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.

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 .
