The B-Meg Llamados booked a ticket to the 2012 PBA Governors ' Cup Finals against the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters , after beating Ginebra 74-72 , via a Peter June Simon game-winner . B-Meg dropped their first game 91 – 80 , but the resilient Llamados bounced back and defeated Rain or Shine 85 – 80 in Game 2 , where James Yap was named Best Player of the Game after a 24-point , 9-rebound performance . But B-Meg suffered two straight losses , 93 – 84 and 94 – 89 respectively , as Rain or Shine led the series 3 – 1 . But in Game 5 , James Yap retaliated with a conference-high 30 points to lead B-meg to a 91 – 81 victory . Yap dedicated his performance to his former mother-in-law , the late former President Corazon Aquino . Yap then chipped in 20 points in the crucial Game 6 , as B-meg won in convincing fashion , 97 – 81 , to tie the series at 3 – 3 . With Game 7 at hand , B-Meg aimed to become just the fourth team in PBA history to come back from a 1 – 3 deficit in the finals - a feat they had previously accomplished in 2006 . They also looked to grab their first back-to-back championships in franchise history . However , the Rain or Shine Elasto Painters fought hard in Game 7 and defeated B-Meg , 83 – 76 despite Yap 's 23-point performance . B-Meg missed crucial shots during crunch time , and import Marqus Blakely fouled out of the game early in the fourth period . At season 's end , Yap was selected to the PBA Mythical First Team
