The Nuggets had trouble brunting Houston’s charges. Coach Doug Moe said. “We missed everything and they hit everything during those streaks they had,” Moe said. “We needed to move the ball and we didn’t do it. But when things aren’t going good things like that happen.” Olajuwon led a 12-0 Houston surge over a 2:55 span of the third quarter that broadened the Rockets’ six-point half time lead to 82-67 with 5:04 remaining in the quarter. It was Denver’s fourth straight loss and its seventh in eight games. Olajuwon, who also had 14 re bounds, scored Houston’s final eight points in the third period for a 92-82 Houston lead going into the final quarter.

(AP) — Roger Clemens, the 1986 American League Most Valuable Player and Cy Young Award winner, donned his Boston Red Sox’s uniform for the first time since the World Series Monday, determined “to prove my self again.” “There’s no doubt in my mind that I can pitch, but I don’t care who you are — you have to prove your self again,” Clemens said after the Red Sox’s first workout at Chain O’Lakes Park. “I’m ()-() just like everybody else,” said the big right-hander, who led the majors with a 24-4 record last season. “I’m a nobody. I have to prove myself again.” Brought along gradually last spring after right shoulder surgery on Aug. 30, 1985, Clemens became a sensation in just his second full year with the Red Sox. On April 29 in little Fenway Park in Boston, he set a major league re cord by striking out 20 batters in a 3- 1 victory over Seattle. He went on to win his first 14 decisions while pitch ing the Red Sox to their first pen nant in 11 years. “The first thing I’m going to try to do is fx? 1-0,” Clemens said. “Then, if I finish 5-5 with 15 no decisions and we win all 15, I’ll be happy because I’ll know I’ve kept my team in the game.” Clemens, only 24, said his right shoulder recently "tested out stronger than ever” at the University of Massachusetts Metlical Center. But, he said, he expects opposing hitters to lie gunning for him. “If I didn’t think this will lie a very, very tough year, I’d lx* kidding myself,” lie said. “This is going to lx* a hard year. “If you get Big League-itis, some one is going to sit on your butt.” Clemens said the disappointment of Boston’s loss to the New York Mets in the seven-game World Series last fall affected him for “about a week or 10 days." ‘Then I started thinking about this year,” he said. “We were the sixth different team to win our divi sion last year, so it seems it should be Cleveland’s turn this year. It’s a chal lenge for us, and we have to accept that challenge.” Clemens, who ran, participated in calisthenics and threw from the mound for 10 minutes in his first formal practice, said lie had b working out at high sdiool field if Tampa about 60 miles from Winn Haven. He reported on schedule i though he is Boston’s only umignd player. “That doesn’t bother me," Cb ens said. "I don’t care about tin numbers. That’s Mr. (Alan) Ite dricks' job. He handles things lilt that for me. He’ll lx herenextwi to talk to (General Manager) (airman." Clemens reportedly earnti slightly more than $300,000,ii ing incentive bonus money, last yet, but is ineligible to go to arbitral)) until next winter. The Red S< ix may renew his am tract for just about what they m this year, but Clemens said: “I think they’ll treat me very flit They know what I can do forth# and the way I live. I takealotd pride in the way kids look up tome.' Added Manager John McNi mara: “Roger Clemens is a very poise young man. He has a very positut attitude — plus a 95 to 97 m.p.h.[is ball.” A stho< Frida of Sc nual New Dr and 1 of f ceptt Cent live ' skill nizec supp •f A&M Instit urine Erl the ii E liel oil ma do dn AP Top 20 The Top Twenty teams in the Associated Press' college basketball poll with first-place votes in parentheses, total points based on 20-19-18-17-16-15-14-13-12-11-10-9-8-7-6-5-4- 3-2-1, record and last week's ranking: Record Pts Pvs 1.Nev.-Las Vegs (49) 28-1 1258 1 2.North Carolina (6) 25-2 1195 3 3,lndiana (9) 23-2 1179 2 4.DePaul 25-1 1062 4 S.Temple 28-2 991 5 6.Purdue 20-3 986 6 7,lowa 23-4 799 7 S.Georgetown 21-4 786 11 9,Pittsburgh 22-5 680 8 10-Alabama 21-4 673 12 HSyracuse 22-5 617 9 12.0klahoma 21-5 569 13 13,Clemson 24-3 561 10 14.lllinois 19-6 493 14 15.TCU 22-4 407 16 16.Kansas 21-7 373 15 17,Duke 21-6 179 17 18,Florida 21-7 160 18 19.New Orleans 22-3 96 - 20.Pravidence 18-6 70 19 University of New Orleans enters Top 20 for 1st time NEW ORLEANS (AP) — In just . bis second season at the University of New Orleans, Coach Benny Dees has combined a giddy-up offense with a gimme-that defense to pro duce the school’s first-ever appear ance in college basketball’s Top 20. New Orleans was ranked No. 19 in this week’s major college basket ball poll, well off the pace set by top- ranked Nevada-Las Vegas, but still a beady experience for a groiqi of newcomers, who were still learning each others’ first names when the season began. “This feels, probably, I letter than ever before, because of what we are and where we’ve come from,” Dees said. “I particularly like being in the Top 20 in the last weeks of the sea son. If we can stay there, it’s a great way to finish.” It could help produce the school’s first appearance in NCAA tourna ment play as a major college. New Orleans lost the Division II championship by two points in 1975, the school's last season in the smaller division. Dees replaced Don Smith as head coach last season, kept three of Smith’s players, signed four from Tulane after that school abandoned men’s basketball, and added a cou ple of his own recruits to go 16-12. This year, he signed the nation’s No. 1 junior college prospect, Ledell Eackles, and added center Damon Vance, a transfer from Louisiana State University. New Orleans was 22-3 after a 73-72 victory at Fan American Saturday. Dees turns Eackles loose off the running game, and he’s averaging 24 points a game. The man-to-man defense comes up with an average of 22 turnovers a game, and an average of just under 17 of those are steals.
