After ruling the first two conferences of the season, TNT gets another shot at joining the elite Grand Slam club, and once again, it’s San Miguel standing in the way
MANILA, Philippines – TNT and San Miguel figure in familiar situations as they tangle for the 2025 PBA Philippine Cup championship.
After ruling the first two conferences of the season, the Tropang 5G get another shot at joining the elite Grand Slam club, and once again, standing in their way are the Beermen.
The two teams face anew with a Grand Slam on the line, 14 years since San Miguel prevented TNT from achieving the rare feat achieved by only four teams in PBA history.
Back in the 2010-2011 campaign, the Tropang 5G, then called the Talk ‘N Text Tropang Texters, also topped the first two conferences, only to be denied of the Triple Crown by the Beermen, who then carried the Petron Blaze Boosters banner, in the season-ending Governors’ Cup.
Talk ‘N Text tied the finals at 3-3 back then, but went on to lose Game 7 as late import Anthony Grundy propelled Petron to the crown.
Can TNT turn its fortunes around or will San Miguel spoil the party once more?
Here is the finals schedule:
- GAME 1 – 7:30 pm, Sunday, July 13, Araneta Coliseum
- GAME 2 – 7:30 pm, Wednesday, July 16, Araneta Coliseum
