In the main game, the Ateneo Blue Eagles repeated over league archrivals, the De La Salle Green Archers, to secure the top spot at at 8-1 with a 81-65 victory at the Araneta Coliseum witnessed by 17, 524 crowd supporters from both sides.
The Blue Eagles led by as much as 23 points, 73-50, after a basket by Rabeh Al Hussaini with 3:33 minutes left in the 4th period. It was Ateneo all the way with De La Salle, sliding down to 5th place at 4-5. This 3rd straight loss marks DLSU’s longest losing streak since Franz Pumaren took over as head coach in 1998.
In the 2nd half, the Eagles showed no mercy as they held the Green Archers to just 43.2% from the field. Peejay Barua led the Green Archers with 16-points (4-points in the 1st half). Al Hussaini led Ateneo with 26 points and 3 rebounds followed by Eric Salamat and Nico Salva with 11-points and 10-points respectively for the Blue Eagles.
“We finally played basketball today, the best in the entire collegiate season. I told them to be humble and that they don’t have to show off. We played defense really well. Coming into this game, we really prepared for the staggering screens of La Salle. Nico [Salva] is really taking advantage of his role as a support player delivering with the quality minutes being given to him. I’m glad we had a strong start in this game and we also ended it strong.†said a jubilant Coach Norman Black.

Yesterday
I saw a team
… whose pressing defense did not work
… that can’t shoot from the outside but keeps on doing it
… whose free throws are eratic
… that can’t get 2nd chances, and if in occassions do, won’t make it
… whose veterans (at least most of them) don’t play well
… who can’t defend their opponents bigs
Is this team green? looks like a beat up team that now feels blue for the beating they got from the BLUE EAGLES.
haha..

John Green,
I think all your points are valid except for the press. Norman black just got press break strategies almost perfected. 2 TOs from the press is the same as the previous game. DLSU’s problem is really their offense and not defense.

@KING TAMARAW
Hambog! ahahaha… are u really from FEU? or a wanna be? ahahaha
ohhhhhh!!! ohhh!!! ohhh!!! ohhhhhh!!! oh!!! TALO NA NAMAN!!!!
D – LS – U!!!! TALO NA LASALLE!!!
Its good that Coach Norman told his boys to be humble. Even him acknowledged na mayayabang talaga some of his players. Ang yayabang kasi talaga naman. I hope naman na this will last. Kung hinde, then it just confirms that it is in their nature na talaga (ang kayabangan).
People enjoys a great game. But more people enjoys on how a game was played (win or loss). If Ateneo cannot be humble enough when playing, they are losers inspite of winning a game.
kahit sino pa ang tumalo sa school ko kahit matambakan pa yan. La Salle pa rin ang pipiliin ko.
@ wag mainis
thank you sa mga comments, mas ikaw pa ang nagmumukhang mayabang. sige lang ok lang naman samin eh. but still… La Salle pa rin ang susuportahan namin kahit ano pang sabihin niyo. hanggang sa net ka lang naman. or kung talagang matapang ka sabihin mo sakin ng harap-harapan at sa mga kapwa ko Lasallian yang mga panglalait mo.
Congrats Ateneo! pag hindi kami nakapasok ng final four ngayon well, see you next year!

