LA Tenorio had an amazing performance against their win against Alaska in the quarter final round which sent Alaska on vacation after an outstanding 32 point performance but concluded their first semi final game against San Miguel Beermen scoreless.
"It's a five man game, you don't expect the same guy to carry the team every single game" said Tim Cone, after being asked on his reaction on Tenorio's scoreless game. "This is what I told johnny before and what I've been telling LA, LA cannot score a point and still be the most impactful player out there" Cone explains that LA focused on their defense and still can be a key player without point production.
" With his ability to defend, ability to handle the ball, push the ball and finding the right guy to get into our offense, He doesn't necessarily have to score for us to be good and I think that's what great point guards do."
The league's most successful coach said that LA Tenorio is one the key players in the team and will be able to have another great game ahead of him in this series but tonight, it is just a team game.
