Grand Slam coach Tim Cone considered it a privilege to lead the Gin Kings to a 101-96 victory over the Meralco Bolts in front of a record 50,086 crowd at the Philippine Arena in Bocaue, Bulacan on Friday.

“When I go to the US for a family reunion and given a chance to watch the Warriors-Heat game in San Francisco, I can’t wait to tell coach Erik Spoelstra that I just coached in front of 50,000 people. That’s amazing and nobody does that maybe 30,000 but 50,000 is such a privilege,” said Cone of the thrilling Game 7 of the best-of-seven finals of Season 42 Governors’ Cup.
