A unique phase in the tournament called the pool round, gives gasping squads a last shot at advancing to the quarterfinals. Top teams Hapee and Harbour Centre, along with San Mig Coffee were in Pool A. The four lower seeded teams are in Pool B.[2]
Hapee Toothpaste, who advances to the best-of-three semifinals outright, remain unbeaten for nine games after winning over Harbour and San Mig Coffee in the Pool A round-robin.[3]
Harbour ended Hapee's 12-game winning streak following a 73-59 victory in Game two and tied the series at one game apiece.[4] The following day in the deciding third game of the best-of-three title series, Harbour Centre came back from 19 points down and forces overtime at 78-all, before winning, 94-88, as Batang Pier captured a record four straight PBL crown.[5] Harbour Centre's TY Tang was honored as the Finals Most Valuable Player.
