Tony Harris pumped in all but two of Swift's 23 points in the final period to salvaged a win. Harris capped his brilliant game with six straight points in the last 55 seconds to outlast the entire Seven-Up crew.

Game 3

Swift broke the game apart in the third quarter under a 21-point barrage in a stretch of eight minutes to forge ahead at 88–75. Seven-Up could only come closest at 87–98, before falling back as many as 18 points, 91–109. The Meaties' local starters; Jack Tanuan, Nelson Asaytono, Rudy Distrito and Al Solis combined for 63 points while Tony Harris scored 49 points.

Game 4

Seven-Up led at the end of the first quarter at 25–21, but the Meaties outscored them, 38–20 in the second period to take a 59–45 halftime lead. It was all Swift in the last 24 minutes of play as Tony Harris dominated, finishing with a triple-double of 58 points, 19 rebounds and 12 assists in a fitting finale on the last playing day of the PBA at the ULTRA.
