The Bullets had 5 00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:25,680 lost the NBA Finals in 1971 and dropped a little bit earlier in the Eastern Conference Finals 6 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:32,680 in 1972. They added all-star Elvin Hayes to the roster in 1973 in a trade with the Rockets, 7 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:37,200 which made a huge difference, skyrocketing the team to a 52-30 record in the regular 8 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:38,320 season. 9 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:42,960 New York was coached by Red Holtzman and they were a dominant team in the early 1970s.

Gene Shue doesn't want the New York. 189 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:05,480 So he's called nine out to talk it over with the team. 190 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:12,480 Gene has a coaching philosophy of when his team's got the ball he jumps up and gives them signals what he wants. 191 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:20,480 And this distracts the team it breaks their concentration and we've had a couple of passes go out of bounds because the players were looking at him instead of following the ball. 192 00:16:20,480 --> 00:16:28,480 Here's Jones seven for the next head of the key to Buescher played by Hayes off a pick comes Bradley Bradley cuts in the lane has an open jumper in his short. 193 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:32,480 This is an easy one the rebound goes to Shanier here's a three on two break. 194 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:46,480 Shanier his path is knocked away by the Buescher stolen by Reardon Reardon with a little jumper but the play was nullified by Richie Powers who will call out of bounds on the next and it will be bullet ball underneath their own basket. 195 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:54,480 Reardon will trigger it in from underneath his own hoop he does call the right baseline of Clark Clark shaking back move in the lane gets the pass underneath the uncelled he lays it up and in. 196 00:16:54,480 --> 00:17:08,480 Good pass by Clark who could not get free for the shot at seven to six

looking looking deep outside it goes to the Buescher. 203 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:56,480 The Buescher left of the lane with a left hand dribble stop the dribble outside Frazier in the lane and they're going to call a foul on uncelled. 204 00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:04,480 As he held out to Buescher foul on West that'll be his first foul and second on the team the next have not committed a foul as of yet. 205 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:17,480 Monroe deep right side holding the ball right baseline Bradley in the lane it goes to Reid back to Bradley in the lane the running right hander is up in the

He'll dribble it slowly as Monroe's all over him. 323 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:50,480 Alright Clark gets across the line. Clark now challenging Monroe. 324 00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,480 Going to the hoop. He lays it up and it is good. 325 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:57,480 Count the basket. He was fouled on the play. I believe the foul is on Reed. 326 00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,480 Clark got fouled. Taking Monroe to the hoop. He beat Monroe. 327 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:03,480 Reed came over and I believe Willis got the foul. 328 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:08,480 It was on Reed. His first. Clark will get two to make one. 329 00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:12,480 To try to complete the three point play. Clark has eight points in the game. 330 00:28:12,480 --> 00:28:15,480 Here's the foul shot by Archie. It is good. 331 00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,480 And now the Bullets have the largest lead of the game. Seven points. 26-19. 332 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,480 Monroe on the gala. Monroe forecourt. Monroe right of the lane. 333 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:25,480 Monroe now takes it to the right side. Dribbling the ball. Reed sets the pick. 334 00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:28,480 Monroe around the pick. Head of the key. Bradley cutting right back to Monroe. 335 00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:32,480 Monroe on the lane. Turn around. Jabber is around the rim and good. 336 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,480 Beautiful touch by Early. Rolled it in. 337 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,480 Now Unsell gets it into Chenier. And Chenier out of the back court to Clark. 338 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:44,480 Clark in forecourt. Left of the lane. Now Clark holds it up. 339 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,480 Looking for Shue for the set play. And here comes the play. 340 00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:51,480 Hayes sets the pick. Reardon to the baseline. And now the ball goes into Hayes' low post. 341 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,480 Hayes spins. He shoots. It is short. Rebound. Reardon. Reardon lays it up and out. 342 00:28:55,480 --> 00:29:00,480 Rebound is taken by DeBusha. Outlet pass Bradley. Ahead Monroe. 343 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:06,480 Monroe forecourt. Jumper Earl is good. 344 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:10,480 So Earl Monroe gets four straight points at 26-23. 345 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:13,480 It's a three point bullet lead with a minute and 55. 346 00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:18,480 Bullets calling a play. Clark outside. Around a Reardon pick. Right side. Head of the key. Reardon. 347 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:22,480 Reardon backs Bradley and back to Unsell. Unsell the running right hander. It's short. 348 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:32,480 Rebound is knocked out of bounds by the Bullets. It'll be New York ball. 349 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:37,480 Monroe out of the back court. He's hit two straight. A minute and 35 remaining in the quarter. 350 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,480 The next trail by three. Monroe deep right side. 351 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,480 Around a Reed pick. Earl head of the key. Bradley turn around jumper. It is no good. 352 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:51,480 Long rebound. Unsell. Wesley's outlet pass to Chenier and the Knicks are back again. 353 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,480 Bullets just can't run on the Knicks. The Knicks get back too quickly. 354 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:59,480 Mark of a good team. Clark crosses over. Gives it head of the key now to Unsell. 355 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:04,480 Unsell drives on Reed. Stops for the jumper. It's good. Count the basket. He was fouled by Reed. 356 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:09,480 Tough jumper by Wesley. Unsell. And Reed gets another foul. That's two on Reed. 357 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:14,480 The Knicks are over the limit. And Unsell gets two to make one. 358 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:20,480 Elvin Hayes has only two points in the ball game. He has the Bullets have 28 in the quarter. 359 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:29,480 Foul shot by West is good. Unsell now has seven points and the Bullets have a six point 29-23 lead with a minute 10 left. 360 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:34,480 Monroe out of the back court. Deep left side. Bill Bradley.

