PBA Philippine Cup chronology
PBA conference chronology

The 2020 Philippine Cup is the only conference or tournament of the 2020 PBA season of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA). The 42nd PBA Philippine Cup started on March 8, 2020. The tournament does not allow teams to hire foreign players or imports.[1]

Three days later, the PBA board of governors decided to indefinitely postpone the tournament, together with the PBA D-League Aspirants' Cup, and the launching of the PBA 3x3 league, due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the country and the enforcement of the various quarantine restrictions throughout the country.[2]

During their meeting on September 17, the PBA Board of Governors decided to resume the tournament and create the "PBA bubble" (similar to the successful NBA bubble) at the Clark Freeport Zone in Pampanga. The games will be played at the Angeles University Foundation gymnasium while the players will stay at the Quest Hotel inside Clark.[3] On September 24, the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF-EID) gave the league a provisional approval to have scrimmages and five-on-five games.[4] The 12 teams of PBA arrived in Clark by batches on September 28 and 29, 2020.[5]

On October 6, the league published its complete eliminations schedule. The elimination round games of the Philippine Cup resumed in the "PBA bubble" on October 11 and played daily with two games scheduled per day, with a lone triple-header scheduled on October 31.[6]

On October 30, 2020, the league announced through their social media accounts that the games will be temporarily postponed after a Blackwater Elite player and one of its referees test positive for COVID-19, to ensure the integrity of the PBA bubble and until the new protocols set by the IATF-EID and the Department of Health (DOH) are in place.[7][8][9]

After new protocols have been added, the league announced that the games will resume starting November 3. In order for the league to finish the elimination round by November 11, two to four games were scheduled per day. This was the first time that the PBA had a quadruple-header game day and an official game scheduled in the morning.[10]

Format

The following format will be observed for the duration of the conference. The two of the quarterfinals match-ups were originally be a best-of-three series, and the semifinals be a best-of-seven series but was revised to all quarterfinal match-ups be in a twice-to-beat format, and the semifinals be in a best-of-five series during the planning for the "PBA bubble":[3]

  • Top eight teams will advance to the quarterfinals. In case of tie, playoff games will be held only for the #8 seed.
