Subject: Trade rumor:Benjamin for Rodman
Keywords: Seattle, Benjamin, Rodman
Organization: DSG, Stanford University, CA 94305, USA
Date: Mon, 16 Nov 92 20:02:26 GMT

Here's the latest trade rumor concerning the Sonics.  Doesn't it seem
that there were more trade rumors associated with the Sonics than any
other team this year?  Does the old adage, "Where's there's smoke, there's
fire?" apply here?

Seattle is supposed to be offering center Benoit Benjamin to Detroit for
Dennis Rodman.  Supposedly, coach Karl has already had several run ins with
Big Ben (shades of J.B. Carroll) and does not think Benjamin fits the
up-tempo Sonics style.  Meanwhile, Rodman's unhappiness with the Pistons
is well-known.

Benjamin would fit in well with the Pistons half-court game and is certainly
an improvement over Polynice.  This would be ironic because Polynice and
Benjamin were swapped in the Sonics-Clippers deal.
Rodman could certainly run with the Sonics, but who would get the minutes
at center with the Sonics?  Could Michael Cage start?  Is Rich King ready
to play more minutes?  Could Kemp slide over and spend more minutes at
center?

The trade would supposedly free up some money under the cap for the Sonics
to allow them to sign Doug Christie.

The one that always confused me was the Houston Rockets.  You might ask,
"John, why does that confuse you?" and I would have to say, "Well, although
it makes perfect sense given NASA headquarters and all, the Houston Rockets
were originally in San Diego.  Rockets?  San Diego?  I don't get it."  I'd
then sit back and wait for enlightenment, like perhaps that the name was
changed when they moved from San Diego to Houston.

Then again, there were also the Denver Rockets.

Simple, the Kings respect the Cavs as being one of the best teams in the
NBA, even without Dougherty, and they wanted to beat them, which they did,
another reason is the Kings don't have a lot of depth the in guard
position with Spud Webb being out for what appears to be a month or two,
due to a wrist injury (Randy Brown is pulling up the slack pretty well
though).  Another reason also is that Ritchmond at that time was a day
or two away from renegotiating a long term contract will the Kings, and
his agent was in the stands, so I'm sure he wanted to play as much as
possible.  I guess you could also say the Kings didn't want to lose this
game because it would make them 7-0 at home.  I assume that coach
Gary St. Jean knows exactly what is doing, especially once the Kings have the
best starting record at 4-2 that they have had since the 72-73 Kansas City
Kings.

Well, the Celtics look dead.   They have no big man and there strong
point SF/SG don't match up to those of say, Golden State (sad but true).
Lets ponder.  What if the Celitics continue at this pace.  Lets say they
lose 58 games (based on current record).  

1) What would have been their position in the 1992 draft had they had that
many loses last year?

2) Let's take that draft slot and apply it to the 1993 draft...  Who's out
there?

Yep, I need something to look forward too...  A great big man surrounded
by the X-man, Reggie, Brown, etc...

   Blue is getting a ton of slams and easy layups because of the Bucks
   strong defense and transition game. I've only seen them play twice this
   year, but it seems like their defense is hiding some deficencies in
   their offense. But hell, I'm not complaining. Tied for the fourth best
   record in basketball at 6-2 and only a game behind Da Bulls...shit I
   picked them to win 21 games in the prediciton contest. One of my happier
   misjudgments on the year so far. :)

Milwaukee, NewYork (!!available now!!) and Sacramento.  i know some of these
teams are losers eventually, but then we have fans of these kind of teams
like Jeffrey Creamer of the minnesota timberwolves (more interesting now!).

some of our Reporters are doubled up and would probably like to go back to
1 team.  so atlanta and new jersey may also be available.

if you are interested in this, please let us know at

         nbastats-admin@athena.mit.edu

and we will be glad to help you get started.  Reporters do have a bit of
stuff to do as the season gets underway, but once we are in the swing of
things, the effort is about 1/2 hour per home game of the team you are
covering.  it is best if you have access to a newspaper that prints out
everything in the boxscore from flagrant fouls to illegal defense warnings
to minutes played to turnovers - everything.  however if your paper has all
but just a couple, we can get by with our second line of defense.  the
resultant boxscores are posted here for the whole world to see.  in
addition, an archive of all of the TEMPLATEs is being kept at ftp.wustl.edu
in /doc/misc/nbastats/1993.  we expect to have software for processing these
TEMPLATEs in all manner of detail....

thanks for your considerations....

Hi,

In case you hadn't heard, Dennis Rodman of the Pistons who had been
complaining about injuries (despite doctors' claims to the contrary) has
been suspended without pay.  He'd apparently been moody and inconsistent
since Daly left the Pistons.  Look for him to re-join Daly with the New
Jersey Nets if things go his way ...

Jeez, is Barkley's honeymoon over already?!  Give the guy a break, it's
going to take him awhile to get used to the new team, not to mention the
team adjusting to its new coach.  Also, KJ can't be 100%.  Give them a few
months and see if they come together...

Oh, okay.  I was wrong...

I saw your post listing the two UNC teams with 5 players but I forget which
years you mentioned -- probably '83-84 (Perkins, Jordan, Daugherty, Kenny Smith,
Joe Wolf) and '86-87 (Kenny Smith, Joe Wolf, J.R. Reid, Scott Williams, Pete
Chilcutt).  I wanted to add that Dave Popson, occasional NBA 10-day contract man,
was also in the class with Smith and Wolf, making him the 6th member of those two
classes to make it to the NBA.  I don't believe he is currently on an NBA roster,
so he doesn't count for the question asked, but I didn't want him to be
forgotten.  He has spent some time on the Celtics and Heat benches, and probably
others.  I thought I heard that he might have been in the Celtics summer camp
this year.  Anyone know what he's doing now?

BTW, I think Chilcutt was a red-shirt during the '86-87 season.

And, no, I can't remember the names of all the '89-90 UNLV players, either.
That must have included Johnson, Augmon, and Anthony, right?  Ackles never
really made it into the NBA (the Heat never put Ackles on the roster, but
Popson did play for the Heat in one or two games).  Who am I forgetting?
