Charlotte lead the Eastern Conference First Round 1-0, making some believers with a big win over Orlando. "I know all the headlines are going to say 'Charlotte upset Orlando', but we knew going in that we could play with these guys. It's no upset in my book," said Charlotte coach Bob. "We've had some trouble early on, but the team's finally getting it together. Just look at Murphy - he was unstoppable." Today's win certainly helps get their message out, but Charlotte still have some work ahead of them. Charlotte was led by Murphy (8 points, 16 boards, 2 assists, a steal), Scroggins (14 points, 3 steals, 3 blocks), Neal (9 points, 9 assists). Orlando was led by Buchanan (21 points, a steal), Brigmon (13 points, 7 boards, 0 assists), Hayes (14 points).
