A DAMAGED wall was seen inside the TNT locker room at the Mall of Asia Arena after the Tropang Giga's close 71-70 loss to Barangay Ginebra in Game Two of their PBA Season 49 Commissioner's Cup Finals.
No one from the TNT camp can confirm who broke the wall inside its dugout as of posting time,in the wake of an emotional defeat that also saw big man Poy Erram lose his cool over a disputed foul on Ginebra import Justin Brownlee.
MOA Arena management also has yet to issue a statement.
Erram was seen kicking a cooler in the TNT bench before retreating to the locker room. The temperamental big man returned to the bench several minutes later.

But Ginebra made a comeback in the end led by Brownlee, who knocked down a reverse lay-up and two free throws to save the day for the crowd favorites.
