By Gilas Pilipinas Youth literally waxed hot right from the get-go as it demolished Thailand by 45 points, 87-42, to remain spotless in the FIBA U16 Asia Cup SEABA Qualifiers on Sunday at the Bren Z. Guiao Sports Complex.
All Gilas needed was a furious first quarter, where the hosts unleashed 31 points and limited the visitors to a tough one-point performance, to create the separation it needed.
The Thais managed to put the clamps on the Filipinos come the second period, but that wasn’t enough as the Philippines mounted a 47-20 halftime cushion
Batang Gilas didn’t look back since then en route to another lopsided victory, which came just 24 hours after dealing Vietnam a 113-62 defeat.
