The Oracle Residences Titans was a basketball team playing in the Philippine Basketball League (PBL) and was owned by Mikee Romero. In the PBL, they are tied for the most championships won in league history.

History

Harbour Centre hired Jorge Gallent as their head coach. With him leading the team, Harbour Centre won six straight championships.[1] They first won the 2006 Unity Cup and the 2006–2007 Silver Cup. Harbour Centre then changed its moniker to the Batang Pier and won four more titles.[2] In 2009, the franchise became known as the Oracle Residences Titans, as Romero retired the Harbour Centre name. They also hired a new coach, Glenn Capacio.[3] They then won the league's final championship that year, its seventh. This tied them with Magnolia Ice Cream / Instafood and Stag Pale Pilsen / Tanduay Gold for most championships in PBL history.[2]
