PBA: TerraFirma better than its record, says Alaska coach Cariaso

2020 PBA Philippine Cup.

Alaska turned things around with a 34-point third quarter, and they proved to be the better team down the stretch. Veterans Vic Manuel and JVee Casio came up big on offense, and they weathered CJ Perez's attacks late in the game to hold on for a 99-96 win. The coach said their team acknowledged the TerraFirm was "due for a win" after dropping their first four games, often in blowout fashion. Cariaso had warned that the Dyip's 0-4 record was not representative of their capabilities, however.

The Dyip dropped to 0-5, making them the lone winless team in the league. But they can take some comfort in their most competitive game of the conference to date ahead of a date with Blackwater on Saturday.
