Big Chill vs Cebuana Lhuillier

BIG CHILL and Cebuana Lhuillier take on one another in a duel between contenders in the PBA D-League Aspirants Cup today at the Far Eastern University gym.

The two teams are tied at 4-1 (win-loss) record and in deep in the hunt for the coveted spots in the playoffs. The winner will earn a piece of the lead with idle Freego Jeans. Momentum will be on the side of the Super Chargers, who bounced back from 61-71 loss against Café France last Monday with an inspiring 85-83 decision over depleted NLEX last Thursday that.

The Road Warriors will attempt to get back on the winning track when they take on cellar dweller Cobra Energy Drink in the first game at 2 p.m.

Only six teams will advance in the playoffs after the single round elimination. The top two teams will earn outright spots in the semi-finals while the 3rd and 4th placed teams will enjoy twice-to-beat advantage in the quarterfinals.

The Gems have not played in almost a week but the break in between games allowed them to recharged and hopefully come out fresh in this crucial match. /Correspondent Jonas Panerio