The turnaround jumper is good. 363 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,480 Earl Monroe is killing the Bullets. He's got ten points. 364 00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:55,480 And Monroe has kept the Knicks in this ball game. It's 29-25. 45 seconds left in the quarter. 365 00:30:55,480 --> 00:31:00,480 The Bullets lead it by four. Chenier a cross court pass to Clark deep outside. 366 00:31:00,480 --> 00:31:04,480 Now head of the key Unsell. Alone is Chenier. Chenier underneath for Hayes. It's stolen. 367 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:08,480 Pick up by Hayes. He lays it up and no good. The rebound is tapped over to Monroe. 368 00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:12,480 Monroe quickly in four court. Ahead to Bradley. Bradley running in the lane. 369 00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:18,480 Bradley left baseline underneath. He lays the pass off the read and they're going to call a foul on the Bullets. 370 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:23,480 And the Bullets will be over the limit. Bradley will get two shots. 371 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:31,480 Foul is on Mike Reardon. Two on Reardon. And Bradley will get one and one too. 372 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:40,480 A moment ago Frazier tried to steal the ball. Chenier was open. He got the ball. 373 00:31:40,480 --> 00:31:44,480 Bradley misses the first shot. And Chenier did not take the open shot. 374 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:48,480 His pass resulted in later the Bullets losing the ball. 375 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:53,480 First substitute of the game is in Johnny Tresman in it forward from Mike Reardon. 376 00:31:53,480 --> 00:32:01,480 Bradley's second foul shot is good. 29-26. The Bullets will play for one shot with 20 seconds left in the quarter. 377 00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:06,480 Bullets will be able to hold for the final shot. Chenier will bring it up. Played now by Frazier. 378 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:12,480 Chenier is on the deep left side. Now they set a double pick up on the left baseline. 379 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:18,480 Chenier backing Frazier in. Backing him in. Backing him in. Left baseline Chenier. 380 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:22,480 Chenier now turns for the long jumper. It is good. A tough shot at the buzzer. 381 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:27,480 Oh what a shot by Chenier. And that's the end of the first quarter with a score. 382 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:42,480 The Bullets 31, the Knicks 26. Now this from Sheep Revere. 383 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:04,480 You know almost any brewer can give you a good reason for switching to his beer. 384 00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:10,480 But Schaefer can give you the two best reasons of all. Your first glass is Schaefer and your second glass is Schaefer. 385 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:15,480 That's all it takes to convince you that Schaefer is unique. The one beer with flavor that doesn't fade. 386 00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:21,480 First to cross the cold to glass to last. That's all it takes to make you switch to Schaefer. 387 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:32,480 Schaefer is the one. One beer to have in your hand. My man one. 388 00:33:32,480 --> 00:33:37,480 14-E-W-A-B-Y. 389 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:42,480 This first quarter Knicks not doing any rebounding off the offensive board. 390 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:47,480 Monroe twice has been unable to stay with Clark who got away from him and scored. 391 00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:51,480 Bradley short on one shot long on another not hitting from the foul line. 392 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:55,480 He's the best foul shooter the Knicks have. And another thing is the Knicks are not picking up. 393 00:33:55,480 --> 00:34:01,480 They're not switching very well at all. So that Baltimore leads 31 to 26 at the end of the first quarter. 394 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:06,480 New York at one stage led by six. Baltimore one stage led by seven. 395 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:13,480 And Jerry Taylor points out a very interesting thing. In today's times there was a story about the psychology of getting a technical foul. 396 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:20,480 And how very often this inspires a team. Well since you've got the technical foul, Baltimore has played good basketball. 397 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,480 Jerry Lucas is now in the center. Here's John. 398 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:31,480 Okay Joe. Start of the second quarter. Bob Rakel, Richie Bowers, the referee. Reardon is in for Ansel. Lucas in for Reed. 399 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:36,480 Hayes to jump at center. The tip goes into the backcourt picked up by Archie Clark. 400 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:42,480 Clark will now bring it across the line. Played by Frazier. 401 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:47,480 Clark just dribbling the ball outside. Deep outside. Now cross court to Chenier on the left side. 402 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:52,480 Chenier goes to the left baseline. Spins with a jumper it is. Around the rim and out the rebound by Dave DeBusher. 403 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:59,480 Outlet pass Frazier. Clyde across the line. Clyde head of the key. Cuts to the deep right side. Still dribbling the ball. 404 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:05,480 Still dribbling the ball. Now he holds the dribble up. Ahead of the key now for Monroe. Deep right side Bradley. Behind a pick. 405 00:35:05,480 --> 00:35:10,480 Bradley gives it back to Monroe. Monroe head of the key. Behind a Lucas pick. Now low ball for Frazier. 406 00:35:10,480 --> 00:35:17,480 Frazier spins the baseline for the jumper. It is good. 407 00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:22,480 31-28. The Bulls lead the next by three. Chenier out of the backcourt played now by Monroe. 408 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:27,480 Chenier now spins away from Monroe. Give it back to Archie Clark. Cuts to the right side. Played by Monroe. 409 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:31,480 Archie in the lane for the turnaround jumper. It's short. A rebound taken off the floor by Frazier. 410 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:35,480 Frazier comes dribbling out of the backcourt. In the forecourt. Frazier head of the key. Cuts right. 411 00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:40,480 Underneath it goes to Monroe in the lane. Monroe spins. Fakes. Shoots. It is good. 412 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:48,480 Earl Monroe. And he has 12 points in the game. He's some ball player. Earl the pearl Monroe. 413 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:54,480 The Knicks have cut it now to one. It's 31-30. Scorbrood has. Yeah. Now they changed it. 414 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:59,480 Chenier forecourt. Left of the key. Holds the ball. Give it back to Mike Reardon. Reardon deep left side. 415 00:35:59,480 --> 00:36:04,480 Looking in for Hayes. He finds Hayes. Hayes left baseline. Spins with the jumper. It is rounded out. 416 00:36:04,480 --> 00:36:09,480 Rebound to Reardon. He lays it up. And no good. He missed an easy one. The rebound by Frazier. 417 00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:14,480 Frazier comes dribbling out of the backcourt. Frazier now. Cuts to the right side of the key. 418 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:20,480 Frazier now. Right side. Looking for the pass. Now finds underneath Monroe. He lays it up. 419 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:28,480 It is ghost headed by Chenier. The basket counts. And the Knicks have seconded. A 32-31 lead. 420 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:36,480 On baskets by Monroe. Monroe has 14 in the game. Clark brings it across the line. The Knicks lead by one. 421 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:44,480 32-31. Clark. Deep left side. Chenier. Clark. And now heads it ahead of the key. Clark cuts right. 422 00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:48,480 Picked up by DeBoucher. Clark. Right baseline. Gets the pass stolen by Frazier. 423 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:53,480 Frazier behind the backcourt. Monroe. Monroe in the lane. Jumper Earl. Nuts. 424 00:36:53,480 --> 00:37:01,480 And the Knicks have run off eight straight points at the beginning of the quarter. They lead by three. 425 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:06,480 Here's Clark. Crossing over. Deep left side. Goes to the left baseline. Looks in for Hayes. 426 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:12,480 Headed to the key. Goes for Chenier. Left baseline. Clark. Clark drives.

