Alabama 153 vs Maine 168(W)

Maine ends out the year with a win over Alabama. Maine's score was sub par, the score that is seen when Steve Smith misses the game with injury which he had.

Edmonton 192(W) vs Jersey 157

It wasnt supposed to happen this way. Jersey was one of the best teams in the league and going for best record in the league. Then injury came often. The division title came down to the last game of the year, and Edmonton came out of nowhere in the season to attain the division title.

Endor 173(W) vs SW 152

Endor keeps the winning ways in tact as they get ready for prime time play. Endor finally knows who its first round opponent is, Jersey, who they were battling for home court advantage throughout the conference playoffs for a while. How fast things change.

Vermont 187(W) vs Harlem 144

Vermont gets ready for Edmonton with a nice win over Harlem. Nick Van Exel went off tonight with 56 points, while Van Horn chipped in a stellar 41 points. Glen Rice put up 31 points for Harlem tonight, maybe a glimpse of what he can do next season.

Chi-Town 185 vs Forest City 196(W)

These two teams will face each other in round 1. And they got a little extra practice for the final game of the season, and boy was it a close one. Chi-Town showed Forest City that this playoff series will go down to the wire as Chi-Town is ready to play.

Oakland 230(W) vs Dublin 124

Oakland ends out the year on a great note putting up 230 points. Proving to them selves and others that Oakland will be a force for next year. Had one of Oakland's premire guards started over Sherman Douglas they had a chance for the league single game record. Oakland's front court was dominating, outscoring the WHOLE Dublin team 129-124!

Calgary 164(W) vs Pennsylvania 137

Calgary got one of their injured players back for the final game, and it helped lead them to the win. Calgary struggled with injuries down the stretch have things to look forward to next year when everyone is healthy again. Pennsylvania played yet again without Stackhouse showing their lack of forward depth.

Victoria 177 vs Atlanta 207(W)



Featured Game


Atlanta finishes out with the same record as Victoria, but Victoria still wins the
division because of a lead in head to head play of 3-2. Both teams ended up with
identical records, and I think this series will be the most interesting series of
round 1.
