History
In 2008, the Gigantes advanced to the league's "Super 6" semifinals. The team earned a lead in this phase and came close to receiving a guaranteed spot in the league's final by defeating the Cangrejeros de Santurce in the final stages of the "Super 6".[1] The Gigantes entered this series with only two games left for qualification.[2] However Santurce won the second game with score of 99-83.[3] Carolina eventually won the series and eliminated Santurce.[4] The Gigantes and the Capitanes were the teams that advanced to the finals.[5] The series extended to seven games, with both teams winning three games at home.[6] Arecibo won the seventh game with scores of 99-94.[7]
