Meanwhile, the Bossing lost for the seventh game in a row, keeping them the only winless team in the league.The Dyip trailed by as much as 13 points in the second quarter but turned the game around in the second half, capped by a strong fourth frame where they outscored the Bossing 31-19.&quot;This team, Blackwater, they have great players, &#x27;di ba, they have a great coach. &#x27;Yun nga sinasabi ko, so we don&#x27;t underestimate them,&quot; said TerraFirma coach John Cardel, whose team improved to 3-4 in the conference.&quot;&#x27;Yun nga, dumikit sila sa amin, but we focused, we stay humble, we stay as a team. Sa defense, we played patient, kaya medyo nakalayo na kami,&quot; he added.The Bossing kept Juami Tiongson in check for the first three quarters, with TerraFirma&#x27;s leading scorer limited to just five points through the third period. But the Dyip were able to overhaul a double-digit deficit thanks to contributions from veterans Aldrech Ramos, Matt Ganuelas-Rosser, and Rashawn McCarthy.After knotting the count at 65 at the end of the third, the Dyip opened the fourth quarter with an 11-4 run to seize control of the game. A jumper by Ramos with under eight minutes to go gave them their first double-digit advantage, 80-70.TerraFirma went on to lead by as much as 18 points, 91-73, off a Tiongson bucket with over three minutes to go. &quot;Si Juami, marked na siya eh. They will try to stop him,&quot; said Cardel. &quot;But some other guys, I know it, may ilalaro pa sila.&quot;Reden Celda earned Player of the Game honors after scattering 15 points, six rebounds, and four assists, while Ramos finished with a team-high 17 points. Andreas Cahilig had a double-double of 12 points and 11 rebounds. Tiongson still reached double-digits with 10 points, though he made only three of his 11 shots.Mike Tolomia scored 14 points, Simon Enciso had 13 and Ed Daquioag added 12 for the Bossing, who continue to grope for form in the conference. The Bossing shot just 38.1% from the field in the game and were out-rebounded, 63-42.

TerraFirma continued its fine play in the restart of the 2021 PBA Philippine Cup.
