Predicting NBA dtraflt picks not easy
By JOHN VONCANNON
; Stan Writer
Yes, it is the middle of June, and the
;NBA playoffs are still not finished. As
;soon as a new champion is crowned, all
the general managers must start think
ing about the next season. The NBA
;Draft will be at the Javits Convention
;Center in New York on June 27.
; This draft does not have the big names
;of former years. Most scouts are ex
pecting a Wall Street atmosphere with
;plenty of wheeling and dealing between
;teams. Predicting which team will take
;which player becomes Mission Impos
sible. However, a few brave souls
;(known as sports writers) will still at
tempt it. So here goes this year's stab at
;the NBA Draft:
; 1. New Jersey - Although the Nets
;have been throwing around the idea of
;taking Dennis Scott, Derrick Coleman
;(Syracuse) is the best player in the draft
;to build a team around. Most scouts
;compare Coleman to Karl Malone be
cause both are great scorers and
rebounders. Most importantly, Coleman
will bring a winning attitude to the
hapless Nets organization.
2. Seattle - Scott is tough to pass up,
but the Supersonics don't need him.
Look for Seattle to fill the point guard
Ispot with Gary Payton (Oregon St.).
Payton's good court vision and quick
hands make him the top point guard in
this year's draft.
3. Miami - Great Scott!! He's still
here. Miami will thank the powers above
and snatch him. Glen Rice and Scott
will give the Heat the scariest three
Ipoint shooting duo in the league.
4. Orlando - The Magic desperately

need a center, which is why they will
gamble on Dwayne Schintzius, Florida's
much-troubled post-man. Expect
Schintzius to take a couple of years to
develop, but his talent cannot be ques
tioned. 5. Charlotte - Bogues cannot survive
another season like the last one. The
Hornets will take Rumeal Robinson
4r
(Michigan), the next best point guard.
Known for clutch performances,
Robinson could help the Hornets win
some of those close ones.
6. Minnesota - The biggest need here
is points. Therefore, look for the Wolves
to take Lionel Simmons, LaSalle's high
scoring forward. Simmons will fit right
in with Minnesota's hardworking,
scrappy team.
7. Sacramento - Same as Orlando.
The Kings will take Pervis Ellisons's
former teammate, Felton Spencer. He
brings much-needed muscle and high
potential to this thin team.
8. L.A. Clippers - With Ron Harper
expected out until January, the Clippers
need Chris Jackson (LSU) to bolster
their outside arsenal. Although a risky
pick, Jackson does have the skill to
amaze a dead Clippers' crowd.
9. Dallas - In the first of three first
round picks, the Mavericks will fill the
scoring void left by Adrian Dantley
with Minnesota's Willie Burton. Burton
can play both shooting guard and small
forward, a valuable combination in the
NBA these days.
1 0. Golden State - The Warriors need
height, but no beanpoles (aka Manute
Bol). The best big man at this pick is
Terry Mills (Michigan). Mills will de
velop quickly into a solid power forward.
OIF lEWEPJTi
tion will be on view until August 12
at the North Carolina Museum of Art
in Raleigh. There will be a reception

1 1 . Atlanta - The Hawks must have a
real shooting guard. Bo Kimble (Loyala
Marymount) fits the bill perfectly.
Kimble might be one of the few players
who will have to slow down his game in
the NBA.
12. Houston - The Rockets (like al
ways) need a point guard. They might
have a good one in Texas' Travis Mays.
13. Dallas - If this pick isn't traded,
the Mavericks will get Kendall Gill, a
solid all-around guard from Illinois.
14 L.A. Clippers - This will bring
Alec Kessler to la-la land, and may
knock former UNC player, Joe Wolf,
down to the CBA.
1 5. Denver - The Nuggets will begin
to better a horrible drafting record by
taking Xavier forward Tyrone Hill.
1 6. Milwaukee - With a great showing
in the NBA mini-camps, Alaa
Abdelnabey goes to the Bucks. This
rapidly-improving forward from Duke
will blossom in the pros.
17. New. York - Loy Vaught
(Michigan) will, bring some much
needed defense to the forward slot for
the Knicks.
1 8. Dallas - If the Mavs still have this
pick, expect them to take Duane
Causwell (Temple), a center with some
raw talent that will take a while to
develop.
19. Boston - The Celtics will nab
Maryland's Jerrod Mustaf to back-up
an aging frontline. Mustaf will be needed
to contribute soon though.
20. Minnesota - Scoring still remains
a major need. Gerald Glass,
Mississippi's leading scorer for the past
two years, fills the hole.

