Calvin Abueva to James Yap: "Mag-chess na lang siya"

Alaska’s Calvin Abueva bashed San Mig Coffee’s James Yap for accusing the former of playing dirty during their tussle in the 2013 PBA Commissioner’s Cup semifinals.

Abueva said that if the two-time PBA Most Valuable Player can’t handle a physical game, then the latter should go and play chess instead.

“Lahat naman ng laro physical, hindi ba? Kung isa sa amin ayaw masaktan, eh di mag-chess na lang siya,” the former San Sebastian standout said in Mei-Lin Lozada’s Spin.ph report.

The Aces and the Mixers are currently locked in a 1-1 standoff in their best-of-five semifinals series and Abueva was tasked to guard the San Mig basketball star.

In Game 2, where Alaska swamped San Mig Coffee, 86-67, Abueva was able to hold Yap to a mere five points.

Yap, who has been playing with a bad back, complained that Abueva was using dirty tricks to ruin his play.

“Okay lang ang physical, walang problema dun, pero `yung physical niya (Abueva) medyo di na tama. Tinira niya ako, siniko niya likod ko as in sapul ako sa likod,” he said.

“Pero gusto ko lang sabihin sa kanya na wag siya masyado ano…kasi di tama eh.”

But Abueva maintained he has done nothing wrong, even stressing he’ll be always playing the same way.

“Next game mas pipikunin ko pa siya. Kung kaya kong gawin `yung ginawa ko kanina, gagawin ko pa sa next game, or kung mas maganda, hihigitan ko pa.”
