Questions during the offseason: What are the Knicks going to do with Bill Cartwright?? Will he play power forward?? Can he keep up to McHale or Barkley or Buck Williams or Roundfield, the Easterns power forwards?? Will he be traded for Chris Mullin?? Is Michael Graham going back to Georgetown, as was reported in the D.C. papers, did he really grow to 6-11, or has he again been declared academically ineligible, as was reported in the NY Times? What are the Lakers doing to their outside shooters?? First they cut Bob McAdoo, then they waive Jamaal Wilkes. Then the get Maurice Lucas, a good shooter, but not in the same class as McAdoo or Wilkes. A.C. Green is impressive inside, but can he shoot outside?? What are the Pacers going to do with all of the frontcourt talent?? They have Herb Williams, Clark Kellog, Steve Stipanovich, Waymon Tisdale, and Bill Martin, all potentially good starting *forwards*, but who will play center?? And Quinn Buckner is not the answer at guard, even if Jerry Schisting (sp?) stays. Are the Cavs for real? Free, Whatley, West, Hinson, and Hot Rod Williams makes a great starting five. Doesn't anybody want Ray Williams? What happened with the Joe B Carrol situation? Will he play for the Warriors or will they trade him to the Bucks? {talcott,wjh12}!cdstar!star (J Quillard @ Cambridge Digital Systems) Bored with the Red Sox and Patriots again ... waiting for the Celts

I'm not sure what the Knicks plan on doing with Cartwright, but I believe that they intend to keep him at power forward. The S.F. Bay Area papers have reported that Mullin will definitely play for the Warriors this year. God knows they can use him. They can use ANYONE. A Cartwright homecoming may be in the works for a few years down the road, who knows. > What happened with the Joe B Carrol situation? Will he play for the > Warriors or will they trade him to the Bucks? My all time favorite center to ever play Italian basketball in the 1984 season will return to the Oakland Alameda County Coliseum Arena to play for the Warriors. He will NOT be traded to the Bucks for the 85-86 season, much to his and the Bucks' disappointment, but after that who knows. Personally, I don't know what they see in the guy. He's basically not a team player. He maintained a high scoring average by scoring 40 points in games that the Warriors would lose by 130-98 or something like that. And I used to dish out $10 to see the man play. Why did they get rid of Bernard? And World B.? and Gus Williams? and...(Don't answer, those are rhetorical questions. :-) ) -- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Whoever has the most things when they die, wins." -Unknown Jeff Gershengorn '88 ihnp4!dartvax!gersh Hinman Box 1772 Dartmouth College Hanover, New Hampshire 03755 Real World: 5 Fairway Drive San Rafael, CA 94901 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