agree ako sa sinabi mo, like last week nakita ko si Rabeh sa Trinoma I was really disappointed dahil sa ugali niyang ubod pala ng yabang magpapapicture pa naman sana ako kaya lang wag nalang talagang ipinamumukha niya taga Ateneo siya naka jacket pa siya eh ang init init naman para lang mapakitang taga Ateneo siya agaw pansin pa siya dahil ang ingay niya.
Oh sorry… tims yap. Yes, I am a 12 year old kid who loves watching basketball. I am not from Ateneo or La Salle kaya wala ako bias. Even you should notice yong kayabangan ng kaeskwela mo otherwise baka mas mayabang ka kaya di mo makita.
Sorry, if the truth hurts. Kung tinamaan ka, pasensya ka na, kuya. Even if my english as in your own word is “hilarious”, I believe my message is plain and simple. Kung di mo maintindihan, you want me to say it in plain tagalog? Oh tagasaan ka ba, baka sa local dialect mo, mas maintindihan mo.
Alter Ego,
I will refrain from commenting on your grammar. I will however point something out that’s far more important: it is good of our coach to remind our players to remain humble. Quite the opposite of the green coach who applauds his players for taunting — from Yeo and Arana to today’s Webb and Bringas. Nakakahiya sila.
natawa ako sa sinabi ng mom na Atenean tungkol kila Ryan Buenafe, Baclao, Monfort etc
“player ba ng Ateneo yan? bakit ang papangit ng itsura hinugot lang ata sa tabi tabi yan”
@ KING TAMARAW
kick out your face!!
lamang lang sa tangkad yang FEU mo. pero kang patas lang yung height malamang tulog kayo sa uste…
kita naman natin si ababou lang ang kumakamada sa ilalim pero panis padin sila cawaling at nondou.
magaling ang FEU pero sa skills d naman nahuhuli UST. remember lamang kami nung first half. kinapos lang sa huli…
mejo foul ung assessment mo sa ust. bilog bola brad.!
kahit sino pwede manalo..
UST trying hard school??? duhh!! look who’s talking?
@KING TAMARAW:
Kesho ba FEU nasa top, tama bang dapat ng manglait sa ibang teams? Eto lait ko sa iyo. Magbasa-basa ka muna ng history ng UAAP at ng mga archives nito. REMEMBER since the early years ng UAAP, ayaw kayo isali (that was wayback in the 30′s nung naguumpisa pa lang at on going na ang Big 3 assoc) hahahah… kapag wala ang UP dahil sa mass intramurals nila saling ket-ket lang kayo sa Big 3 assoc. Naawa lang ang Big 3 assoc kaya naging UAAP, therefore siningit lang kayo. Did you think ung Top 4 schools bago naging top 4 yan dumaan sa struggles kung ano man sila ngayon? Syempre dami nangyari sa mga schools na yan kaya wag na wag kang manglalait kung wala ka rin namang pagbabasehan either history man or academics. FEU late lang naman yan ulit naging Powewrhouse basketball program eh. Isipin mo na lang kung walang FEU sa UAAP, walang mga hambog na nanlalait dito sa kapwa UAAP schools.
Think before you act. Thanks.
WhiteLight,
That’s why I commended Coach Norman. Kaya ko rin nasabi ang mga nasabi ko kasi si Coach Norman na rin ang nagsabi. Otherwise, pababayaan ko na lang.
With La Salle’s coach, I have to wait muna to whatever he says before I could comment. Kay Coach Norman, it became a fact when he acknowledged it kasi. Sa nakita mo sa La Salle, interpretation mo lang yon. Until I heard their side, its all pure speculations lang.
Tama ba ang English ko, Kuya Tims Yap?

Brother Eagles and Coach Norman,Boomalaka!
There is much pride in humility,indeed.
It is a major trait of a great player,good team

When we meet them again,give another hoia hoia

KING TAMARAW = POSER ahahaha… dami mong alam… pakialam namin jan sa list mo… KASAMA KA BA JAN? MAG ARAL KA MUNA … Get a lyf!
@Tims Yap:
Sus, sabi ng Dad ko ako na raw ang huwag pumatol sa yo kasi obviously mas bata raw utak mo kaysa sa kin. Sige na nga… Sabi ko naman, masarap ka kalaro, kasi pareho tayong bata. haha Tumawa sya.
naku naman… lagi na lang BLUE ang ngcecelebrate!

DLSU gising! kaya p yan!
People. People.
please..
wag naman po kayong manlait.
ung si “wag mainis”.. atenean ka b talaga.??
parang hindi eh.
At please.. tayong mga Atenean please, wag namang maging mayabang. ITS NOT OUR OWN STRENGHT AND WISDOM THAT LEADS US TO VICTORY. IT’S ACTUALLY GODS’.. so please be humble and thank him that we won and ask him to help the UAAP players to do good in this season.
thank you and God bless.

Maaaring si Henry Sy ang pinakamayaman, ngunit di iyon ang batayan ng pagsukat ng edukasyon na ibinibigay ng isang eskuwelahan. Kung tutuusin, masmarami pa rin ang mayayaman na galing sa Ateneo. Isa lang si Henry Sy sa mga pinakamayaman, pero madami ring galing sa UST, DLSU, ADMU at UP. Masmadami silang napoproduce na top notchers sa bar kaya siguro sila ang top 4 schools sa Pilipinas.
Yun lang naman sa tingin ko ang tama. Di ka dapat manghusga ng school kung di mo man lang alam ang panig ng iba. Salamat.
Di reliable ang wikipedia as source nga pala. Di ginagamit yan ng mga kolehiyo kasi dapat marunong kayo magresearch gamit ang libro. Kaya tayo may mga library sa school diba? Pero pinaka-unreliable ang wikipedia dahil kahit sino pwede mag-edit niyan. Maglog-in ka lang, maieedit mo na. See? Kahit pangalan ko pwede ilagay dyan. Haha, yun lang naman.
….tama lahat ng cnabi ni wag mainis……..ang yaybng tlga ng LA SALLE…….khit ang mangyari hindi kau mkkpsok sa Final 4 lalong lalo na sa Finals this season……..walang wala ang la salle…….smuko na lang kau tutal wala nman kaung kalaban laban……….. Go Home!!!!!!!alam nio ang meaning ng DLSU……… e di…….D Losers Standing Useless………..BOOOOOOOO La Salle……….
@ bedalumni
of course nag moved on na kami, masaya naman kami kahit talo kami it’s just a game. actually masaya ang mga players namin ngayon parang sila pa yung nanalo dahil sobrang saya nila na parang walang nangyari kahapon. its ok. we keep the faith :)

