Slaughter, NorthPort bounce back strong to nip Rain or Shine

This time, the NorthPort Batang Pier made sure they'll have seven-foot center Greg Slaughter inside in the crucial stretches of the game.

Slaughter came up with a monster performance all game long capped by a big-time block off Gabe Norwood to preserve the Batang Pier's tense 91-88 overtime triumph against the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters on Sunday in the PBA Philippine Cup.
