      “I gave that to my players because they're really working hard. It's really hard to cope up with the system with one month, two months,” said Choco Mucho coach Oliver Almadro.

      “Luckily, nakakasunod na, may mga times pa rin na, of course, bumabalik pa rin sa mga default fundamentals.”

      “Ito 'yung mga games na ganito 'yung kailangan namin, 'yung mga ganitong pitpitan, we're down for us to mature right away,” he added.
