Glenn Khobuntin says he fights with Poy Erram ‘Fire Friendly’

Glenn Khobuntin hastened to rule out his verbal altercation With teammate TNT Poy Erram as nothing more than a sample of emotions between two players who want to win a lot.

The 33 -year -old striker said there is nothing else in the incidentt that spoiled the Loss of Tropang Giga ‘103-98 before Rain or Shine’s elast painters On Sunday night in the semifinals of the Copa of the PBA Commissioner at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Khobuntin said the tension was high during that time shortly after Erram whistled for a technical foul due to excessive complaint with 18 seconds before the break and TNT, 41-48.

“High emotions, e. An Ang Pangit Ng Laro Namin. But Friendly Fire Lang Naman Yun. Sobrang Tagal Ko Nang Kilala Yes Poy, ”said the product of the National University after the loss that reduced TNT advantage in 2-1 in the best series of seven.

Erram apparently complained about being sustained by a rain or bright defender who led him not to handle the pass made by Rey Nambatac. The veteran big man obviously lost his calm and complained with the referees, receiving a technical foul.

Erram continued to complain with the referees in the upper part of his voice, which led TNT Sandy Arepacochaga and Khobuntin coach to intervene and try to cool it.

However, the TNT center did not take what Khobuntin told him too well, pushing his teammate twice to cause the heated word exchange.

Import Rondae Hollis Jefferson and Roger Pogoy then removed Erram from the team’s bank to prevent the situation from intensifying.

“Sabi Ko Lang Naman Baka Mag-Two Technical Faults Pa Siya, and Important Niya Kanina. Then Yun Lang Yun, ”said Khobuntin.

But he admitted that he was surprised by Erram’s action.

“Medyo Nagulat Din Ako. But Yun Lang Yun,” said Khobuntin. “Siyempre Tao Lang Din Naman Tayo. Then, control the emotions of Din Natin Yung Natin Kasi, we are in the middle of a game. Sayang Naman, dikit pa (Yung Laro).
