Sandercock had 44 points today, 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 Charlotte team managed to upset favored Detroit Bob-David Smith.

"It was crazy. I called her up, and she knew I was the Charlotte coach. She saw the whole game before it happened. She told me we needed to build our game around Sandercock, and that sure worked out well. She was telling me their entire gameplan, I couldn't take notes fast enough. She saw that Degraff was going to have a big day for Detroit, 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, Detroit coach David Smith replied simply: "No comment".

Charlotte was led by Sandercock (44 points, 2 steals), Horn (9 points), Homen (29 points, 0 assists, 2 blocks). Detroit was led by Degraff (27 points, a steal, 2 blocks), Henderson (27 points), Day (10 points, 8 boards, 3 assists).

With today's win, Charlotte improve to 1-2 and 1-0 at home. They hold at #5 in the Southeast and improve to #11 overall in the Eastern Conference. Detroit stand at 3-1. They stay at #1 in the Central and remain at #1 overall in the Eastern Conference.
