Converge had a 68–55 halftime advantage but was outscored 42–28 in the third quarter as Rain or Shine seized control. Despite strong individual scoring performances, Converge will need to defend more effectively after halftime and avoid giving its opponent repeated opportunities through turnovers.
Converge should look to establish Clark early, using his ability to score inside and from the perimeter to force Rain or Shine to adjust defensively. Arana and Abueva must continue attacking the basket, while Gomez de Liaño should organize the offense and find open teammates instead of relying too heavily on individual scoring.
Defensively, the FiberXers need to limit Fuller’s touches near the basket, close out more effectively on Nocum and Tiongson, and prevent the transition opportunities that helped Rain or Shine recover. Protecting the ball and maintaining defensive intensity throughout all four quarters will be essential to leveling the series.

Rain or Shine Elasto Painters Preview
Rain or Shine defeated Converge 124–120 on October 27, overcoming a 21-point deficit to take a 1–0 lead in the best-of-five series. Aaron Fuller led the Elasto Painters with 33 points and 14 rebounds, while Adrian Nocum added 26 points, nine assists, five rebounds, and three steals. Caelan Tiongson contributed 17 points, and rookie Deo Cuajao scored 15.
Rain or Shine turned the game around with a 42-point third quarter, then executed crucial plays late in the fourth to secure the win. The comeback was powered by improved shooting and defensive adjustments after Converge had controlled much of the first half.
Rain or Shine should continue running its offense through Fuller’s interior scoring and rebounding while using Nocum’s playmaking to create open looks for Tiongson, Cuajao, and its other perimeter options. The Elasto Painters’ ability to spread the floor and convert three-pointers was crucial in Game 1, so they should maintain that spacing without forcing contested shots.
Defensively, they need to contain Clark earlier, deny easy passes into Arana, and reduce Converge’s second-chance opportunities. Better ball security and a more consistent start will be important if Rain or Shine wants to avoid needing another major comeback.
The Rain or Shine Elasto Painters on average, score 99 points per game, they score 41% from the field and 39.5% from the arc.The Rain or Shine Elasto Painters grab 40 rebounds per game.
