Edmonton 152 vs Jersey 196(W)

Jersey got back on track tonight against Edmonton. Jersey's starters were awesome tonight with none of them going under 20 points. For Edmonton John Starks who has continued to knock on the door for a starting role got the starting role with Gill sitting out the game.

Toronto 138 vs Maine 212(W)

Maine gets all around play to lay the smack down on Toronto. Maine who went out and scouted for some of the best forwards around, got big production from J. R. Reid and Othella Harrington. Backcourt of Steve Smith and Stephon Marbury exploded for 70 points. Toronto had horrible production from the center spot of Austin, and Rick Fox coming in and playing for Cliff Robinson simply unimpressed.

Vermont 153(W) vs Endor 152

Endor is off its game, and pays the price with a L. Only one Endor starter came to play, Garnett and he couldnt get the job done. In a game that had horrible starting performances came down to the wire as Vermont pulled out the 1 point win. Backup guard Derek Anderson came into to play for struggling Nick Van Exel, and hit some big free throws down the stretch to seal the deal.

Oakland 171 vs Forest City 211(W)

The whipping boys gets whipped again. Division rival Forest City took it to Oakland tonight. The front court looked great, but the backcourt was horrible. Finley and Ward combined for only 26 fantasy points. During the game Shawn Kemp was barking, get us some guard help get us some damn guard help. After the game GM Jon vowed to do that. Forest City almost had another MVP of the night, having Glenn Robinson miss the mark by 1.

New Age 150(W) vs Calgary 143

Calgary almost pulled out a big time upset. Problem was Jayson Williams just couldnt get on track against Antoine Walker. Williams is playing poorly as of late, and new comer Kevin Willis continues to impress, and is pressing for a starting nod. Will Willis get a starting role? Only time will tell. Penny Hardaway had his second unimpressive game in a row.
