The **[1992](/source/1992_PBA_season) [Philippine Basketball Association](/source/Philippine_Basketball_Association) (PBA) Third Conference** was the third and last conference of the [1992 PBA season](/source/1992_PBA_season). It started in September 20 and ended on December 13, 1992. The tournament is an import-laden format, which requires an import or a pure-foreign player for each team.

## Format

The following format will be observed for the duration of the conference:

- The teams were divided into 2 groups.

Group A: Ginebra San Miguel Presto Ice Cream Kings Purefoods TJ Hotdogs San Miguel Beermen Group B: Alaska Milkmen 7-Up Uncolas Shell Rimula X Zoomers Swift Mighty Meaty Hotdogs

- Teams in a group will play against each other once and against teams in the other group twice; 11 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.[1]

- The top five teams after the eliminations will advance to the semifinals.

- Semifinals will be two round robin affairs with the remaining teams. Results from the elimination round will be carried over. A playoff incentive for a finals berth will be given to the team that will win at least five of their eight semifinal games.[2]

- The top two teams (or the top team and the winner of the playoff incentive) will face each other in a best-of-seven championship series. The next two teams will qualify for a best-of-five playoff for third place.
