Brooklyn are ahead in the Eastern Conference Finals 3-1, after coming out on top in an exciting game against Milwaukee. "I'm sure it was a dream game for the fans, with the result in the balance down to the end," said Brooklyn coach Bob. "But these sorts of games give me gray hair."

Bob and his counterpart, Milwaukee coach Bob, brought out the best in their teams. "Not a lot of mistakes from either side," said Bob. "That's what I like to see. Of course, I'd like to see us win as well but only one team can do that. Brooklyn just played better, and we have to tip our hats to them."
