Any fan of professional basketball who missed Sunday’s opening con frontation between the two Cin derella teams in the finals--the Washington Bullets and the Seattle SuperSonics—truly missed a treat. If anyone thought that the cham pionship series would be less than entertaining once Portland and Philadelphia had been eliminated, the Sonics and the Bullets did much to dispel that notion Sunday after noon. Indeed, semifinal action should have put to rest any such idea. Even with Dick Motta’s Bullets leading by a seeming insurmounta ble margin of 19 points late in the third period, the game to that point was rarely a lull between commer cials.

No, a team would be hard pressed to play more physical than the Bul lets and the Sixers did in their semi final series. Even one of the players’ wives got into a fight during Game 3 of that series. Sunday’s opener was even slightly reminiscent of Southwest Confer ence basketball. In the closing minutes of the third quarter, with shades of what Hous ton Cougar coach Guy Lewis did with Kenny Williams in Hofheinz Pavillion against Texas A&M last February, Wilkens went to his THESE PRICES 600D THURS FRI & SAT MAY 25-26-27 MEMORIAL DAY <s Patao PIGGLY WIGGLY NOW YOU t AN OWN A SUPIKH SI I Ol Kensington Imported StaHordshirt* English Dinnerware THIS WEEKS SPECIAl PINNER PLATE jTCMINtOM • witfi evwy <3 00 pwdtttt each 69 • SL OPEN STOCK GUARANTEED — DISHWASHER.
