Great analysis.  Now how about this:

Dallas is clearly the dregs of the league.  Dallas has two wins
against Central teams, one win against a Pacific team, and none
against the Atlantic or Midwest.

Ergo, the Atlantic and Midwest are the class of the NBA.  QED.

Minnesota looked a hell of a lot better than their record last night.
I couldn't beleive their shooting in the first quarter, particularly
Person.  Dumas started out on him, but Majerle Dan "Best player in the
NBA" Majerle played him the rest of the game (and he only had 8 more
points in 3 quarters + OT).  5 minutes into the first quarter with
the Suns down something like 16-3, Westphal replaced *every* starter.
No time-out, you're all out of here.  The guys got some balls (and a
pretty deep bench).

Patrick has been playing on a very bad knee for about six weeks,
now. It has not been given much attention in the media, because the
guy is still a plus for the team.

It is almost healed, now, so watch for Ewing to become more mobile
and aggressive on offence.

Subject: blatant bad reffing
Organization: University of Illinois at Urbana
Date: Mon, 25 Jan 1993 16:21:36 GMT

you know, i never thought a game could be as bad as the Illinois - Minnesota
game in 1989-90 in Minnesota in terms of the reffing.  that game was the most
blatant display of home biased reffing i have ever seen.

well, yesterday's Bulls - Spurs game came pretty damn close.  especially down
the stretch.  i know the Spurs are a good team and they impressed me with the
way they played in the first half.  but, of course, the Bulls fought back and
made it a close game.  now, with the game tied and about a minute left, 
Johnson is racing the ball down the court with B.J. right along side of him.
Johnson then proceeds to change his direction INTO B.J. and they slightly
bump each other.  Johnson retains possesion, in fact, he isn't even thrown off
balance or anything.  This kind of contact happened all game with nothing 
called.  BUT, here the ref makes the call.  that was a BULL SHIT call (no
pun intended).  so he gets and makes the free throws.  on the ensuing play,
Jordan is knifing across the lane, gets TRIPPED by Robinson, falls while 
throwing up a shot, and NO FOUL IS CALLED.  because of the nature of the shot
and the all-game-long illegal defense of the spurs, a player supposedly-off-
the-ball blockes the shot and the Spurs get possession.  Then, in the Spurs
frontcourt, the Bulls have no intention to foul and Pippen is guarding Ellis
who is at a standing dribble outside the arc.  Pippen swipes for the ball,
makes LIGHT CONTACT at the most, Ellis retains possession and isn't even 
hindered by this, yet the refs, being quick to the whistle on this end all
game, CALL A FOUL.  in my opinion, that was the game.  through all that, the 
Bulls still had a chance to tie the game on some awesome defense by Pippen.
Jordan had a good look at the hoop and just missed.  that shot was probably
a smart one too, because if he would have gone to the lane, he would definitely
have gotten fouled in a way that he would not have made a shot, but the refs
would not have called it.

oh well, what's past is prologue.  i just felt like whining.  i was bored 
with the Blazers - Jazz game.  I'm sure i'll be hearing from some of you
very soon.  later!

Why should Detlef Schrempf be ab all star? In if he should go as a guard,
then he should have better statistics than any guard that would be left
be left behind. Same thing if he was a forwrd...

Good guess.. not Manute Bol.  The blocker IS a former sixer, though.
The Sixers' oppenents were the Lakers I believe.

I expoect that both Jackson and Christie will be dealt just before the
draft. Neither are worth much this year, having been off the court for so
long, and having missed camp. It would take too long for them to learn a
team's game to be useful to any team aside from the big losers (Dallas,
Minnesota, etc.). Rather, expect deals that have to do with the '93 draft.
So we won't know for sure in 32 days necessarily. Seattle may sign Christie
the day before the draft if I'm not mistaken, and this might just be
possible in his case, as he hasn't sworn not to play with the Sonics. In any
case, there are 2 hot rookie prospects just waiting to play ball.

Comments:

The East starters seem to be settled.  The closest race for a starting slot
in the East is for the second guard position, where Jeff Hornacek leads Mark
Price by 45000 votes.  In the West, Barkley, Drexler, and Robinson are in,
but the races for the second guard and forward positions are heated.  Chris
Mullin leads Karl Malone by only 6000 votes, while John Stockton has pulled
ahead of Tim Hardaway by 2500 votes.

Making their first appearances in the top-10 lists were Dennis Scott,
Hot-Rod Williams, Derrick McKey, and Walt Williams.  Kendall Gill is back
after a one-update absence.

I wasn't trying to show the jokes were funny, I was trying to show
they weren't as you put it "totally-fucking baseless" (sorry if it's
an imprecise quote), and I have shown that this claim is just plain
wrong.

What do the Warriors and students on the semester system have in

*Ahem.*  I'm a Blazer hater as much as the next guy, but let's be
journalistically responsible, please.

Nobody has been "connected with... sexual abuse."  First of all,
there are only allegations.  No charges have even been filed yet.

Secondly, the allegations are not of "sexual abuse," but of "sexual
misconduct."  Nobody has been accused of violence, coercion, or abuse
of any kind.  If any crime was committed, it was in having sexual
relations with underage partners.

Now, let's not go casting any aspersions until we have some more
facts, okay?  This is r.s.b.p., not "A Current Affair."

I can't believe I missed another very significant one from the LA
area-- A.C. Green will be a FA at the end of this season.

However, I would guess he's more interested in staying with the
Lakers than Manning or Harper is in staying with the Clippers.

I might be mistaken but I really don't think that Baker is a center, from 
what I have read he is more of a forward type, might even play small
forward.
