PHILADELPHIA 89, SAN JOSE 66 (Slaughter Rule Enforced)
PHOBIA CRUSH AMIGOS
SAN JOSE -- The Philadelphia Phobia (now 1-1) concluded its two-game cross-over obligation with the West by stunning the home team San Jose Fighting Amigos (now 1-1) 89-66 in a game they controlled from start to finish.
Philly shot a smoking 71.2 percent from the floor while playing above-average defense that resulted in below 50 percent shooting for San Jose.
The win for Philadelphia puts them in third place in the East and the loss does the same for San Jose in the West.
The Phobia will have to play at least this good when they host mighty Dallas in the next bracket.
