Finals--Game 1
Philadelphia 87, Dallas 77
Phobia 29 43 68 87
Dallas 17 41 54 77
DALLAS -- Hall of Famer Cam Bodia of the Philadelphia Phobia had what was possibly the best quarter any MBA player ever had to start game 1 of the MBA finals, spurring the defending champs to a 87-77 victory and a 1-0 series advantage in the best of five championship series.
Bodia, a 6-6 small forward playing his 9th season, scored 15 points, grabbed five rebounds, had two steals and two assists in sparking his team to a 29-17 first-quarter lead. Eight-year veteran Frank Pettis chipped in with 10- first-quarter points for Philly.
The win by Philadelphia ended the Demons 10-game winning streak, but not before regular-season MVP Joey Two-Tones of the Dallas scored a game-high 26 points and broke a playoff record for steals in one game by swiping 6 balls. The previous record of five was shared by Dan Mann of Milwaukee in Season 11 and Streetcar Johnny Masterson with the same number in season 18.
