Pennsylvania 182 vs Atlanta 212(W)

Pennsylvania's playoff hopes just about ended with this loss. For Pennsylvania to stay alive they would need some key teams to lose. Atlanta played without Derrick Coleman and Fortson stepped in nicely. Karl Malone poured in 54 points trying to keep Pennsylvania alive but Shaq wasnt as caring putting in 28.

Victoria 216(W) vs Calgary 125

Victoria clinches a playoff berth with the win. All Victoria had to do was win one of the last three games and they would be in so they decide to get the win in the first game and get ready for playoffs. Calgary so decimated by injuries are just happy to be able to field a team of 9.
