Brooklyn lead the Eastern Conference First Round 3-2, with an impressive 97-82 win over Philadelphia. "I think a lot of people have overlooked us," said Coach Bob after the game. "Maybe with this game and a few more quality wins, the rest of the league will start to take notice." Philadelphia certainly took notice today, as losing coach Bob said "We really expected to put on a better game than this. But Brooklyn were just too good."

Brooklyn was led by Jeanlouis (21 points, 9 boards, 3 assists, a steal, a block), Owens (27 points, 1 assists, 3 blocks), Goltz (21 points).
