Romeo converted 16 of his 30 attempts, including eight three-pointers, to net his career-best scoring performance.To make matters worse for Rain or Shine, they also failed to stop Romeo&#x27;s &quot;Slash Brother,&quot; Stanley Pringle, who had 28 points on 10-of-18 shooting.&quot;Defense ang problema namin,&quot; Belga said bluntly, after they wound up with a 99-117 loss. &quot;Two guys, 44 tapos 28?&quot;Belga hinted that in the early days of his career, he would not have allowed an opponent to register such a high-scoring output.<ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="http://sports.abs-cbn.com/basketball/news/2017/01/29/romeo-s-44-points-tows-globalport-pba-playoffs-21096">READ: Romeo&#x27;s 44 points tows Globalport into PBA playoffs</a></li></ul>&quot;Hindi ko ina-ano, ha, pero noong bago-bago ako sa liga, pagka-ganyang klase at nakaka-bente ka na, iba na,&quot; he said. &quot;Hindi ka basta-basta makaka-score. Kahit mag-fine ako, wala akong pakialam.&quot;&quot;Pero hindi na pwede &#x27;yun ngayon eh,&quot; he quickly added. &quot;So pagalingan na lang dumepensa.&quot;Belga pointed out that offense has never been Rain or Shine&#x27;s issue, and indeed, they made 41% of their shots against the Batang Pier. On defense, however, they need to regain the mentality that helped them reach the semifinals of nine consecutive conferences.&quot;Kung kailangang higpitan ang depensa… &#x27;yun naman ang solusyon eh,&quot; he said.&quot;Sa first half, tabla kasi nade-depensahan namin &#x27;yung opensa nila,&quot; he added, referring to the 50-50 deadlock at halftime. &quot;Pero noong medyo na-ano kami, doon na lang umalagwa eh.&quot;&quot;And s&#x27;yempre, nakaka-frustrate kapag nakaka-shoot, pero kasama sa laro &#x27;yun. Frustration. Ang kailangan mo lang, bumawi,&quot; he said.Rain or Shine has one last chance to secure a quarterfinals berth on Wednesday, when they play the Alaska Aces.&quot;We had two chances, we lose one, may chance pa sa Wednesday,&quot; said Belga. The burly big man stressed the need for them to beat Alaska, otherwise, they will have to play Blackwater in a knockout game for the eighth seed, and then advance to play top-seeded San Miguel in another knockout game.&quot;Knockout lahat. Pag nagkamali ka, patay ka na, pahinga ka na, bawi ka na lang sa next conference, and ayaw ko yun,&quot; he stressed. &quot;Ayaw kong umabot sa dalawang conference na magkasunod na na-out kami.&quot;For more sports coverage, visit the <a href="http://sports.abs-cbn.com/" target="_blank">ABS-CBN Sports website</a>.
