Five local teams make it to the semifinal round beginning on November 28. The semifinalists' won-loss records in the eliminations will not be carried over and they will start from scratch in order to accommodate guest entry Atlanta Fil-Am, a bunch of Fil-Am cagers from the States, led by the returning Eddie Joe Chavez, who played for the Philippine team under coach Ron Jacobs in the 1981 Jones Cup and among others, Jeffrey Cariaso from Sonoma State and Frank McKinney from University of Hawaii. Four local players beefed up the Atlanta squad coached by disc jockey Bobby Ante.
Triple-V advances in the finals first by beating Sta.Lucia, 73-71, on the last playing date of the semifinal round on December 12, forcing the Realtors in a playoff with Casino Rubbing Alcohol. The Realtors prevailed over the Alcohol Distillers, 63-51, in their knockout game two days later.
For the third time in a year, Triple-V and Sta.Lucia will battle for the PBL championship. The Foodmasters, which acquired Johnny Abarrientos from the disbanded Crispa at the start of the conference, got back over the Realtors via 3-0 sweep in the Invitational Cup finals.
