"We want to go slow and hope that in January he can play three times a week.’’ Walton, who has suffered a rash of foot injuries, was in San Diego Wednesday undergoing team physicals Podleski said he changed his mind in deciding to let Walton play. Walton had told the Clippers he would try to play one game a week during the 1982-83 season, but Podleski balked at that "Then I spent more time with Bill and we debated it," he said. "One day my wife saw how I was laboring over it and said, Are you thinking about Bill as a person or as a player?’ Spend Sunday and Monday with a few thousand of your closest friends.
