The 1997 Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) Commissioner's Cup was the second conference of the 1997 PBA season. It started on June 13 and ended on September 7, 1997. The tournament is an Import-laden format, which requires an import or a pure-foreign player for each team with a 6'8" height limit. ==Format== The following format will be observed for the duration of the conference: *The teams were divided into 2 groups. : Group A: #Formula Shell Zoom Masters #Mobiline Cellulars #Purefoods Corned Beef Cowboys #San Miguel Beermen Group B: #Alaska Milkmen #Gordon's Gin Boars #Pop Cola Bottlers #Sta. Lucia Realtors *Teams in a group will play against each other twice and against teams in the other group once; 10 games per team; Teams are then seeded by basis on win-loss records. Ties are broken among point differentials of the tied teams. Standings will be determined in one league table; teams do not qualify by basis of groupings. * The top five teams after the eliminations will advance to the semifinals.〔(Complete semis cast hinges on Gordon's victory today ), Manila Standard〕 * Semifinals will be two round robin affairs with the remaining five teams. Results from the eliminations will be carried over. A playoff incentive for a finals berth will be given to the team that will win at least five of their eight semifinal games. * The top two teams (or the top team and the winner of the playoff incentive) will face each other in a best-of-seven championship series. The next two teams (or the loser of the playoff incentive and the fourth seeded team) dispute the third-place trophy in a one-game playoff. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1997 PBA Commissioner's Cup」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
