Long bombs key to Tropa success
TNT Tropang Giga aims to leverage their potent three-point shooting, a key factor in their previous championship victory, against Barangay Ginebra in the upcoming Commissioner's Cup finals.
During their last PBA Governors' Cup finals series in November, TNT dominated long-range shooting, averaging 11 three-pointers per game at a 39.6% success rate, which contributed significantly to their 4-2 series win.
The Tropang Giga consistently outscored the Gin Kings from beyond the arc in every game of their previous finals matchup.
While TNT's three-point shooting was slightly lower in their recent semifinal series against Rain or Shine at 32.82%, they aim to regain their championship form against Ginebra.
Barangay Ginebra, on the other hand, showed improved long-range accuracy in their semifinal series against NorthPort, shooting 43.17% from the three-point line, and hopes to carry this momentum into the finals.
