MANILA  – Talk ‘N Text made it two in a row against San Mig Coffee after surviving an 84-81 overtime win on Wednesday night to force do-or-die Game 5 for PBA Governor’s Cup finals slot at the Araneta Coliseum.

Ranidel de Ocampo hit a triple as the Tropang Texters opened the extra five minutes with 7-2 run and put up good defensive job to spoil the Coffee Mixers’ bid to wrap up the semifinal series.

”We did what we have to do which is to fight another day. My guys gutted it our today. We cut down on their inside game. It’s all about who has more left in the tank on Friday,” TNT coach Norman Black said.

James Yap sent the game into overtime with one hand shot at the buzzer but Aron Aban held Yap scoreless in overtime and the Tropang Texters tied the series at 2-2.

Import Paul Harris topscored with 22 points and grabbed 13 rebounds while Jason Castro and Larry Fonacier added 11 points apiece for Tropang Texters.
