Talk N Text Phonepals stand-by import Omar Shariff Sneed is no slouch. Based on his previous overseas stints, he is highly regarded as a winner, a leader and a pumped-up kind of player. His no-nonsense approach to the game had endeared him to his European clubs. TNT coach Chot Reyes must play Sneed now or else, he may have regrets for not suiting him up for the crucial game five of the PBA Fiesta Conference semis series against the Alaska Aces with the playoffs all squared at two games apiece. For sure, Sneed wants to see action tonight for TNT, and that will avoid him of any johnny-come-lately or too-late-the-hero scenario. The 6-6 former University of Memphis standout was described by his former teammate at Maccabi Rishon in the Israeli League, John Gilchrist, as a hardworker and an all-around performer.
“He's been unbelievable in all our games. He's carried us emotionally, he's really pumped the team up when we needed it, and he just comes every day and works hard. He really wants to win more than the opponent, and you know he's going to give 110 [percent] every time he plays, and you feel comfortable that you've got a guy that's going to go to war with you night in and night out. He can make the big shots, and he doesn't shy away from the moment.”