@ anti_dlsu
talaga? thank you. :) ok lang naman na matalo kami ang importante lumalaban pa rin kami at hindi sumusuko. La Salle pa rin kami.
@cupid
….welcome pero 22o nman lahat ng cnabi ko e……. so what kung La Salle pa rin kau…….Idontcare…….
ang babaw naman ng argument na FEU is great because Henry Sy graduated from that school. Eh pag icompare ang average income ng lahat ng alumni ng FEU no match naman sa average income ng alumni ng ateneo or lasalle or UP or UST..tama na ang yabang..ang babaw ninyo. Parang nagmumukha tuloy cheap ang FEU, sumasakay lang kay Henry Sy..
There is no better way of saying that FEU is cheap, you can see it in their cheers! you can see it in the way they move their hands…its a total no brainer school….. Just to add….sabihin nang mababaw ang final statement ko pero I have to say it….GREEN PANTS? This is the stupidest uniform I have ever seen.
Hello Peeps!
I’m from FEU and I’m telling you guys KING TAMARAW is not from FEU, poser lang yan. I Repeat KING TAMARAW IS NOT FROM FEU!!!! In which his intention of posting such info is really to put down FEU and think less of its students and alumni.
Dudes and dudettes, remember this – a true Tamaraw is really proud of its roots but not to the point that he/she will be boastful and bash other schools just to prove how much he/she loves our alma mater.
Humbleness was taught to us first year pa lang. In which obviously this particular trait is not evident with how this TAMARAW KING guy comduct himself.
POSER yan so don’t waste your precious time reading nor replying to his message. You have a life right? Then keep him out of it. =)
@ballpatrol
si KING TAMARAW malamang bantay sa PC shop, fan ng wikipedia, kaya thanks for highlighting
I know people from FEU, UE, UP, DLSU, ADU, UST, and Ateneo. We all get together nicely. I know how people from FEU behave.
@ anti_dlsu
bakit kami lang ba mayabang? at least kami inaamin namin na nagyayabang kami, saka lahat naman may mayabang. bakit ikaw ba hindi ka nagyayabang?
@ shin
so? eh ano naman kung hindi kami makapasok ng final four at least kami susuportahan pa rin namin ang La Salle hindi lang sa basketball.
@King Tamaraw
Well,well,you’re quite the celebrity here, aren’t you? Enjoying the attention? Wait, this article is about the ateneo lasalle game right? So what the hell are you doing here?!?!?! Okay, the public has an opinion on the rivalry, but you come in here talking about FEU when it has nothing to do with this article? What kind of a retard are you? Oh, i forgot, the type that comes from Recto, from a school whose fans wear their P.E. uniforms to games, can’t afford one? I know you can, but you’d rather save it, wouldnt you? And please, FEU may have produced Henry Sy, but since a dumb retard such as yourself doesnt have the faintest clue of what he’s talking about(I must commend you though for having enough brains to use google, hahaha), I have to inform you that the Montinolas made and own your beloved school. Who are they? ATENEANS. So shut up and stop commenting here because you clearly have no idea what it means to be a college basketball fan. Watch the games nalang, and dont forget to wash and iron your p.e. uniform, malapit na next game niyo. hahaha
@ TAX
Thanks for seeing my point..and I agree at makikita mo naman sa venue na walang hostility between students from the 8 schools..dito lang naman may angas eh kasi anonymous, you have the freedom to say what you want kasi everybody is hiding from a fictitious persona..
kaya stupid ang magpapapatol..hehe.
guys that king tamaraw is just a poser, trying to throw mad on us, using our school name para lang lalong mapakita nia na FEU students are like what he wanted to portray. he is absolutely a FAKE. maybe that poser is from other school pretending to be a Tamaraw. . hell no!! sana lang hindi cia part ng any universities from uaap. disgusting! nice try dude. . dami tlaga poser. hirap kc kung cno cno nlng pwedeng mag comment d2 e. haha. .
