Meralco faltered in its mission to overcome "Linsanity" as the Bolts bowed to Jeremy Lin and the New Taipei Kings, 77-89, in the East Asia Super League at the PhilSports Arena Wednesday night.
-
Lin, the biggest draw in the well-attended Group B match, lived up to expectations and delivered a 23-point 10-rebound, four-assist performance in leading the Kings to their third straight victory in basketball-crazy Philippines.
In front of a good-sized audience led by PBA chairman Ricky Vargas and Lin's friend and former NBA teammate Rondae Hollis-Jefferson of TNT, the Taiwanese star knocked down two booming triples to spark an 11-0 salvo that keyed New Taipei's breakaway in the third.
