The strong desire not to go on vacation early and a show his stuff to a long-time idol drove Meralco point-guard Baser Amer to explode to a career high 32 points on Wednesday night.
Amer, a resident of Barangay Maa, Davao City carried his team to victory against Talk and Text in game 2 of their best of three quarterfinals series 103-100. The sophomore PBA guard said he is challenge not to allow TNT to end their PBA season early which is why he did his best to score big for his team.
He added that the chance to play toe to toe with TNT superstar point-guard Jayson Castro also gave him added motivation to play big for his team. “Ayaw ko rin magbakasyon. Kung natalo kami today, maghihintay na naman kami next conference. Nakakasawa na,” said Amer who made 11 of his 21 shots on top of six rebounds and four assists.
“Gusto ko talaga, yung main target namin is makapunta ng semis then bahala na kung anong mangyayari,” he added. The former player of Holy Child Academy is currenty the leading local scorer for Meralco in ongoing Comissioner's Cup.
