I couldn't watch



We went out to eat and taped the game in case Utah won.  I did watch to
see the last strip and shot by MJ.  He came through.  If I had watched the
whole game I would have blood pressure problems for sure.  The refs
are afraid to call all the fouls, because MJ and SP would be on the bench
too much.  And Harper is a first-rate mugger himself.

In game five, there was a 30 second swing where Chicago cut the
margin from seven to 2 because (l Pippen pushed Russell, got the
rebound and heaved it to that little blond brat for a three; (on the next
play he was elbowing Anderson ? when Stockton tried to pass it to him,
out of bounds to Chicago and a quick two.  And Utah survived that. 
Alas, they could have won at least one more with grit.  But in games 4
and 6, the coach allowed MJ twice to go one-on-one in the fading
seconds.  He scored every time.  A double team would have put the ball
in a jump shooter's hands.  Alas, alack.

And, Karl ended up with only one bad game--#2.  His two shots down
the stretch won game one.  If you win it at the end, your percentage
doesn't count, at least by MJ rules.

Enough.  On to the draft.  Gene

P.S.  Why is Gaston the bad guy, when Walker is asking for the moon?
I wouldn't mind a trade.  Do you think the me first, give me all the money
attitude is conducive to a winning team?  I have a hard time saying, "he's
a hold-up artist, but he's ours."
