I believe the key to win at least one game against Bulls
is going to be Joe Dumars.  If he could contain Jordan
without loosing the shooting touch then we could expect
a close series. (At least close games.)  Isiah must be
the PG for the entire series leaving Joe to be the shooting
guard.  If he could use the first round practice games
to improve his shooting beyond .500 the Pistons will be
in a very good shape when they meet Bulls in the EC semi 
finals.  

When you remove the ref. factor that was prominent in the last
years series, I believe Rodman can easily stop Pippen.
If Zeke and all other Pistons stay injury free then the
rest of the Bulls wouldn't be a much of a trouble.

If Joe can go over, say .600, hey then we can even think 
about FINALS.

When Dr. J went from the Nets to the Sixers, he was referred to as the
"Six Million Dollar Man" because he was to be paid $3 million (over some
period of time --- there weren't any players making $3 million a year
back then) and the Nets were to get $3 million.

So, my neighbor and I are arguing over Duckworth as center, and he says
that Paul Allen is loaded and should just buy Hakeem from the Rockets.
I say that the Blazers can't do this, he says that they can, since the
money wouldn't be going to Hakeem, it would be going to the Rockets.
Since it's not going to a player, it shouldn't count against the cap.

So, what's the verdict?  Could the Lakers scrape together $40 or $50
million and buy the rights to the Shaq?

	Sorry. All non-playoff teams are entered in the Lottery on a weighted
basis. The team with the worst record gets 11 ping-pong balls, 2nd worst gets
10 balls, and so on. The lottery teams with the best record gets only one ball
for the lottery. Then they draw balls for the first 3 positions in the draft.
After the top 3 positions are chosen, the remain lottery teams draft in inverse
order of their regular season record.

	So the Lakers, if they don't make the playoffs, will have a (very) small
chance at drafting in the top 3 positions. And cows *might* fly! :-)

Bird is currently, including this season, as follows:

24.29ppg, 10.004 rpg, and 6.35apg.  
He is shooting 49.6% FG%, and 88.6% FT%.  He is shooting 37.6% from 3 pt land.
He has also averaged 1.8 steals and .84 blocked shots per game.  These 
are career averages... So, with the likelihood of Bird not playing the
last 2 games, and this being his final year, he will apparantly be the
first one to ever accomplish this...

The lottery does indeed work forwards, i.e. first pick first, eleventh pick
eleventh.  And the worst teams get the most balls.  However, in order to ensure 
that desperate teams don't pick much later than their position dictates, they 
stop drawing ping-pong balls after the first three picks.  

Our "magic number" for getting that 11th ball is now down to 2.  That is, any
combination of 2 Wolves losses or Orlando/Dallas wins guarantees us worst
place.  Slim reward for a dismal season.

Subject: Sonics / Portland
Organization: John Fluke Mfg. Co., Inc., Everett, WA
Date: Mon, 13 Apr 1992 19:23:43 GMT

Ths Sonics lost to the 'Blazers Friday night in Portland.  Interesting
game - it broke up the Sonics win streak (which they restarted with a
blowout of the T'wolves on Sunday, yawn) but the Sonics played well.  The
game was contested right down to the end.  I'm mostly writing this
note to generate responses from some of the big Blazer fans (Orleck, et
all).

I thought Friday's game was poorly officiated.  Not so much because the
Blazers won it at the line in the fourth but because it seemed really
inconsistent - I didn't agree with what was called and I thought a lot
of other things should have been called.  Maybe my living room isn't
a very good perspective but still...

But I also think the Sonics need more respect if they're to get far in
the playoffs.  And by respect I mean calls by refs.  Three in particular
are: Buck sucks the ref in with bad acting and Shawn gets the offensive
foul, Robinson falls out of bounds but gets the call despite minimum
contact in going after a loose ball, and Pierce loses the ball out of
bounds amid lots of contact and only gets a T for his troubles
(admittedly he deserved the T for his delay of game but when Pierce
complains there is a reason).  It's not that any of these calls changed 
the game but they are indicative of respect Seattle isn't getting from
the refs.  In the playoffs those calls could make the difference.

Will the Sonics get the fifth spot?  As I write it's theirs but road
games against Phoenix and GS are still probable losses (OK, I'll be
a more loyal fan, the boys in green will split that pair) and I
know nothing of San Antonio's schedule.  But I'd rather have them
(Sonics) face Phoenix in the first round (I fear Hardaway more than
KJ although both are a little dinged up right now, I also fear both
Owens and Mullin more than Chambers and Hornacek; virtually all of
this fear is matchup related rather than objective skill level).  Of
course beating Phoenix would lead to Portland, a tougher row to how 
than Utah.  But perhaps Big Ben will be back by then; remember the
Sonics have put together this latest hot streak without his services.

