo sila at sana dlsu-admu sa finals.

[bloowolf]

Basta huwag Admu vs. FEU sa finals. Obvious na sino panalo.....

[IMm29]

Sad to say, but FEU appears to have DLSU's number this year. Baliktad naman kumpara sa 2013.

I certainly hope this stinging loss give them the motivation needed to win 2 straight vs. FEU, or they can just kiss their championship defense hopes goodbye.

And WTF was that confrontation about?!
