Ginebra punches finals ticket with rout of Magnolia (ABS-CBN News)

Ginebra is headed to the Finals of the 2022 PBA Commissioner's Cup, after a comfortable 99-84 victory over rivals Magnolia in Game 4, Wednesday.

Magnolia got the lead down to 12 points, 82-70, with still 11 minutes to play but a Malonzo floater and a triple from Stanley Pringle restored order for the Gin Kings, 87-70. But Tenorio would have none of it, and the veteran guard knocked down back-to-back buckets that sparked an 11-0 run. Japeth Aguilar came off the bench and played his best game so far, with a conference-high 19 points on top of eight rebounds. "I'm just so thankful that we didn't have to play a Game 5 against this team. "We have to put all of our eggs in one basket, and that's really the expression, and we did. Ginebra got it done without big man Christian Standhardinger for the bulk of the contest.

UNLESS Magnolia and defending champion San Miguel do something about it in today's Game 4, it may well be Barangay Ginebra and Bay Area battling for PBA ...

“They beat us three times (before) — in the eliminations and the first two games of the finals — and the Game 3 win is an indication that Bay Area is beatable. Lee said the two-day break in-between the third and fourth matches should be enough to “recover and prepare.” The Hotshots are hoping to have Paul Lee back for this survival mission after playing only two minutes last time due to fever and headache. Armed with a 2-1 lead in the best-of-three series, the Gin Kings aim the killer blow at the embattled Hotshots at 3 p.m. We’ll try to go out and see what we can do in Game 4,” he added. Many things can happen in a Game 5.
