Beermen begin hunt for fourth PH Cup crown

By: Inquirer.net March 22,2018 - 09:51 PM

SAN MIGUEL Beer enters yet another PBA Philippine Cup title series starting today to try and put a lock on the distinction of being the best all-Filipino team of all time.

The Beermen have beaten the best teams in their run of titles in the last three seasons, and with Magnolia showing that it is one of the best sides this year, the Hotshots are the ones standing in the way towards San Miguel’s stab at an unprecedented place in history.

No team has even won this conference four straight years, and with the Beermen healthy and driven to perform, they are – as in the last three years – installed as the solid bets in this best-of-seven series that starts at 7 p.m. at the Smart Araneta Coliseum on Friday.

“We’re used to the pressure, the players are used to the pressure,” San Miguel’s Leo Austria said when asked if gunning for that piece of league history would add weight on the shoulders of the Beermen.

Magnolia is back in a title series for the first time since its Grand Slam in 2014. It will come into Game 1 off just two days’ rest.
