And then there were two. The Nueva Ecija Rice Vanguards and Zamboanga Family's Brand Sardines - two teams that lorded over their respective divisions - begin their best of five series in the MPBL National Finals tonight at the Nueva Ecija Coliseum in Palayan City. For Nueva Ecija, the championship series presents an opportunity to cap one of the most dominant seasons in the league's short history. For Zamboanga, the finals is a chance to build their own legacy and make sure that the trophy remains in the South. Both teams took long and difficult paths to the finals, which prepared them for a tough series that will test their strength and resolve. The stage is set for Game 1 in front of Nueva Ecija's rabid fan base. Can the Rice Vanguards keep homecourt advantage or will Zamboanga get a win on the road? #okbetxmpbl #ownthewin #OKBetxMPBL #XTREMEAppliances #OneStopShopAppliances #XTREMExMPBL #ownthewin #OKBetxMPBL #XTREMEAppliances #OneStopShopAppliances #XTREMExMPBL
