Spurs waiting

OAKLAND, CaUf. (AP) — For
the Golden State Warriors, win

stopping San Antonio center Da

a question of regaining their
drive.

Coach's philosophy kills 12th Man
Their best-of-5 NBA Western
Conference playoff series began
with San Antonio wearing down
Golden State in Game 1. But it
changed course when the War
riors" relatively small lineup
stopped the bigger Spurs in
Game 2.
With the series tied 1-1 and
moving to Oakland, the Spurs
can't play the pivotal third game
the way they did Game 2, coach
Larry Brown said.
"Some of the guys had great
efforts, but I don't think as a
team it was real good," Brown
said. "Certainly not for a playoff
game and for a team trying to
win an NBA championship.
"We've just got to play like
this is the most important thing
in our lives."
Spurs starting forward Sean
Elliott, who suffered a broken
nose in the second period Satur
day, is expected to wear a pro
tective face guard and play
Wednesday.
Elliott's absence in the second
half hurt. Brown said. Chris
Mullin, the player Elliott was
guarding, scored 21 of his 27
points in the second half after El
liott left the game.
"Losing Sean took 15 points
away from us, plus it kills you
with flexibility because he was
out and (David) Wingate
couldn't play," Brown said.

EDITOR:
Over the past few weeks I have heard many opinions about
th
the issue of the 12th Man Kickoff Squad, and 1 thought 1 would
state my own.
As a former member of the squad, I can give some insight on
the problems that led to this action by R.C. Slocum.
First, the kickoff scheme set up by the coaches promoted a
conservative style of play. Contrary to popular belief, the play
ers are not "kamikazies" that run down the field in reckless
abandon. Each player has a responsibility to do a particular job,
Under Slocum's system, each player was responsible for an
"alley" an the field five yards wide. This can be contrasted by
the system under Jackie Sherill where four players had the re
sponsibility of going to the ball carrier, and tne rest of the play
ers were "alley guys." The system under Sherill promoted ag
gressive play which the 12th man was famous for. This point
can be illustrated by comparing the statistics between the last
year Sherill coached and the first year Slocum coached. Theav
erage jumped from 14.7 yards per kick to 22.1 yards per kick
and this was a team that returned most of ‘the lettermen and
starters from the previous year.
The second reason for the demise of the squad was the atti
hide of the coaches toward non-scholarship players. We were
treated like "step-children" compared to the other players. The
coaches talked down to us like we were scared, stupid people
that lacked athletic ability. In reality we were smart, educated
college students who had played many years of high school
football. Many of the players had played for smaller colleges
We were never given the confidence we needed to perform at
the level of competition necessary to be successful.
I enjoyed playing football for Texas A&M, but was disap
d when I was v\
pointed when l was watching the Texas game and Holiday Bowl
from the stands instead of the playing field. It saddens me to see
another great tradition at Texas A&M fade away.
