Now that it has achieved its mission of winning the PBA’s crowned jewel, Barangay Ginebra San Miguel is bracing for a massive challenge against all comers as it turns from hunter to hunted in 2021.
Ginebra became the new kingpin of the PBA Philippine Cup Wednesday after finishing off TNT, 82-78, in Game 5 of their title series inside the bubble at Angeles University Foundation Sports and Cultural Center, lifting the only trophy contested in the shortened 45th season.
Coach Tim Cone has a special feeling about taking the “bubble championship” which was held despite the COVID-19 pandemic while acknowledging that the defense of the PBA’s most important tournament could be tougher should the 46th running of the pro league gets rolling in April.
