Purefoods Tender Juicy Giants seasons

The 2006–07 Purefoods Tender Juicy Giants season was the 19th season of the franchise in the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA).

In the Philippine Cup, they finished fifth, and faced the Sta. Lucia Realtors in order to grab the 5th seed and prevent a wildcard round. In the semifinals, the Giants faced the Talk 'N Text Phone Pals. In Game 1, Marc Pingris top-scored with 19 points to draw first blood. However, Pingris himself suffered a broken nose as the Giants were routed, due to a collision with Jimmy Alapag of the Phone Pals. At the ending moments of the game, Paul Artadi and Alapag had an altercation, and both were ejected from the game; Alapag himself was suspended for Game 3 for punching Artadi in the face, with Roger Yap also suspended and received penalty.[1][2] Also in the Game 3 however, with Pingris wearing a face mask, he was again injured in the second quarter, this time in the left ankle. He did not return, and the Giants were routed by the Phone Pals to lead 2–1. The Phone Pals dethrone the Giants.[3]
