The San Miguel Beermen tied the 2025 PBA Philippine Cup finals at 1-1 by winning Game 2 against the TNT Tropang 5G with a score of 98-92.
In Game 1, San Miguel learned that their physical play in the paint was key to their success. They continued this strategy in Game 2, utilizing Chris Ross, CJ Perez, June Mar Fajardo, and Mo Tautuaa to dominate inside.
San Miguel's focus on post play disrupted TNT's defense, leading to high-percentage shots and a significant advantage in points in the paint and second-chance points.
Players like Jeron Teng and Don Trollano capitalized on the attention drawn by San Miguel's big men, contributing effectively on offense. Defensively, the team prioritized protecting Fajardo and Tautuaa, with Chris Ross leading the effort.
Despite a strong performance from Calvin Oftana, TNT struggled with turnovers and poor three-point shooting. RR Pogoy's low scoring output added to their challenges.
TNT faces concerns over Poy Erram's injury and will need to regroup to match San Miguel's physicality in the upcoming games.
