If George King and Blackwater sweep their last four assignments, the Bossing could still sneak into the PBA Season 49 Commissioner’s Cup quarterfinals.
For a shot at reaching the playoffs, nothing less of perfection is needed from George King and the Blackwater Bossing.
In the middle of a four-game skid, the Bossing target to keep their slim hopes of advancing into the next round of the PBA Season 49 Commissioner’s Cup in slugging out with the also-ran Terrafirma Dyip on Wednesday, January 15.
Tipoff is set for 5:00 p.m. at the Ninoy Aquino Stadium.
At 1-7, Blackwater finds itself in a precarious position, needing to sweep its final four games to even give themselves a chance of keeping its season alive.
However, the task is daunting, especially after an embarrassing 86-63 blowout loss to Barangay Ginebra in their previous outing.

In that defeat, the Bossing struggled offensively, shooting a dismal 29% from the field with King carrying much of the offensive load but with the team with minimal support from the local crew.
