It's -3.5 for San Miguel Beermen, not that high and very attractive if you are a fan of SMB but looking at the game right now it seems that whoever wins, will just have a lead of not more than 5 points because it's a close one not like in game 2 where SMB separated in the early minutes of the fourth quarter.

edit: first overtime game of the finals, what a close and exciting game for those who bet haha.

Lucky break, they really cover the spread because they dominated the TNT in overtime. I think the final score is already 108-100, there are a few seconds left but SMB will already get this win. congratulations backers, SMB win, and covers.

When Fajardo is playing like that, there's no way TNT can beat the SMB in this series.

They are now ahead by 1 win, the series is 2-1 now, so let's see if TNT will be able to even the series in game 4. Still will be missing coach Chot I believe, but they have to play like it's the last game as if they will go down 3-1, their chance to win the series will be very slim.

SMB did a great job on Mikey Williams, though he still can score, but it's very evident how the was very limited in the game. Game 4 is very crucial for them, they already lose twice in a row, they should not allow to make it 3. A big adjustment is necessary, their 3 point shooting should hit because they cannot live in the paint since JMF is a beast inside both office and defense.

SMB deserved that win, Fajardo was in a beast mode that's why he was unstoppable. If SMB loses because of the mistake committed by Herndon, I'm sure the blame will be put on him, he should pay attention in a very crucial game, because one mistake could lead to losing the game and the effort will be wasted.

Fajardo is a big pain in the ass, he still dominate and we have seen that from today game, a classic Abay who enjoying the game, though he's can't do it alone as basketball is a team effort, a good adjustment from coach Leo, what a game from Ross, Cruz and the man itself Herndon, he's a lucky pick from the bench, though I was in the impression that he will be the reason why SMB will lose the game after that technical for delaying the game, good thing that Cruz really extend his effort not to allow Castro for another heroic winning shot.

Over time brings enjoyment for SMB backer especially to those who give that -3.5 without OT you know

SMB is too deep for TNT. If not for that game-winning shot of Castro, it might be 3-0 now and that's really hard to win back. Congrats SMB!

Fajardo did a great plays in game 3, and SMB really work as a team that’s why they are able to sustain the momentum while TNT is still struggling. The gap in score is not that big, that means TNT can really compete with SMB it’s just that they are always fell short. Maybe the missing head coach of TNT affect their strategy plays, TNT is good but they also have to activate other players because their key players are being guarded. Game 4 will be an exciting one and it’s crucial for TNT to let SMB have the lead, that can be the end for TNT if ever.

27 points and 27 rebounds for Fajardo, how can you stop this big guy? They really did great job for this and almost dominating the game 3 but still kudos for TNT for giving a great fight as well.

Game 4 will be a big game for both teams, I think TNT are now more eager to win because if not they will be at risk on losing the chance to take another championship. Will still wait for the good odds before placing a bet, it’s actually hard to pick on where to bet.

I really don't mind and got surprised with his 27 points but for 27 rebounds, damn that was a spectacular big performance. It does mean that no one in the league right now that can dominate JuneMar Fajardo in terms of getting boards either on the offensive or defensive side. A considered GOAT in the PBA and future Hall of Famer, the Kraken is still making surprising good numbers even after his long hiatus in the league.

I agree with you that Kudos to TNT for always giving an intense game with the powerhouse SMB. But still, not until either of them gets a 4 win, the series is not finished yet. TNT should consider Game 4 as their Do-Or-Die game and feels the pressure to win.

Is that a shot at Choket?

Rebounding, post moves, perimeter shooting, and even some side steps The best counter is to outrun him during transitions or if he's outside the paint.

Exactly! If you're good at shooting and you have a reliable big man under, how could it not boost your confidence?

Gotta give credit to the hustles of other Beermen too. We know the team is missing the production of T. Romeo but Ross and the other guys are stepping up. You never know who is going to come up with big shots at crucial moments.
