The race for the last two semifinal seat is on. First knockout game will feature Magnolia vs Mindanao Cargo Forwarders (MCF), with the winner advancing to the semifinal phase vs Western Feedmill. Western Feedmill will have the twice-to-beat advantage by virtue of its second place finished at the end of the elimination round. Magnolia is favored to repeat its conquest of MCF which it defeated in the elimination round, 83-68. Magnolia will rely on its main man, Bong "sweet papi" Papelera while MCF will anchor its hope on, Robert John "junjun" Rulona.
In the second game, DFFC and SMFI Live operations will try to knock each other out. DFFC prevailed over SMFI-Live in the elimination round, 77-71, and is expected to repeat over the hardfighting SMFI Live Ops bannered by Julius Ceasar "the emperor" Morandante. The ever reliable Allan Barbarona will carry the fight for DFFC. The winner will face SPDC, the defending champion and the top seed after the elimination round. The winner will have its hand full in defending SPDC's top gun, Joel Lanutan, and its dominant center, Jimbo Baba. By virtue of finishing the elimination round on top, SPDC will likewise enjoy a twice-to-beat advantage.
Expect a slambang affair this Sunday, a prelude to Manny Pacquiao vs Miguel Angel Cotto on November 14, 2009 (US time).
