Unseld gives
Bullets hope
for playoffs
LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — The
.Washington Bullets, whose playoff
chances seemed remote 10 games
ago, have a new look under their
new coach, Wes Unseld.
The Bullets have won eight of
their 10 games for Unseld after
opening the season 8-19 under Ke
vin Loughery. Unseld took over as
the head coach after owner Abe Pol-
lin fired Lougheryjan. 3.
In less than 3‘A weeks, Unseld has
taken this team that couldn’t shoot,
couldn’t rebound and couldn’t win
at home and turned it into a playoff
contender.
“Looking back on it, no, I didn’t
think it would be this quick,” Unseld
said after the Bullets defeated the
Philadelphia 76ers 118-117 Monday
night in overtime.
“We still have a long way to go,”
he added.
Unseld said the club was “deve
loping new confidence” after the
Bullets defeated Golden State 115-
91 last Friday for their sixth of seven
one-sided victories under his com
mand.

Blackman expects to see limited

but Coach John MacLeod isn’t
sure how long Blackman can play
or whether he will start.
whether Blackman will start or
come off the bench.
“That (playing time) will de
pend on how the team is doing,
how well I’m playing and what
Coach (John) MacLeod wants to
do,” Blackman said Monday fo-
lowing his first full practice after
spraining a ligament in his left
knee.
MacLeod said he will know
more later in the week, including
Blackman’s court time will be
limited because he will play for
the first time in 24 days. He has
missed nine games since his in
jury during a Jan. 4 game against
the Houston Rockets.
“Even when he comes back, his
conditioning won’t be ideal, but it
will be better than today,” Mac
Leod said. “It will be good to have
him back. He’s recovered very
well.”
Team physician Dr. Pat Evans
has said Blackman will be able to

King sank a twisting, fadeaway
jumper at the buzzer to force the

76ers for the third time in six nights.

Arizona adds a new dimension
to offense with beefed-up center
TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Anthony
Cook of Arizona takes a lot of kid
ding about his 6-foot-9, 190-pound
frame. His roommate says he is so
skinny that he rents a shadow.
Nobody jokes about Cook’s contri
bution to the success of the top-
ranked, 18-1 Wildcats.
There was a time when the 7-foot,
250-pound wide-bodies, the monster
marauders of the driving lane, had
an easy time making life difficult for
skinny guys like Cook.
Over the spring, summer and fall,
Cook, whose teammates call him
A.C.,” hit the weight room in ear
nest, and it paid off.
The junior has been Arizona’s
leading rebounder at 7.5 per game,
while scoring at a 12.1-point clip,
and his 69.8 percent field goal shoot
ing in Pacific-10 Conference games
has him tied for the lead.
Cook, who set a school record of
69 blocks last season, has 36 this year
— including 17 in Arizona’s eight
league games — ranking him second
in the conference.
“He’s unbelievable on defense.
He’s so quick, he can jump so well,”
guard Steve Kerr says.“People talk
about dominant centers and how, if
only we had a dominant center, we
could do this or that.
“As far as I’m concerned, An
thony is a dominant center.”
Coach Lute Olson said Cook is
“the guy that changes a lot of shots. I
think people are always aware of
where he is” — both inside and on
the perimeter.
“In the game against the big,
tough jumpers, he’s usually the guy
that can go up and get (rebounds)
with anybody.”
On a team that can boast of star
forward Sean Elliott and Kerr, an
all-Pac-10 performer two years ago
sidelined last season by injury, Cook
is “probably the unsung hero of the
squad,” Olson said.
