LA Clippers are ahead of LA Lakers in the Western Conference First Round 3-1, in a win predicted by a TV psychic. Bob is a believer in destiny now. After running up a $300 phone bill talking with a fortune teller he saw advertised on cable TV, his LA Clippers team managed to upset favored LA Lakers Bob-Andreas Helmle.

"It was crazy. I called her up, and she knew I was the LA Clippers coach. She saw the whole game before it happened. She told me we needed to build our game around Celaya, and that sure worked out well. She was telling me their entire gameplan, I couldn't take notes fast enough. She saw that Monroe was going to have a big day for LA Lakers, but not to worry about him and focus on the rest of the team. The best part was she told me at the end that it was destiny for us to win this game. Destiny."

Asked what he thought about Bob's experience, LA Lakers coach Andreas Helmle replied simply: "No comment".

LA Clippers was led by Celaya (25 points, 5 boards, 5 assists, 3 steals, 3 blocks), Lee (14 points, 10 assists, 2 steals), Kay (25 points, 2 assists). LA Lakers was led by Monroe (20 points, 24 boards, 3 assists, a block), Keeney (23 points), Miller (13 points, 1 assists, a steal, a block).
