Laging sinasabi ni coach Yeng (Guiao), kailangang makarating kami sa pinakamataas,&quot; said Clarito, who was the first recipient of the POW citation in the quarterfinal phase as he upstaged big guns such as San Miguel Beer&#39;s June Mar Fajardo, Barangay Ginebra&#39;s Scottie Thompson and TNT&#39;s RR Pogoy.&nbsp;Guiao was all praises for the 28-year-old, who took Best Player of the Game honor in their go-ahead W in Antipolo.&nbsp;&quot;Si Jhonard played with his heart out and, ano ito, blood, sweat and tears, literal.
