The Final Four

Now that the dust is starting to settle and we're moving on to the final stages of the Commissioner's Cup, fans have been gifted with box-office worthy, best-of-five match-ups, in Talk N Text-Air21 and Ginebra-Smart Gilas.

In the TNT-Air21 series, you'll have the Philippine Cup champions doing battle with a rejuvenated and driven Air21 squad led by who I believe is the best, scoring import of the lot and some grade A championship-caliber players. With Ginebra-SG, you'll have the crowd darlings going up against a young team that is slowly trying to build its own identity and is also winning over fans left and right with its style of play (which should be the case since they are the national team).
