6 Points: AdMU vs. UP

Ateneo 78, UP 53

-Again, a Twitterrific view in the middle of work, thanks to a few updates.
-This might not be a good game to watch for the nation's scholars. It is good that the Eagles today assured us of a win.
-Magi Sison still in his seemingly nonexistent presence in the court. Plus, there is this stupid decision by UP to put an injured Woody Co in when facing a 23-point deficit.
-This game proves that the third string can do something. I hope we see more of Tiongson, Balmaceda, and, wait for it, Jeric Estrada.
-Sloppy first quarter performances should not be a trend. UP might have fought well, but when Ateneo pumps it up, there's no one who can slow down their momentum on both ends.
-It's still too early to say that Ateneo returned shooting well from beyond the arc. Let's see if we can jack up well-placed threes in our later games.
