Francois Wise was Tanduay's lone import in their opening day overtime win over Gilbey's Gin at the start of the Open Conference on August 28 when their other import Reggie Gaines was sent home by coach Freddie Webb for reneging on an earlier agreement, asking for astronomical terms which were not part of the bargain when he agreed to come over. Gaines' replacement was another Philadelphia 76ers draftee George Melton. Tanduay had to win their last game in the eliminations against Toyota, 131-119 on October 27, to force a playoff with the Super Corollas for the last quarterfinals berth. Both teams finish with six wins and eight losses. https://pbarecordsoddities.blogspot.com/2016/03/pba-boxscores-october-november-1983.html 1983 PBA Open Conference Stats: Tanduay forces playoff, defeats Toyota In the knockout game three nights later on October 30, the Rhum Makers rallied in the final minute to score a dramatic, come-from-behind 111-110 victory over Toyota, behind the plays of Mike Bilbao and Abet Gutierrez.