Porter is coming in for Baltimore. 443 00:38:59,480 --> 00:39:08,480 New York is not boxing out under either basket with the result that they're not getting a hold of the ball and Baltimore is. 444 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:16,480 But Baltimore is not doing some good ball handling on their offensive rebound and New York is getting it kind of on the second half. 445 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:21,480 So New York has spurred it as John pointed out. Picked up eight straight points in a row. 446 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:26,480 The lead Baltimore 34-31 with 9-12 to go and a half. John? 447 00:39:26,480 --> 00:39:31,480 Kevin Porter in the ballgame for Chenier and the little guy brings it four court. 448 00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:36,480 Kevin Porter head of the key. He penetrates very well. He is not a good shooter. 449 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:40,480 Porter now right of the key. Give it to Clark. Right baseline. Clark played by Memmerger. 450 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:44,480 Clark now trying to low post himself with Memmerger. Outside it goes to Hayes. 451 00:39:44,480 --> 00:39:49,480 Long jumper is way long. Rebound Frazier. Frazier fouls in the backcourt by Dresden. 452 00:39:49,480 --> 00:39:56,480 And it will be a two shot foul. 453 00:39:56,480 --> 00:40:05,480 That's Dresden's first foul. First on the team. Uncelled is in now for Dresden. 454 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:13,480 And Walt Klein Frazier goes the line. Of the next 34 points, Monroe has just less than half. He has 16 to the 34. 455 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:20,480 Foul shot by Frazier is good. Clyde has seven in the game. 456 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:24,480 And the Knicks now lead by four. 35-31. It's been a game of spurts today. 457 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:28,480 One team or another leading by six points or so. Foul shot Frazier.

