The Meralco Bolts finished the 2015-2016 PBA Philippine Cup with a dismal record of 1-10. The players are inconsistent, the plays are erratic and the team as a whole were uninspired. It also marked as Meralco's worst record in franchise history since they joined the league way back in 2010.
Rookies Chris Newsome, Baser Amer, and Joseph Sedurifa showed some flashes of brilliance, but they are still unable to close pressure-packed games. The return of Rabeh Al-Hussaini has notimproved the bench that much, while new recruits Jimmy Alapag, Ronjay Buenafe, Justin Chua and Bryan Faundo ony showed a glimpse of what they have in the past.
The long break has given the Bolts a new hope and a new chance to redeem themselves. With the highly-touted Arinze Onuaku in tow, the Bolts will try to fortify themselves among the top tier teams in the league.
They have the personnel. They have the coach. They have the support of management. What is left is to mold everything into one cohesive and deadly force that moves like a well-oiled machine. No more excuses.
