Ginebra ties series with TNT, sets up crucial Game 3

In Game 2 of the PBA Commissioner's Cup Finals on Sunday, Barangay Ginebra edged out TNT, tying the series at one game each.

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson attributed TNT's loss to poor shooting and praised Ginebra's strong defense, while coach Chot Reyes is expected to make adjustments for Game 3.

Ginebra head coach Tim Cone emphasized that despite their victory, there are areas for improvement on both ends of the floor, particularly on offense where Justin Brownlee scored 35 points.

Both teams are focusing heavily on defense as they prepare for a closely contested Game 3 set to tip off at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday at the PhilSports Arena in Pasig City.

Justin Brownlee noted that Ginebra's defensive effort will be crucial, and coach Cone sees Game 3 as the 'tone-setter' for the rest of the series.

Both teams are aware of their history and the importance of maintaining focus to secure a pivotal 2-1 lead in the best-of-seven contest.
