The Rain or Shine Elasto-Painters and the Alaska Aces are the only two remaining teams still standing in the 2016 PBA Commissioner’s Cup. Alaska last won the Commish Cup in 2013 behind the exploits of import Rob Dozier, who is also their current import, replacing initial choice Shane Edwards. Rain or Shine, for its part, has never won the Commish Cup, and the Painters will surely leave nothing to chance when they open the fray today against the Aces.
This will ultimately come down to a battle between ROS’s blistering offense and Alaska’s stifling defense. If the “offense wins games, but defense wins championships” adage holds true here, we should be seeing the Aces raise the Commish Cup crown when the dust clears.
