Let them know

Babysteps for Alab

Though we were not able to watch the ASEAN Basketball League debut of Ray Ray Parks (19p 4r 7a) and his Alab Pilipinas LIVE, there was simply no way in hell that we would miss it altogether. So, despite our busy schedule, we patiently waited for the delayed telecast to air (a big shout out to our Middle Eastern cable provider: OSN and our OSN Pinoy Package PLUS) so we could share our thoughts afterwards.

Now where should we begin?

Alab Pilipinas lost 66-71 to the visiting Singapore Slingers; despite the efforts of Parks, Lee Seung-Jun (13p 10r) and Jeric Fortuna (10p). The Slingers were led by imports Justin Howard (22p 20r) and Xavier Alexander (15p) and followed by ABL local MVP Wong Wei Long (17p) and Leon Kwek (11p 11r). It was a solid debut for Alab as they led by as many as 12 points in the first half before losing steam in the 2nd.

Okay, that’s the game in a nutshell. Now, we nitpick.
