Not that anybody expected today's Denver-Charlotte matchup to be terribly competitive, but this was almost comical. The 108-83 final score was enough of a headline, but the game wasn't even as close as that score indicated as Denver coach Bob played it conservative most of the game to avoid running up the score too much. "Boy, it's great to see our offense click like that," he said. "It's like a gourmet restaurant - everything on the menu looked good." Said losing coach Bob, "We were just outclassed, no question. We don't have the talent they do, and we weren't as prepared coming in. And it was definitely classy of Bob to pull his key players halfway through the game."

Denver was led by Strong (21 points, 6 boards, 1 assists, 2 steals), Moore (12 points, 18 boards, 1 assists), Hamilton (10 points, 11 boards, 3 assists, a block). Charlotte was led by Homen (16 points, 11 boards, 1 assists, a steal, 2 blocks), Dubose (15 points, 5 boards, 2 assists, 2 steals), Robinson (16 points, 0 assists, 2 blocks).
