MANILA, Philippines -- Barangay Ginebra's triumph in the PBA bubble in Clark, Pampanga caps a fruitful stretch for Tim Cone, who continues to count his blessings even as the country and the world grapple with various problems including the COVID-19 pandemic.
When reminded of these achievements, Cone said that they seem "so far away" -- an understandable sentiment considering what has happened since."It just seems so far away, the Southeast Asian Games, and the last conference, where we beat Meralco," he added. "But those were special times." Cone's Gin Kings were among the favorites to win the 2020 PBA Philippine Cup, but they had to wait for several months before fulfilling the projections of analysts, as the league's 45th season was halted by the global health crisis.
Cone, who has now won five PBA titles with Barangay Ginebra and 23 in all, says the successive achievements are among the highlights in a career full of them. But his most recent title is a unique one -- the season took place in a "bubble" in Clark, Pampanga, and there were no fans to celebrate with them when the final buzzer sounded on their 82-78 victory in Game 5.
