It&#x27;s going to be a different ball game. They have already scouted us, we&#x27;ve already scouted them also, so now I think it&#x27;s going to be a matter of conditioning,” Chery Tiggo coach Aaron Velez said. <ul class="op-related-articles">	<li><a href="https://news.abs-cbn.com/sports/08/05/21/petro-gazz-completes-pvl-semis-cast">PVL: Petro Gazz sweeps Sta.
