Whew! How do we call that, de javu? I have goose bumps will reading this post. Lets just wait and see on game time. Im still rooting for Ateneo because of my fellow Ilonggos Baclao and Eman Monfort. Monfort was a high school superstar in our province before. Its just happen he plays back up for Jai. With Jai impending graduation, I hope Eman will now became Ateneo's starting PG.

Yup that's how they usually call it. I myself didn't see this coming. Never thought magiging ganyan karami yung similarities/coincidences between '06 and '09. And what's more fascinating and strange na din in a way is that, some of the details - the game fixing issues on 2nd seeded teams, the ACL injuries on both veterans, and even the season MVPs from 4th seeded teams unexpectedly recurred. WHEW!

But like you said, it all boils down to the 3rd and final game. Should Ateneo win, then all of these were mere coincidences but should UE prevail, then lightning does strike twice.

Kudos by the way to that ic3mint for gathering all these data.
