Terrence Romeo kept misfiring on his 3-pointers on Saturday, clank after clank, one miss after another, as the ball just couldn’t find the bottom of the net.
The GlobalPort star missed his first 12 tries, but as his field goal percentage plummeted his confidence stayed steady.
His 13th try proved to be the lucky one and it couldn’t have come at a better time.
“Hindi ako nagda-doubt sa sarili ko kahit na marami akong sablay or talagang hindi ako maka-shoot,” Romeo told reporters after.
Even on a bad shooting night, he still wound up with 29 points and a near triple-double with 10 rebounds and career-high eight assists in a Batang Pier’s 118-116 win over the Mahindra Enforcers in overtime.
The 23-year-old guard made only one 3-pointer, a contested triple from the right wing that tied the game at 116 with 29.8 seconds left and also paved the way for his game-winning layup with 3.3 ticks to go.
“Kahit anong kalabasan nung game, kahit matapos ‘to na ako yung nagpatalo or ako yung hindi naka-shoot nung importanteng basket tatanggapin ko as long as every time na mapupunta sakin yung bola ititira’t ititira ko or gagawin ko yung alam kong tamang desisyon,” Romeo added.
GlobalPort head coach Pido Jarencio commended Romeo’s determination despite a bad shooting night.
“Wala akong masabi dun sa bata. He just kept on shooting and kung ano pa yung importanteng 3-points yun pa yung na-shoot niya which is talagang nakakabilib,” Jarencio said. “Hindi siya nawalan ng kumpiyansa.”
Romeo struggled from the outside, but he was steady from the free throw line where he was 18-of-21
