     Interesting, I would've expected the Blazers to have Strickland and
Porter share the PG duties, and have Elie or Tracy Murray play SG
to back up Porter.  But apparently they figure Rudd at PG is better
than Elie/Murray at SG?  I've thought Murray looked pretty decent in
his limited minutes, but apparently he isn't ready yet?  Or can't play
SG?

Actually, the Sonics are currently trying hard to trade Christie.
I would really be surprised if his rights aren't traded to somebody
before next year's draft.  

The Sonics never really offered Christie a reasonable offer.  Those of
you out there who have readily condemned Dallas' treatment of Jimmy
Jackson should also condemn the Sonics for their treatment of Christie.
They offered Christie a 4 year $2.9 million salary, which for a 17th
overall pick, was way out of line.  Players picked after him were
getting much bigger contracts.  

The story behind the Sonics low-ball offer to Christie is starting to
come out.  The Sonics could offer no more to Christie without passing
the salary cap, and the Sonics were adamant that they would not do so.
The reason for this is Benoit Benjamin.  Since last summer, the Sonics
have been trying to trade Benjamin with no takers.  Benjamin's current
salary is $3.2 million per year, which is by far the highest salary on the
team.  Considering that Benjamin is not starting and his minutes have
been declining, and Karl hates him (reminds him too much of J.B. Carroll),
the Sonics cannot justify keeping him.  The complicating factor is that
Benjamin's base salary for salary cap trade purposes is only about $1.3
million.  This means that if the Sonics go over the cap, they can only
receive another player in return who is making $1.3 million or less.
Obviously, they couldn't get good value under those circumstances.
If the Sonics stay under the cap, then they can receive players whose
combined salaries are the full $3.2 million.  Thus, it really behooves
the Sonics to stay under the cap.

Supposedly, the Sonics now have an offer on the table to Dallas:
Benoit Benjamin + Doug Christie for the rights to Jimmy Jackson.
Obviously, a bad trade for Dallas, but the Sonics figure that
Dallas may eventually be desparate enough to take it.

It probably is a very naive question but I don't understand	
how players are being traded. I just watch the games. So here we go,	
just some general questions: 
How does this "trade" process work? A team or the player initiates
the trade? When a player is traded, can he refuse? 
e.g. when Hornacek and the others were traded to the Philis, could
they say "No way, we are not going"?		

Or better yet, could some expert post the trade, transfer,
free agent conepts etc. etc. so I could appreciate the sport more.	

Thanks,

A comment on Most from the Left Coast.

Johnny, We Hardly Knew Ye. We never got to hear too much of him out here; 
Chick Hearn has spoken highly of him, and there was that allstar game a few years ago
that Hearn and Most did together - one of the most entertaining broadcasts
I've ever heard. And I've heard other bits; clips of Havlicek making
a steal to win a big game, or the steal by Bird from Isiah.......

One thing I must say though is that it seemed - and I've heard - that Most 
would very often dis the Smelltic's opposition. In '85, the year
of the Magic Johnson mini-skyhook, NBC (or whichever network was covering)
contrasted Hearn and Most by showing clips of Hearn's coverage of a brilliant
play by the Smelltics, and Most's coverage of Magic's miniskyhook with 2 seconds
left. Hearn went on and on about some great play that Bird made in his (Hearn's)
inimitable ebullient style, while Most's coverage of Magic's hook sounded like
Most had just been forced to drink castor oil.

Notwithstanding this difference in broadcasting style, I definitely feel
for all you Smelltic fans - I know how I'd be feeling right now if it were 
Chick who had died.

They really lost. The game was played *under* New York city in the
rat infested sewers. Meanwhile, in Chicago, cardboard cutouts of the
players were manipulated by Home Alone star Macaulay Culkin. Inspite
of his obvious Chicago bias, he wasn't tall enough to beat Stern in a
one on one game (itself played in Power Memorial HS in NYC). This
decided the fate of the of the Bulls and Johnny Most was resurrected
from the dead to do an impersonation of Byron "Iron Man" Scott, 
single handedly beating the Bulls into oblivion.

Ah, but not everyone benefits from having a great scorer around like Paxson does.
Remember why the Bulls couldn't beat the Pistons for all those years? Those now 
obsolete "Jordan Rules" where the Pistons would collapse on Jordan every time he
touched the ball. Why did it work? Because no one on the Bulls was able to take 
advantage of the open spots in the D and hit the uncontested jumper. How
did the Bulls finally get over the hump? The emergence of Paxson and his deadly
outside shooting. Obviously Paxson brought something to the Bulls that was 
absent in previous years. Maybe a lot of guys can do Paxson's job; but for whatever
reason, Paxson was the only one who could do it well enough to help the Bulls
to the title.

It is important to recognize that Jordan benefits from having Paxson around 
almost as much as Paxson benefits from Jordan. With Paxson bombing away 
from the outside, that's one less defender available to collapse on Jordan. 
Just ask the '91 Lakers whom Paxson bombed into oblivion.

Also Paxson must be able to do something else or else
the Bulls would still be playing Craig Hodges, the 2(?)-time NBA 3-pt shootout
winner. Hodges is about as pure an outside shot as you could get. Why didn't
Hodges look so good playing next to Jordan? Go figure.

The Warriors announced today that center Victor Alexander has broken
his nose in practice and will go on the 5 game IR list.  To take
his place, the Warriors will bring off the IR, forward Billy Owens,
who has missed a month with torn cartiliage in his knee.  While Owens'
last IR a week ago revealed that the knee has not completely healed,
doctors feel that Owens has little chance of further hurting the knee
if he comes back.  Additionally, Owens has been chafing at the bit, and
proclaimed himself ready to come back for a couple of weeks.

Owens should play in tommorrow night's Atlanta game, which coincidentally
may feature the return of Dominique Wilkins to the Hawk lineup.

The refs mistakenly awarded the ball to the Lakers (who were down by 2) with
1 FT left & 5 seconds left.  The lakers hit the shot to force OT.  

I was at the protest game.  They continued the game at the next Lakers/Spurs
game in SA at the point where Nixon was shooting the FT.  He had been 
practicing hitting the front of the rim to hope to get an offensive rebound.
Nixon completely missed the rim & it was Spurs ball.  WIth the ensuing fouls
& timeouts (this was pre 20 second TO),  the 5 seconds took 15 or 20
minutes to complete.

The Spurs also had the hemishere rocking from the first game & were able
to defeat the Lakers in the second.

This trade would never happen for a few of reasons, although you're
probably right that Seattle at this point is willing to settle for less
than equal value for Benjamin.

1) Don Nelson does not like Benjamin.  He has said many derogatory
   things about him in the past.

2) One of the reasons the Sonics want to trade Big Ben is that he
   is not fitting into their uptempo running game.  The Warriors also
    play that style.

3) The other reason the Sonics want to trade Benjamin is his $3.2 million
   per year contract.  The Warriors are currently $1.5 million over the
   salary cap, and would have to trade the Sonics players worth a
   combined $4.7 million to fit Benjamin onto their team.

Starting today, we can bet on NBA games in Ontario under the new
SportSelect/ProLine lottery.

The way it works is each game outcome is given specific odds.  You
must bet on between 3 and 6 games.

There are three different game outcomes:  Home win, Visitor win, Tie.
A tie is any game decided by 5 points or less.  So for a home win, the
home team must win by 6 or more points. Same for a visitor win.

I was wondering if anyone would have information like that around, or
barring that have complete final scores so I could go through myself
and find what the trend has been so far.

Hoping someone can help me lose less money,
Darryl  (darryl@cs.yorku.ca)
