MANILA, Philippines — Aminado si TNT Tropang Giga import Rondae Hollis-Jefferson na hirap na hirap siyang umiskor kapag kalaban ang Rain or Shine.

Pinatotohanan ito ng dating NBA player sa 4-1 pagsibak ng Tropang Giga sa Elasto Painters sa kanilang best-of-seven semifinals series sa Season 49 PBA Commissioner’ Cup.

“They made me work for everything. Every time we match up against them, it’s a challenge,” ani Hollis-Jefferson sa pagdedepensa sa kanya nina Rain or Shine guard Jhonard Clarito, Gabe Norwood, Caelan Tiongson, Keith Datu at import Deon Thompson.

“They play extremely well. They’re talented. Their coach (Yeng Guiao) said it. They have depth. They can go to their bench,” dagdag ni RHJ.

Sa kabila ng pagiging pisikal ng Elasto Painters ay nanatiling kalmado si Hollis-Jefferson at ang Tropang Giga sa kabuuan ng kanilang semis showdown.

“We just got to stay calm. Stay calm. We all believed in each other. Coach Chot (Reyes) believed in us.And the rest was history,” wika ng two--time PBA Best Import.

Swak ang TNT sa kanilang pang-24 finals appearance at target ang pang-11 korona.

Muli nilang makakatapat ang karibal na Barangay Ginebra sa best-of-seven championship series matapos itiklop sa 4-1 ang kanilang semis wars ng NorthPort.

Tinalo ng tropa ni Reyes ang mga bataan ni mentor Tim Cone sa nakaraang PBA Governors Cup Finals, 4-2.

Maglalaro ang Gin Kings sa kanilang ika-32 finals stint at asam ang pang-16 korona.

Nakatakda ang Game One ng PBA Finals sa Biyernes sa MOA Arena sa Pasay City.