As for Portland; they look beatable.  I honestly think a healthy McKey
would have made the difference Friday night (sure Glide wasn't 100%
but Benjamin [a better center than Duckworth] was at 0%).  When neither
Porter or Drexler is able to penetrate they look lost (the flip side is
that when they do they roll).  Most teams rebound with more fire in the
playoffs.  Portland absolutely depends on second chance points (a snide
aside would be that their first chance offense stinks); will they
get as many offensive rebounds in the playoffs?

And how about MacMillan?  If he'd played small forward all season I think
he'd be a shoo in for most improved.

I am sure they're gonna cover da Bulls as much as possible. The playoff
pairings are not set yet so we won't know until Monday which games Turner will
show. TNT is scheduled to show 26 NBA playoff games(mostly on weeknites
and weekend night games). Doubleheaders will definetely be part of
the coverage( eastern game at 8pm EDT followed by a western game at
10:30pm EDT). NBC will have doubleheaders both weekend afternoons.

Remaining regular season games on TNT this week :

Friday,May 17 8pmEDT Chicago at Atlanta

TNT televised 51 NBA games season.

Remaining regular season games on NBC this week :

Saturday,May 18 3:30pmEDT(12:30PDT) LA LAKERS at Portland

Sunday,May 19 3:30pmEDT(12:30PDT)  * - TBA

*- TO BE SELECTED FROM THESE 4 games below :
- Detroit at Chicago      ---
- Phoenix at Houston        |
- Utah at Phoenix           |---------ONLY GAME WILL TELEVISED THIS SUNDAY
- Seattle at Golden State ---

With 2 games this weekend,NBC has televised 24 regular season games this
year, the largest number of NBA games ever in the history of network TV.

In other TV news, a federal appeals court in Chicago has ruled that
NBA's limit on the number of games televised bt TV superstations(WTBS,
WGN) is an illegal restraint of trade. The 7th US Circuit Court of Appeals
ruled in favor of the Chicago Bulls and WGN-TV9(Tribune Co.).
 Under the agreement reached before Tuesday's decision, the limit was
increased to 30 games and will stay there through the 1992-1993 season.
The NBA originally planned to decrease the limit to 10.


The limit of games on the free TV(excludes any NBC games) is 41. The Celtics 
were on their road stattion,WFXT-TV25 38 times, on their home game outlet
SportsChannelNE(cable) 38 times,and exclusively on NBC 6 times(3 home and 3 away).
In addition,they were seen nationally on cable thru TNT(both home and
road) 11 times and on TBS playing the Hawks,3 times.
ALL 82 Celtics are games are on the radio- SportsRadio 590AM in Boston.

It would be cool to find out how other teams are covered in their
home markets. Please post about your favorite team and announcers.

I agree with Jordan's assessment of King. He said that when Stacy is in the game, they ought to call him a powerless forward. If it wasn't for Danny Ferry being picked ahead of him, he'd be a shoo in for the bust of that draft. Along with Randy White and JR Reid. Pervis Ellison and Sean Elliot are the only top picks that have made a contribution. Hardaway was the steal.

Their was discussion about a trade involving Keem + Buck Johnson or MadMax

They also mentioned that Houston should make the deal before the lottery
selection because if the Twolves get #1, they'll probably go for the Shaq.
As it stands, the Twolves get 11 balls.

I will keep yall posted, cause we get the gossip on the local sports show

For many of us who watched the games this week, especially the
chicago game it  was a good week to relax and grin at the
highly touted invincible team (ie. Chicago)ayed.
   I realize that a lot of people place the bulls up there with the
old greats, and they might be, but they have practically invited
people to make fun of them lately.ate.
   With the controversies of Jordan Rules,  Jordan's bookies turning
up with cement shoes and players' wives trying to set them on fire,
my wheels of sarcasm have been oiled.  Here are some of my favorite
observations of this year:
1.) Why doesn't Jordan get tendonitis or a sprained big toe  before
    playing Minnesota?
2.) Why does Will Perdue think he's good?
3.) How many people are going to say Horace Grant is an all star
because he can dunk after recieving a pass off a Jordan double team.
His shooting percentage in the Cleveland game took a nose dive
without Jordan feeding him for his quota of open dunks.
4.) John Paxson, is he really any better thanthat those two brothers
with close shaves.
