Terrence Romeo just reminded everyone just how flamboyant he could be when handed the keys to run the offense for a team.

The three-time scoring champion displayed his vintage form in Game 2 of San Miguel’s semifinals series against Barangay Ginebra, putting the ball in the basket in variety of ways from the deuce, the treys and the fours in the overtime period to save the Beermen with a 131-125 overtime win.

Playing most of the time off the bench for SMB, Romeo said he just stayed ready especially that he was not the type to shy away from the spotlight.

“Sa mga ganung moment, matagal naman na ‘kong may experience diyan, tsaka alam ko ‘yung pakiramdam ng playoffs, ng semis. Alam ko ‘yung pakiramdam kung paano mag-perform diyan,” said the 32-year-old combo guard.

Romeo finished with 26 points – 13 of which he poured in the fourth frame when he tried to keep the Beermen’s head above the water against a surging rally of the Kings led by Justin Brownlee, Stephen Holt and Scottie Thompson.

He traded big shots after big shots before he was called for a crucial foul on Maverick Ahanmisi, sending him to the foul line with two seconds left. Ahanmisi nailed the two free throws and sent the game to overtime.

But instead of being dampened by his blunder, a fire was lit in the eyes of Romeo who made sure to bounce back in the extra time.

There, Romeo returned to his streaking scoring ways, going on a personal 9-0 spurt highlighted by back-to-back conversions from the three and the four to give SMB the lead for good 121-117.

“Ready lang ako. Ready lang ako every game,” said Romeo.

“Hindi naman nagbabago ‘yung hard work ko kaya hindi rin bumababa ang kumpiyansa ko pagdating sa mga ganung moments,” he added.
