BEATING
THE GUN
BY BOX BROWER
ST. LOUIS (ANP)—The National
Basketball Association is blessed
with playmakers, even if the cele
brated Bob Cousy has departed to
the college coaching ranks.
Oscar Robertson any way had
jest about succeeded Cousy as
the top man on the totem pole
tn assists. And tee versatile
Cincinnati Royals' star, consid
ered by many the best in the
gam* for all-around skill. Is
leading tee league in the de
partment this season.
Veteran Guy Rodgers, of San
Francisco Warriors, is regarded as
second to the "Big O".
But one of the most polished
playmakers is Len Wilkens, die
southpaw backliner with the St.
Louis Hawks. As quarterback of
iiil 4UdW JU, lie lb UviUfc CicUilCU
with being largely responsible for
the team's surge In trying to regain
supremacy from the Los Angeles
Lakers in the NBAs western di
vision. ,
As the NBA schedule reached tee
midpoint, Wilkena had notched 193
scoring passes in 89 games for a
4.9 average- Os course, this is more
than 50 per cent under Robertson's
10.2 average on 40 in 408 games.
But there is an explanation for
the bulge. Wilkens 1 teammate, Ric
hie Guerin, has 183 in 41 games
for a 4.5 average. In tee case of
the Royals, Robertson is tee domi
nant feeder. In the ceae of the
Hawks. Wilkens not only geta help
from Guerin, but he receives it
from s pair of ten teammates,
Charlie Vaughn and John Barnhill.
Wilkens, named the most valua
ble player in National Invitational
Tournament four year* ago, is in
his third full season with the
Hawks. His first was in the 1980-81
season, the next campaign he only
saw parttime service since he wss
in the army. Last season he re
turned to gain regular status. But
he was a bit confused under his j
new coach. Harry Gallatin. j
“Before I went into the army.” |
he said, “the Hawks had changed |
their offense to give tee guards
more chance to score. When Harpr
took over the dub, however, he
felt that our best bet was to play
to the big men up front whenever
possible. Because I missed the ex
hibition games, wasn't quite sure
what I should do.”
Bet tee Hawks’ beckltns de
velsped so rapidly ted OslUttn
decided to tee let guards play a
different role In the attack. 8*
Wilkins is the third leading
IM rer an the Hawks’ with 488
points for a ISJ average as tea
■easse ii ter ad its final half.
On# of the deft ball handler's
ardent supporters Is his wife, Mari
lyn. like Len a native New Yorker.
They have a six-month-old daugh-
doesn’t pretend teat
she married the bsckcourt so* be
cause of his athletic ability.
