TNT only need one quarter to beat the NLEX. 28-14 in the 4th in favor of the TNT, that's too much to give up.
Bollick is still good for NLEX but it was really Oftana who had a great night with 37 points, probably his season high. What kind of defense NLEX put into him? He couldn't score this much if they put good defense on him, and NLEX might be able to continue their win streak, but TNT is really good in clutch times as their experience had made them to be more competitive when its needed the most.
There's a chance NLEX would tie the game but the last shot attempt of Bollick wasn't properly set up, he was a bit out balance as he was bothered by the defense of Khobuntin and miss it.
Yup, Oftana got a great game seems that NLEX did not put that pressure too well and with a good touch and knowing how deadly this rising star is, you can't just ignore him and not to do a double when he's getting his rhythm, though like what you have said Bollick is really doing his best but not enough to snatch the game away from TNT.
Defense anticipate that Bollick will take it and good position and anticipation for Khonuntin as he manage to bothered that last attempt from Bollick.
