The door is slowly closing in for the Powerade Tigers of coach Bo Perasol as they trail the Talk N Text Tropang Texters three games to nil in the ongoing PBA Philippine Cup finals. This is the second finals stint for Perasol in his pro coaching career. It can be recalled that Perasol piloted the Air21 Express to the championship series against the Ginebra Gin Kings during the 2008 PBA Fiesta Conference. With the Express leading the series, three games to two, Perasol uttered one of the most unpopular quotes in league history before a live TV audience. He said that the Cuneta Astrodome (the venue for game six) is too small for the anticipated Air21 championship celebration. And alas, the Gin Kings went on to win the series in seven games. The bad karma seems to haunt Perasol anew.
“Maliit ang Cuneta Astrodome para sa championship celebration namin. (the Cuneta Astrodome is too small a venue for our championship celebration).”
