Hey, I like Ike!

[peter delevett <pdelevett@amcity.com>]

Also remember this about Ike Austin: in Chuck Daley's system, Nick Anderson
posts up and the center hangs out around the top of the key. That works fine
if you're a jump shooter like Doleac or like Bill Laimbeer was, but Ike was
built for the paint.

(BTW, it's funny how this list works. Hart asks, 'Any takers for Ike Austin?'
and then three people write, "Let's do the deal if there is one." Like the
song said, 'How do rumors get started ...')
