PBA SEMI FINALS
Red Bull ties
semis with Purefoods
BY NIDA BUENAFE
Red Bull bounces back from a frustrating Game 1 loss in the hands of Purefoods with a 93-89 win last night at the Cuneta Astrodome to even their semi-final series in the 2007-08 SMART PBA Philippine Cup.
The Barakos shook off the lethargy that seemed to befall them during Sunday's 103-84 loss to pull one over the Giants in their best-of-seven showdown.
Early in the Game, coach Ryan Gregorio's wards were priming for a 2-0 lead in the series but the Barakos of coach Yeng Guiao simply refused to back down, got their acts together and put Red Bull back on the race for a slot in the finals.
