San Antonio holds off rally
for 120-116 win over Bucks
SAN ANTONIO (AP) —San An
tonio held off a rally led by former
Spur John Lucas to defeat the Mil
waukee Bucks 120-1 16 behind Alvin
Robertson’s 28 points Sunday af
ternoon for their fifth straight NBA
victory.
The Spurs, winners of seven of
their last eight, raised their record to
16-29 with the non-conference vic
tory. Milwaukee fell to 28-20.
San Antonio built a 16-point lead,
114-98, with eight minutes to go in
the fourth quarter. Then Lucas, a 6-
2 guard making his third comeback
from drug rehabilitation, scored 16
points in the fourth quarter.
Lucas finished the game with 20
points, 10 assists and three steals.
Milwaukee’s Terry Cummings led
all scorers with 32 points. He also
pulled down nine rebounds.
San Antonio put the game away
with its board work. The Spurs
hauled in 50 rebounds, compared to
Milwaukee’s 26.
Artis Gilmore grabbed 17 re
bounds to lead the Spurs in that cat
egory. Gilmore also added 10 points,
mostly on inside slams coming from
his five offensive rebounds.
San Antonio outshot Milwaukee
55.2 percent to 52.6 percent from
the field.
Milwaukee controlled the opening
tip, scored the first bucket of the
game and held the lead for the dura
tion of the first period. The Bucks
parlayed five steals into a 30-29 lead
at the end of the first quarter.
The Spurs took their first lead of
the game at the 10-minute mark of
the second quarter, 33-32 on a layup
by Mychal Thompson off a feed
from Larry Krystkowiak. San Anto
nio increased its lead to three points,
35-32, on an alley-oop pass from
Johnny Dawkins to Roberston.
But the Bucks stormed back be
hind Cummings. The 6-9 forward
nailed an eight-foot jump shot at
with 7:21 remaining of the second
quarter, giving Milwaukee a 38-37
lead.
However, the Spurs began a 12-2
run that gave them an eight-point
lead, 62-54 at the half.
Our boys were getting all the loose
balls and rebounds today,” Rob
ertson said. “It’s very important to

They b Horned Frogs started the second
hstart.’Bill of the Southwest Conference
7 poiri't basketball season just like they
finished the first half of the cam
paign — with a victory.
■ The 16th-ranked Horned
Frogs are 18-3, the best start in
the school’s history.
■ After posting an 8-0 record the
first of the conference season,
TCU defeated Arkansas 73-66

whom wore purple Horned Frog

<ed up yover Baylor dropped the Bears to
6-3 and a second-place tie with
Texas Tech. The Red Raiders
beat Houston 55-54 Saturday
night in overtime in Lubbock.
In another SWC game, Texas
rallied late to beat Rice, 70-69, in
Houston on Sunday afternoon.
TCU, the preseason favorite to
win the regular season
championship, still has some
work left. The Frogs play their
next two games on the road
against Baylor and Texas A&M.
The Frogs are at Baylor on
Wednesday night then travel to
College Station on Sunday to
meet the Aggies in a 2 p.m. re
gionally televised game.
TCU is trying to keep from cel
ebrating early.
“We know we have a three-
game lead and I guess you could
say we can afford to lose some
games,” Dixon said. “But that’s
not what we’re planning to do.”
TCU jumped to a 45-23 half
time lead and coasted home.
“We couldn’t play much better
than we played in the first half,”
TCU Coach Jim Killingsworth
said.
Arkansas Coach Nolan s Rich
ardson agreed.
“They just fiat out-hustled us
and out-played us,” Richardson
said. “They went after every re
bound and got it.”
There was a controversy at the
end of the Houston-Tech game.
Houston Coach Pat F'oster
charged to mid-court after Sean
Gay’s shot at the buzzer was ruled
good by referee Mike Tanco.
“That was strictly a no-gut
call,” Foster said. “He was going
to wave it off. Don’t ask me why
he did. This is as devastating a
loss as we could possibly have.”
It was the second year in a row
that Tech has beaten Houston in
Lubbock on a controversial call at
the buzzer.
SMU regained the form it
showed earlier in the year with
the victory in Waco.
“That’s the SMU team I ex
pected to play after they played
and almost beat North Carolina,”
Baylor Coach Gene Iba said.

keep this roll going, especially into
the All-Star break and thereafter. I
think the third quarter was the big
one for us as we were able to handle
the press and build a lead.”
Spurs’ coach Bob Weiss said the
Bucks “can really make you look like
you are struggling.”
“They take you out of what you
want to do,” Weiss said. “Larry
(Krystkowiak)and Mychal (Thomp
son) have been playing well lately
and Walter (Berry) had a really good
offensive game in the second half.
We’ve been doing a very good job on
the boards and playing aggressive
basketball.”
Don Nelson, the Bucks’ coach,
said his club had too many lapses on
defense.
“There were times when we
played out of control and had a lot
of defensive breakdowns,” Nelson
said. “I knew the Spurs were playing
well, and so did our team. The last
two games our rebounding has been
as bad as I’ve ever seen in my 11
years (coaching Milwaukee). We like
our guards to go to the boards, but
they didn’t do it today.”

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Kiki
