THE RICH KEEP GETTING RICHER
I f I know anything about basket­
ball at all, I know thia: every general
manager in the Pacific Division is
pulling their hair out at the roots. I f
there was any chance at keeping the
lakers from repeating as N BA king­
pins, it’ s gone now. Phoenix Suns’
general manager, Jerry Colangelo,
made a deal Sunday night to trade
former Portland TrailBlazer, Maurice
I.ucas, to the W orld Champion Los
Angeles lakers.
The la ke rs shortchanged the Suns
by sending two future second-round
draft choices to the Suns for ’ ’The
Enforcer.” To make room for the
hard-playing big man, the Lakers de­
cided to let Bob M cAdoo go. By re­
leasing M cA dix), the Lakers can pay
l.ukc and maybe still have enough left
over to offer A .C . Green a decent
contract.
The Suns have made a few ques­
tionable trades in the last few years
that have weakened that franchise
considerably. Dennis Johnson for
Rick Robey was almost hysterical.
Maurice to the champs o f your own
division « hysterical
Champion Portland TrailBla/ers and
he w ill add mightily to the board ef­
forts o f the Lakers, la k e r General
Manager Jerry West made the deal to
use Luke as a backup center on
defense and a power forward on
offense.
How does this trade affect the
TrailBlazcrs? It doesn’t really The
TrailBlazcrs only play for playoff
spots anyway so it's no big deal other
than Luke w ill still be lowering the
hammer six times during the season.

N A TIO N A L FOOTBALL
LEAGUE RULE CHANG E
Among the 1985 season’s 12 new
regulations is one that grants defen­
sive players an increased right to bat­
tle receivers for the ball in passing sit­
uations and another that prohibits a
team from changing the color o f hand
and arm coverings from week to
week.
“ There w ill be fewer calls on some­
thing that shouldn't have been called
anyway," said Jack Reader, assistant
supervisor o f officiating for the N FL,
o f the clarification on pass interfer­
ence rulings. “ We wanted to allow
incidental contact without calling
fouls ”
Under the new rule, interference
can only be called when a defender
clearly and intentionally restricts a re­
ceiver’s attempt to catch the ball. So
long as the defender is himself legiti­
mately trying to get to the ball, there
is no penalty for any contact that
results.
"T h e new interpretation is that
when both offense and defense are
playing the ball, we w ill not have in­
terference called," Reader said.
"They (the owners| wanted to make
sure the foul was there and not put the
defense at a disadvantage like we have
been almost every tim e."
Reader gets no argument from the
league's defensive backs. “ Finally,
it's nice to know, as a defensive back,
we can play football in its truest
sense," Seattle's A ll Pro safety Kenny
Easley said.
San Francisco defensive back
Dwight Hicks, another veteran with a
reputation for a physical brand o f
pass defense, said the rule change
might dictate a significant rethinking
o f aerial strategy.
“ The new rule is going to give the
defensive backs more leeway playing
the b a ll," Hicks said. " I think we
may also sec a reverse in the trend
toward small, fast receivers. I think
those little guys are going to have a
tough t i m e . "
