A prolific import, a returning center and a new guard recruit gave Talk n Text a big lift as it kept its mastery of Coca-Cola, making it three in a row in their head-on duels in the 2006-07 PBA season with a 102-87 victory last night at the Araneta Coliseum. 


Import James Sullinger came through with a huge double-double performance with 35 points and 12 rebounds and the comebacking Don Allado and new acquisition Egay Billones provided solid backup jobs carrying the Pals into the win-column in the season-ending Fiesta Cup.
