Here is a breakdown of all National TV games on TNT and NBC for each NBA
team. The Celtics have the second highest number of NBC games trailing
the Bulls by 1. However,5 out of 6 are scheduled for the friendly Garden
and the lone away affair is against Miami. Chicago has only 2 NBC home games
at the Stadium and 5 on the road. The Shaq factor put Orlando
in Top10 for the most televised teams on the TNT schedule this season.
Also, 2 potential Orlando appearances on NBC are scheduled for Febraury
if they're contending at the time.

Andre Turner is playing in Italy this year. I thought during the 2nd half
of last season he played quite well ....he had been picked up by the Bullets
the day (before?) the season started (off waivers?) from Phl and hence 
got a very slow start with wash while Adams got off to a spectacular start
and when steadily downhill. One reason the Bullets let him go was the 
aquisition of B Price (mark's little bro) in the draft..the WPost recently
reported that the Bullets had hoped to get one of 3 big men who ended up
being taken just before the bullets pick.

Overton was placed on the IR with a bruised toe...what a serious sounding
injury    :-)

It had looked like they were going to do the reverse that is put Price on IR
....he had had a groin pull that caused him to miss a couple of exh games
but was able to practice this past week.

hope that helps

Organization: Georgia Institute of Technology


I'm doing this by memory, plus I didn't see or hear the Knicks game.


11/6 NEW YORK:  Loss, 94-106 (0-1) .  The Hawks presented a two-man game--
Dominique Wilkins with 30 points (Only 2 rebounds, though), and Kevin 
Willis (~27 points, 15 rebounds).  The rest of the team did a poor imitation 
of the Jordanaires.  Morlon Wiley struggled at point guard--he is not
starter-quality.  At one point the Hawks pulled within 85-82, and the
Knicks promptly made 7 of their next 9 shots.  The Knicks defense
stuffed the Hawks' offense.

11/7 at Chicago:  Win, 100-99 (1-1).  This was the Bulls home opener, and
the ring ceremony to boot.  The fans were pumped, the team was deflated,
as the Hawks looked like Showtime early, taking a 44-22 lead at one point. 
The lead was too big to lose, as the hawks struggled to a 100-99 victory.
Dominique Wilkins had 33 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists, and a big block
on Michael's potential game winning shot (Jordan was posting up Graham,
readying for a turnaround jumper, and Nique came from behind to block it,
forcing a jump ball, which he won with :01 left).  Mookie Blaylock looked
decent, as he got the ball to the open man on the break--I can assure you,
this is a sight rarely seen by Hawk fans.  The defense did a number on the
Bulls, clogging the lane, forcing a number of bad shots, and creating
a bunch of steals leading to breaks.  His Airness kept the Bulls in it,
with ~35 points.

Games this week:  at Houston, at San Antonio, at Dallas --the Texas Triangle.

Great news for us Wolvies fans. I thought the rap on him after the draft

I saw this interview a couple of days ago.  I'm not sure where it was, I
saw it very late at night, it may have been ESPN.  Anyway, the part of the 
interview that you are talking about started when the interviewer asked
Magic about his new book.  In it, he apparently described sexual encounters
with women in elevators, offices and with several women at once (six!).
The part that you describe was when Magic was talking about having sex 
with a woman in an office next to a board room.  Magic said that he didn't
want to have sex with her because of the proximity of the board room(full
of people), but that "she had that look" and told him that she didn't have
any panties on.  He said that he fulfilled her fantasy because that's what
Magic does.

I was disturbed by the whole interview because Magic was basically bragging
about these encounters, yet he tried to make it sound like he simply did
them in order to fulfill these women's fantasies.  The interviewer had to
press him to admit that sex with several women was actually *his* fantasy.

The rest of the interview wasn't much better since Magic started
complaining about how his career ended, saying things like, "John Wayne
would have gone out the way he wanted to."

Early in the interview, they recapped Magic's career with highlights from
games and film of him with his family.  Then they asked him about why he was
leaving the league.  I don't think that he answered the question, but he did
say that he was not gay.  He said that notion was ridiculous and "if Magic
was gay, everyone would know it."

Oh yeah, this interview was on one of the network, early morning news
shows, because after the interview, one of the newscasters, a woman,
was visibly shocked by the things that Magic had said.  I really don't 
think that Magic helped his image much.

Maxey isn't progressing at all.  The reason being he is sitting in the

have already cleared a roster spot for him on opening day, no IR.
Look forward to seeing him play.

I think you are confused.  Alnozo still hasn't signed with the Hornets.
He doesn't have *any* deal with them.

That's news to me.  Last I heard, the Hornets and Mourning didn't have
any contract and he wasn't playing.

Probably not.  And I doubt very much that an NBA team can write a check

Can someone post the TV schedule of the NoooooYork Knicks... How did

experts (actually two of them) have not picked the Knicks to reach the
final. One of them has picked Chicago (Staying at the peak level for 
3 yrs is hard if not impossible) and the other picked Cleveland, the
latter more puzzling of the two...!


With a master like Riley who is used to making teams overachieve, look
for them to win it all.


(Actually, but for Riley none of the present Knicks have reached the
finals)

I watched the Bulls-Pistons game last night, and it was
a yawner until the middle of the third quarter when
Isaiah Thomas went on a scoring tirade, completing 
the third quarter with an amazing three-point heave.
It was nip-and-tuck until the end, with the game going
into overtime.  At the end of overtime, with 4 seconds
remaining, Joe Dumars (I think) hit an incredible shot to
put Detroit up by one, and it looked like the Bulls were 
going to go down again at home.  But somehow, MJ got
the ball on the next play, and we've seen the results
before.  25 feet out and with a good look at the basket,
that's all Michael needed to hit the game-winning shot
for da Bulls.  He knew he had made it, as he was running 
up the court before the ball settled in the net.  Pretty
exciting, but just another day at the office for MJ.  The
Bulls are now 3-1, but still don't look like the two-time
world champions yet.  I sure like that B.J. Armstrong, too.
He provides a lot of good passing and offense for the team.

around, I still want to play.  Just wait and see I guess...

<slaps self> For some reason, I associate Rice with the earlier teams...
Certainly he is the best player of the group....
