Bruised Nuggets to test
luck against SA tonight
United Press International
Injuries did little to deter the
Philadelphia 76ers from taking
:he first two games of their East
ern Conference playoff series
igainst the New York Knicks.
Now, the Denver Nuggets,
down 2-0 to the San Antonio
Spurs in their Western Confer
ence series, hope to emulate the
76ers.
The 76ers, despite injuries to
VIoses Malone and Andrew
Toney, were able to beat the
Knicks twice in Philadelphia and
now the Nuggets are facing the
prospects of playing without
Alex English, the league’s lead
ing scorer, and center Dan Issel.
English sat out the second
game of the series Wednesday
night, and Issel left the game in
the fourth period with a knee
injury. X-rays at a Denver hos
pital Thursday showed no struc
tural damage to Issel’s knee, but
doctors said there was a strained
kneecap that made it doubtful

he would play tonight in Game 3
at Denver.
English had treatment on his
strained left ankle Thursday,
but was listed as questionable for
the third game.
“Hopefully we can get at least
one of them back for part of the
game,” a Nuggets’ spokesman
said. “I fit is at all humanly possi
ble, Issel will make it. You get
the feeling Dan is indestructible
because he misses so few games.
But he has missed some.”
In other matchups tonight,
Los Angeles is at Portland look :
ing to take its third straight from
the Trail Blazers and Milwaukee
is at Boston hoping to take a 2-0
lead over the Celtics. Saturday,
Philadelphia is at New York for
Game 3 of their series.
Denver guard T.R. Dunn says
his team must forget about the
two losses to the Spurs.
“The big thing is not to tell
yourself, ‘Oh, my God, we’re two
down,” Dunn said. “We know it’s
not a cakewalk, but hopefully.
Congratulations Seniors!

we can go back home and win a

For San Antonio, point guard
Johnny Moore has been a big
factor in the playoffs. Moore set
a playoff record with 20 assists
and added 26 points Wednesday
night in leading the Spurs to a
126-109 triumph. He has scored
50 points, collected 37 assists
and had only one turnover in
the first two games of the best-
of-seven series.
In the 76ers-Knicks series,
Maurice Cheeks had 26 points
and four steals as the 76ers beat
New York, 98-91, Wednesday
night. The Knicks, who led by as
many as 20 points in the third
period, scored just 32 points in
the second half.
“Maurice seemed to be every
where,” Philadelphia Coach Bil
ly Cunningham said.
Milwaukee’s Bob Lanier, who
had 21 points and 10 rebounds,
and Sidney Moncrief, who had
22 points, did the most damage
as the Bucks embarrassed the
Celtics in Boston Garden, 116-
95, Wednesday night.
Lanier hit on 10-of-12 from
the floor and got 16 points in the
first half, which ended with Mil
waukee ahead, 54-48. A 10-2
run early in the third quarter,
with Lanier scoring four points,
buried Boston for good.
“This was just one of those
abnormal days,” said Lanier,
who hit on 10-of-12 shots from
the floor. “Even at 34, you have
abnormal days.”
The Trail Blazers, who post
ed a 31-10 mark at home, are
hoping a Memorial Coliseum
sellout crowd of 12,666 will help
slow down the Lakers. Los
Angeles center Kareem Abdul-
Jabbar has been the dominant
figure in the series.

JOHANNESBURG, South
Africa — Promoters are trying
to salvage the Davey Moore-
Roberto Duran World Boxing
Association junior mid
dleweight title bout scheduled
for May 27.
The status of the bout was
jeopardized after the cofeature,
a matchup between WBA light
weight champion Ray “Boom
Boom” Mancini and Kenny
Bogner, was postponed due to a
fractured collar bone suffered
by Mancini while sparring.
The injury occured Wednes
day night, forcing at least a 4 l /2-
month postponement of his title
defense at Sun City,
Bophuthatswana.
As an added feature on the
program, Frank Sinatra was
scheduled to perform a 30-
minute concert, then do ring
side commentary for television
during both bouts.
Sol Kerzner, chairman of
Southern Sun Property, the co
promoter with Bob Arum of
Top Rank, Inc., said Sinatra
would not perform but the card
was not canceled.
Kerzner said he was hopeful
negotiations could be completed
witn representatives of Moore
and Duran to put on their title
fight on May 27 without being
shown on a pay-per-view basis.
If those negotiations fall
through, Kerzner said he would
bring back both title fights in
October.
He said there was also a possi
bility Bogner would be matched
against a local fighter and a deci
sion on the fate of the card
would be announced within 48
hours.
Mancini said he would fly
back to the United States
tonight.
The WBA lightweight cham
pion was into tne first round of
sparring with junior welter
weight Teddy Hatfield when the
ifere some

thai ran the

students with a serious side, but who like to have a
good time, too.
