The 2010-11 Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) Philippine Cup was the first conference of the 2010-11 PBA season. The tournament started on October 3, 2010 with the new team, Meralco Bolts defeating the Brgy. Ginebra Kings in the opening game. The tournament is an All-Filipino format, which doesn't require an import or a pure-foreign player for each team.

Format

The following format was observed for the duration of the conference:

  • The teams were divided into 2 groups.
  • Teams in a group will play against each other once and against teams in the other group twice; 14 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 eight teams will advance to the quarterfinals.
