Click agad ang tandem nina Sedrick Barefield at bagong reinforcement Robert Upshaw sa unang laro nila sa Blackwater para sikwatin ang unang panalo ng Bossing sa pangatlong laro sa PBA 50 Commissioner’s Cup elims.
Sa 1-2 punch ng dalawa ay kinubra ng team ang 97-91 win laban sa Magnolia sa Ynares Center-Antipolo noong Linggo ng gabi (March 22).
Si Upshaw ang replacement import kay injured Daniel Ochefu.
Loob at labas ang inilaro ng 7-footer, pinagdiinan ang 250-lb frame para umiskor sa paint. Pinasilip din niya ang epektibong shooting mula long, long distance, naka-tatlong 4-pointers huli nang iagwat ang Bossing 91-84 sa final minute.
“He was huge,” papuri ni Barefield sa kanyang bagong partner. “You can see the presence he had down low, the rebounds. He hit a big 4 down the stretch.”
Maraming pinapogi si Upshaw na teamamtes, una na si Barefield na naka-anim na 3s tungo sa 26 points – 22 dito sa second half nang balasahin ang Hotshots, na-outscore 30-19 sa fourth quarter.
Tumapos si Upshaw ng 35 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 blocks.
Ayon kay coach Jeffrey Cariaso, ganu’ng intensidad ang hinahanap nila sa isang import – maaasahan, naglalaro buong 48 minutes.
“That really goes to taking over down the stretch,” wika ni Cariaso.
At si Barefield na 1 of 4 lang sa first two quarters bago ipinasok ang 7 sa kanyang final 12 shots.
“We were missing local support, especially down the stretch, and today Sedrick took care of that,” lahad ni coach Jeff. “He was aggressive, he felt good. As much as it was difficult to find a way to stop (Jerom) Lastimosa and their import (Nuni Omot) when their bigs are setting screens, it was actually the same for them.” (Vladi Eduarte)
