Battle of leaders as Talk ‘N Text, Rain or Shine collide in Victorias City



AKTV/Paul Ryan Tan
The top two teams in the tournament face off on Saturday in Victorias City, Negros Occidental on Saturday when Talk ‘N Text takes on Rain or Shine as the 2013 Philippine Cup resumes.
Tipoff is set at 6:30 p.m.
Both teams are coming off thrilling victories in their previous assignments last Wednesday. The Tropang Texters survived a tough challenge from Barako Bull, 79-76, while the Elasto Painters pulled off a big rally over San Mig Coffee, 80-79.
New Talk ‘N Text coach Norman Black said he has been happy with his team’s effort on defense, but added that the Tropang Texters offense is still a work in progress.
“Defensively, this is how the way I wanted it,” said Black on the new defensive system he implemented on the squad. “Offensively, we’re still trying to work on our communication.”
Talk ‘N Text remains the only undefeated team after five games in the Philippine Cup, but a loss would put them in a tie with Rain or Shine, which carries a 4-1 win-loss record heading into the game.
Elasto Painters coach Yeng Guiao admitted that their victory over the Mixers was “ugly” but he’d take it.
“This win is beyond analysis and assessment, but this will rank as one of my weirdest wins ever,” said Guiao.
