1982 Crispa Redmanizers season

The Redmanizers and the Toyota Super Corollas renew their rivalry in the best-of-five semifinal series.

In the Asian Invitational Championship, the Redmanizers played opposite first conference runner-up San Miguel in the finals.

Crispa lost in the best-of-three title series where the Beermen battled back from a nine-point deficit in the final quarter of the deciding third game to win by a point, 103-102.

Crispa ended up with its worst finish ever in franchise history by placing seventh and winning just six out of 18 games in the elimination phase.

On November 13, Crispa beat Toyota, 105-103 in overtime, in what turn out to be coach Baby Dalupan's final game as the Redmanizers head mentor.
