July 21: Working behind inspired games from second stringers Joey Santamaria and Elmer Reyes, the Hotdogs came roaring back from 15 points down and repeated with a 108–104 win over Swift Mighty Meaties at the start of the semifinal round in the All-Filipino Conference. The victory was Purefoods' sixth straight win.

July 23: Purefoods coasted to a 113–105 win over Shell Rimula-X and racked up their seventh win in a row that bolstered their record to 10 wins and two losses in the All-Filipino Conference semifinals.
