Rooting for San Miguel (Ok, it's called Magnolia) is tough these days, as many observers have pointed out it is a team that is (very) rich in talent but can't seem to find that character that will define them... Caught 3 of the 4 games this semifinals series and it is sheer talent that is carrying San Miguel; then again, talent alone won't win you championships and i don't see that happening this conference.
Unless...
San Miguel goes back to their previous strength and that is STOPPING people. Stopping Air 21 is indeed a difficult task since they are primarily an offensive team which maximizes their strength. They have an import in Thomas who knows to do just that and they have a slew of versatile players that gets the job done. Credit to the likes of David, Santos and even Se who have used their brute and speed to take advantage of the oft-times lazy and half-hearted efforts on the defensive end. So i repeat, unless they become more of an intentionally defensive team this next two-three games i just don't see the sister teams slugging it out for the crown.
Some notes:
+ Sad to see Danny Seigle being used sparingly. i just want his ass to be traded so that it lights a fire under his errr, ass and he plays motivated and he once again plays like a superstar. Injury or not , it's always sad to see "what could have been" players sitting out at the end of their careers. Not too sure if Siot inserted DS in the lineup last Sunday to up his trade value because it is obvious that SMB has already enough offensive weapons.
So we will see on Wednesday (and Friday and Sunday) if MY team proves my forecast wrong. That's always been the case when you really don't have a confidence in your team. The worst-case scenario reverse jinxing person might just change the fate.
