The Meralco Bolts will play the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters in Game 2 of their PBA 2015 Commissioner’s Cup Semifinals series. This is a big match up and will determine who will progress to the PBA 2014 Championship Game against either the Purefoods Star Hotshots or the Talk ‘N Text Tropang Texters.
Today’s big game will start at 5:00 p.m. PST and can be watched on TV on the TV5 network or online through free live stream (details below).
The Elasto Painters come into this game with a 1-0 lead having overpowered the Bolts in Game 1. If they can win today they would take a very valuable 2-0 lead before the series moves on to Game 3 on Tuesday night.
Fans will be eager to see how the Bolts will respond to their Game 1 loss today. They are going for a first Finals appearance this year, but to get through to the championship game they will need to navigate their way past the No. 1 seeded team – the Elasto Painters.
They are finally living up to their No. 1 seeding, and if they can maintain their good performance today then they will be able to reach Game 3 hoping to pile on the pressure to the Bolts by claiming a third straight semifinals win.
They will be looking to Wayne Chism once again today to do the job. He paced the team with 18 points.
The 13 point win margin (99-86) could in a large part be put down to the free throw disparity between the teams. The Painters were 29-of-36 at the line whereas the Heat went just 18-of-20.
The Rain or Shine Elasto Painters must maintain their aggressive nature today, move the ball fast and keep pressuring the Bolts.
The Meralco Bolts will play the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters in Game 2 of their 2015 PBA Commissioner’s Cup Semifinals series from 5:00 p.m. PST. The game can be watched on TV on the TV5 network or online through free live stream by clicking here.
