A rock-solid Atlanta team routed Orlando, 127-89. "It sure felt good out there," said today's star, Buzzo. "We basically accomplished what we wanted to do on offense and defense. Coach's game plan worked perfectly."

Orlando coach Bob was disappointed with the game, but not completely surprised. "Atlanta is a great team, and we knew going in that if they played their best we didn't stand a chance. The only way we were going to win was if we got some breaks, and we didn't. But it was a great learning experience; they showed us our weaknesses."

Atlanta was led by Buzzo (10 points, 18 boards, 3 assists), Hill (17 points, 2 assists, 2 blocks), Mcnair (14 points, 5 boards, 1 assists, 4 blocks). Orlando was led by Buchanan (21 points), Wright (14 points, a steal, a block), Vancourt (9 points, 3 assists, 2 blocks).
