The Barangay Ginebra-Air21 battle for the Smart PBA Fiesta Conference crown finally begins today with the Kings looking to stretch their franchise-record run and the Express hoping for the best in their first ever finals before an expected sellout crowd at the Araneta Coliseum.

Gametime is at 7:20 p.m. after the one-game playoff for third place between the Red Bull Barakos and the Magnolia Beverage Masters at 4:50 p.m.

Ginebra and Air21 are motivated to win the championship with the Kings even making two import changes and one major trade to bounce back from a shaky start to clinch the first finals berth behind an amazing 12-game streak.

Ronald Tubid will still be out of the playing court due to injury.
