Freshman from DLSU with almost a foot difference over veteran pro player. Jordan Bartlett won over Kobe he was tired and out-hassled in the finals of the 1 on 1 hoop last man standing. He used quickness to outsmart the international star player Kobe Paras of UP in the finals. Finishing it with 11-8 in the scorecard finals main event.
He take advantage of the tired Kobe who made a tremendous arm on ring dunks. And great high flying stunt dunks. As Kobe secured the slam last man standing dunk title over the Red Bull international slam dunk pro David Carlos in the finals.
What I've noticed with Jordan is that he always remain on guard and never give an inch to a taller players. Which he beat before in the previous eliminations and quarter finals. Playing a hardcore basics - all effort guard post, forward attack and defensive center at the same time.
Showing a lot of movements utilizing all court/player character aspect-angles for the win. I think the game hard court force will be different if Kobe got a lot of stamina. And also didn't join the dunk competition and focus on the main 1 on 1 event.
Reminds me before of Johnny A and Isaiah Thomas who doesn't care if you're quick, star player, a foot or 2 taller like Marlou Aquino, Lebron, Irving or Curry. He will drive, guard, square, steal, block and shoot at you no matter what.
If you think that height is a matter in last man standing kinda of street-ball challenge think again. Its more of a strategic game just like Jerome Lastimosa of NU and Camile Claro of DLSU you just need to be skillful, fast and quick to win the skills challenge.
Jerrick Ahanmisi of AU and Ana Castillo of DLSU won the 3 point shootout in the finals. So much cheers at SM MOA but by the end of the day, still glorious athletes secured the podium and bring home that UAAP and SM gift check prizes trophy. See short clips videos here.
