LA Tenorio declined to stay on Ginebra’s humiliating 27-point deficit from San Miguel in Game 1 of the 2017 PBA Philippine Cup Finals on Friday.
“We cannot change it. We just have to move forward and prepare for the game on Sunday,” Tenorio said after they lost to Ginebra.
Shooting 4-of-21 in the first quarter, Ginebra simply didn't have its luck, falling behind 17-2 to begin and even trailed by as much as 36, 85-49, in the third quarter.
“We came out flat and they were ready for us,” the veteran playmaker said.
But for Tenorio, who played just 15 minutes and finished with five points, a rebound, and a steal, the Gin Kings shouldn’t be disheartened with margin amid a seven-game series.
“A 30-point lead and a one-point lead is the same in a Finals series. Now, we move forward and prepare for Game 2. That’s it,” he said.
Tenorio trusts that Ginebra can still play well than what it did in Game 1, and he swore that Ginebra will come back on the game 2.
“Again, just have to forget this game and move forward into Game 2. We cannot bow our heads or cry. We just have to move forward and prepare as much as we can on Lucena. We’ll get back at them next game,” he said.
Game 2 is on Sunday at Quezon Convention Center in Lucena, Philippines.
Pinoy fans are so excited to witness the 2nd game.
