Chris Ross powered the massive third-quarter turnaround to help San Miguel beat Ginebra, 108-102, to force a win-or-go-home Game 5 in the PBA Season 50 Governors’ Cup quarterfinals, Friday at the SMART Araneta Coliseum.
The 41-year-old playmaker scattered 20 points, six rebounds, nine assists, and five steals, turning in a vintage performance to spark the fiery 22-0 rally to take the lead for good at 66-61 after being down by as many as 17.
And when the Kings fought back from 19 down and got to within three twice inside the final 2:15, the former BPC fittingly settled the final count with a split with 10.6 ticks left as the Beermen ultimately kept their season alive.
From down 0-2, the ‘Beeracle’ authors have tied the best-of-5 series at two games apiece and sent it to a fifth game on Tuesday in Antipolo.
