game to conclude a game begun
Nov. 30.
Prior to their regular season
game Wednesday, the two teams
must play three seconds of an
earlier game that does not yet
exist in the record books because
of a mis-ruling over a fake free
throw by Laker Norm Nixon.
The game ended in a double
overtime victory for the Lakers.
But the Spurs protested a call on
a fake free throw by Laker
Norm Nixon.
Leading 116-113 with four
seconds left, the Spurs fouled
Nixon, who made his first free
shot, cutting the lead to 116-114.
But Nixon pumped on the
second free shot, sending both
teams into the lane in anticipa
tion of a rebound.
The referees called a double
lane foul and a jump ball. The
Lakers won the jump, scored
and tied the game 116-116. By
the end of double overtime, the
Lakers took the game 137-132.
“He (Nixon) never released
the ball,” said Spurs’ spokesman
Wayne Witt. “That’s the key (to
our protest). The referee should
have blown the whistle, lined ev
erybody up and had him shoot
(the second free throw).”
NBA league officials agreed,
so tonight, with three seconds on
the clock, Nixon will come to the
foul line with the score 116-114
to shoot that second free throw.
Hawks closer to pla
with victory over Sixer
United Press International
Making the playoffs can be a
very trying experience.
“We’re playing for big stakes
now and this game went down to
the final seconds,” said Atlanta
Coach Kevin Loughery after the
Hawks downed Philadelphia,
102-97, Tuesday night to move a
step closer to the playoffs. “It
was a draining, emotional win,
but we’ve (still) got to get ready
for Kansas City tomorrow.”
Dominique Wilkins scored 26
points and Mike Glenn sank two
free throws in the final seconds
to lift Atlanta in the game in
which 10 technical fouls were
called and Philadelphia Coach
Billy Cunningham was ejected.
Atlanta is now in the fifth
playoff spot in the NBA’s East
ern Conference. The Hawks,
42-38, are a half-game ahead of
New York, which has three
games remaining, and a full
game ahead of Washington,
with four games left.
“I would say it was the most
important (game of the sea
son),” Wilkins said. ”lt was one
that determined whether we
would be able to make the play
offs.”
Billy Cunningham was
angered when it was implied star
center Moses Malone, who was
sidelined with tendonitis of the
right knee, did not play because
of Cunningham’s friendship
with Loughery.
“That is questioning my in
tegrity and the 76ers,’" Cun
ningham said.
