Roof Shield, Power Floor Win in Davies Cup

Roof Shield and Power Floor/UAP Cebu-Sugbu registered contrasting wins Sunday as they opened up their respective bids in the Davies Cup 2008 basketball tournament at the Metro Sports Center Sunday.

Roof Shield blew hot and cold, and had to wait for a missed free throw with no time left on the clock to score a nerve-wracking 54-53 win over Classitex. On the other hand, Power Floor didn’t have much to worry about as they crushed Da Vinci, 91-41 to score the most lopsided win among the debuting teams in the tournament.

Roof Shield was on its way to a win as it used a big fourth quarter run and take as much as a seven point lead midway through the payoff period. But Classitex never gave up, chipping away at the lead slowly but surely until tying the score at 52-all with 1:30 left in the game. Jonas Gesulga replied with two free throws to give Roof Shield a 54-52 lead with 13 seconds left. Classitex turned the ball over on the next possession but got the ball back when Gesulga fired an ill-advised triple. After a missed attempt by Classitex, Villamor was fouled while battling for the rebound no time left and Roof Shield in the penalty situation. Needing to make both to send the game into overtime, he missed the first, sending the Roof Shield bench into celebration.

Efren Bauga may have been the smallest player on the floor but he shone the brightest with his all-around game, leading Roof Shield with 22 points. Villamor led Classitex with 22 as well.

It was the other way around in the other game as Power Floor/UAP Cebu-Sugbu didn’t put any doubts as regards the game’s outcome, storming into a 28-13 lead at the end of the first quarter and a commanding 56-21 lead at the half.

Criz Matunog led all scorers with a game-high 21 points while Janiry Agun paced Da Vinci with 14.

Milo BEST: All Basics The Basketball Efficiency Scientific Training (BEST) Center has been around for 31 years, and it has been at the forefront of doing the most basic of basketball teaching: sticking to the basics. This is the primary content of the Milo-sponsored BEST Center basketball clinics that have become an institution in Philippine basketball. “We teach the fundamentals, lahat ng klaseng fundamentals ng basketball — that’s our philosophy, dahil sabi nila, basketball is just a series of fundamentals,” said Nic, who was inspired to bring the concept of basketball clinics to the Philippines 31 years ago when budding players at that time had no formal training in the sport.