must for the Suns. Iowa's Les Jepsen
will be given plenty of time to learn
from Phoenix's veteran frontline.
22. Utah - Against Phoenix, outside
shooting was a glaring weakness.
Georgia Tech's Brian Oliver will fix
that in a hurry.
23. Chicago - Although the Bulls
really need a better center, they will
take Illinois' Stephen Bardo to provide
defensive support at the guard spots.
24. San Antonio - The Spurs hit the
fewest three-pointers. Look for Bimbo
Coles (Va. Tech) to double the number.
25. Portland - The Trail Blazers can
take the best player available. Marcus
Liberty (Illinois) will be a good one
down the road.
26. Detroit - With Vinnie Johnson
winding down his career, another mi
crowave needs to be ordered.
Michigan's Sean Higgins can shoot the
lights out at will.
27. L. A. Lakers -The backcourt needs
some help. The Lakers will take Dee
Brown, a virtual unknown out of Jack
sonville who can play both guard spots.
The second round will see some ACC
action. Watch for UNC's Scott Wil
liams, Clemson's Elden Campbell, and
Maryland's Tony Massenberg to be
picked. Duke ' s Phil Henderson and N.C.
State's Brian Howard will also get shots
via free agent camps.
Like last year's draft, this one cannot
be rated until several seasons have
passed. This draft will provide many
solid players, but few bonafide super
stars are available. Look for the 1990
draft to go down as average.

Ford to lead Celtics
instead off Coach K
From Associated Press reports
BOSTON The Boston Celtics
named Chris Ford their new coach
Wednesday, moving the long-time
assistant coach into the top spot. Team
officials described Ford as "a guy
who is truly a Celtic, a guy who has
paid his dues.
Ford told a news conference he
expected his tenure to be "a good
time."
He added, though, that it was "going
to take a lot of hard work and dedi
cation to get us back on top."
He said he wanted a team "that is
going to play with fire, passion,
emotion; that is going to have the
work ethic that is going to put us on
top."
Ford, the only coach retained after
Jimmy Rodgers was fired May 8, two
days after the Celtics were eliminated
from the NBA playoffs by the New
York Knicks, had been considered
the leading candidate.
But Dave Gavitt, named May 30 as
chief operating officer to handle bas
ketball operations with the Celtics,
had been in contact with Duke Uni
versity coach Mike Krzyzewski in
recent weeks concerning the job.
Krzyzewski informed Gavitt last
Thursday that he was withdrawing his
name from consideration to remain
with the Blue Devils.
Ford, who played 1 0 seasons in the
NBA for Detroit and Boston and who
Mayer, the top-scoring middie for
the Tar Heels, had 33 points with 24
goals and nine assists, while Huff, a
fifth-year senior, had 21 points on 19
goals and two assists.
There is still no word on a successor
to Willie Scroggs, who resigned his
post to concentrate on his increased
duties as Assistant Athletic Director
following the Tar Heels 21-10 loss to
Syracuse in the NCAA semifinals.
B The University has hired former
Pennsylvania volleyball coach Joe
Sagula to take over the head coaching
job for the Tar Heels.
UNC Athletic Director John
Swofford announced that Sagula will
replace Peggy Bradley-Doppes, who
resigned in February to take the head
coaching position at Michigan.

point shot in the NBA on Oct. 12,
1979, was traded to the Celtics Oct.
19, 1978 along with a draft selectien
for Earl Tatum. He was a member of
Boston's 1981 championship team.
He played one more season and
then joined the Celtics coaching staff
for the 1983-84 season, where he has
worked for K.C. Jones and Rodgers.
Ford, Detroit's second-round draft
pick out of Villanova in 1972, was a
member of championship teams in
1984 and 1986, joining K.C. Jones,
Bill Russell and Tommy Heinsohn to
be part of NBA titles in Boston as
both a player and coach. The latter
three were head coaches.
Ford, 41, would be the Celtics'
eleventh coach, following of Red
Auerbach, who coached the Celtics to
nine NBA championships before
moving to the front office after the
1 966 season, Russell, Heinsohn, Dave
Cowens, Bill Fitch and Rodgers.
Ford, who led the Celtics to four
victories in Rodgers' absence last
season, would coach some of the
players he either competed with or
against. The Celtics corps of aging
players include Larry Bird, Robert
Parish, and Kevin McHale, all mem
bers of the 1981 championship team.
Also on board is Jim Paxson, who

Dougherty were the only Tar Heel
baseball players chosen in the major
league draft. Mauer, UNC's shortstop,
was chosen by the L.A. Dodgers.
Dougherty, a pitcher, was drafted by the
Houston Astros. He decided not to play
and will become a graduate assistant to
UNC's baseball coach Mike Roberts.
