    Laban! Ang sigaw ng magigiting
    Angking tikas natatanging galing
    Buo ang loob, di basta palulupig
    Anumang pagsubok di padadaig
    Nakataas noo, matikas ang tindig

    Gilas!Ang ating mga mandirigma
    Ilalagak ang sarili bilang sandata
    Lakas ng kalaban hindi alintana
    Agwat sa tangkad tila balewala
    Sukatan ay ang ibayong tiwala

    Pilipinas, bayan kong paglilingkuran
    Ipaglalaban ng buong katapangan
    Lahat ay gagawin anumang paraan
    Ilalaan lahat ng angking kakayanan
    Pag-ibig sa bayan ang pamantayan
    Ipamalas, tayo ay may paninindigan
    Nagbubunyi ang buong sambayanan
    Adhikain ng Pilipinong mamamayan
    Sigaw ay #PUSO! Laban kung laban!

    #LABANGILASPILIPINAS LABAN!!!

    Sana makasali na ulit si June Mar at palitan si Sonny Thoss kasi nahihirapan talaga tingnan si Sonny pagkamatch na mga kalabang bigman bale nagiging mahina ang kanyang depensa parati nakakacommit ng fouls nagiging ineffective na siya kasi galaw niya as a bigman nagiging mahina dahil sa height niya kahit siya lang mahabol na mapalitan.

    Obviously Blatche is not in good shape and is not ready for battle come 23rd of Sep.

    Kulang sa galaw si hontiveros, dapat marunong syang mag move without the ball. Hinihintay lang nya ang bola at napakababa ang shooting percentage kaya ineffective sya.
