[[ MUNCH...MUNCH...MUNCH...MUNCH ]]

Last night, I heard on the news that Billy Cunningham will be resigning
as the couch of the Philadelphia 76ers.

Any one out in Netland heard any thing about this ?
Any comments on his resignition ?
Any speculations ?

Billy C. was a very good couch, although he was not an EXCELLECNT one.
All during the time when Billy was couching, the sixers had very good
chance at the NBA title, and Billy C.'s win/loss record was outstanding.
But most of it is due to the fact that Phily had its share of star players.
Plus, Sixers only won NBA championship only once (with a somewhat better
couching, they could've had at 3 or more in the last 7-10 years).

P.S.	It was unbelievable how the Celtics just KILLED the LAKERS yesterday.
	Celtics set an all time record for most points in a playoff game.
	Magic choked (as expected) and Parish just dominated Kareem.

 enjoy !!