It is short. 463 00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:57,480 Rebound in the lane. Memmerger. Memmerger comes out dribbling. Quickly he comes forecourt and holds up. 464 00:40:57,480 --> 00:41:00,480 Baltimore hasn't scored yet in three and a half minutes of this quarter. 465 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:05,480 Deep right side. Jackson. He throws the ball away. 466 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:13,480 Janier comes right back in the ball game now for Kevin. Well, let's see. Yeah, for Kevin Porter. 467 00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:18,480 So the Bullets get their starting team back in there quickly. 468 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:23,480 Gene Schue does not have much faith in his bench anyway. 469 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:28,480 Jackson is in the ball game by the way for Bradley and Al DeBusha is playing Reardon. 470 00:41:28,480 --> 00:41:32,480 Clark brings it across the line.

Has the neighborhood been invaded by flying saucers again? 484 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:28,480 No Dad. This time there's a weird man in our garage who's fooling around with our car. 485 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:29,480 Oh sure. 486 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,480 No really Dad.

I'm just trying to foul up your engine. 489 00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,480 Well you picked the wrong engine to fool around with. 490 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:47,480 This one used mobile detergent gasoline and Mobile hates dirt. 491 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:51,480 I'm not a dislikeable guy. I just like to cook up engines. 492 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:58,480 Mobile hates you because Mobile is dedicated to helping a car's performance by helping to keep engines clean. 493 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:02,480 And it stands for all the decent things that you're trying to ruin. 494 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:05,480 Maybe I just better pack up my dirt and leave. 495 00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:09,480 Gee Willikers Dad. How did you know he was Mr. Dirt? 496 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:13,480 I recognized him from all those mobile television commercials. 497 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:17,480 Life was a lot easier before I became a celebrity. 498 00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:32,480 Just to pass along some of the gossip to you we heard down in Baltimore that Gene Shue was not happy about the team moving to Largo Maryland which is a suburb of Washington or they'll be known as the Capitol Bullets. 499 00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:40,480 And the story was that he might not go with them that he likes Baltimore Maryland so much that's where he played. 500 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:42,480 That's where he lives and he's been there a long time. 501 00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:44,480 But the rumor is that he might go to Seattle. 502 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:48,480 Well we get back here in New York we find out that the rumors that he may go to the Nets. 503 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:49,480 So that's the latest gossip. 504 00:43:49,480

seconds. 507 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,480 It's a long time to go scoreless against team like the Knicks. 508 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,480 Foul shot Jackson is good. 509 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:07,480 This time the Knicks is the largest lead of six. 510 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:11,480 Jackson can make it second with his seven with his second foul shot. 511 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:13,480 Second foul on Unsell by the way and second on the team. 512 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,480 Foul shot Jackson is good. 513 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:19,480 So the Knicks now lead by seven points 38-31. 514 00:44:19,480

00:44:48,480 Frazier holding the ball right of the key underneath to Jackson. 529 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,480 Jackson fakes. 530 00:44:50,480 --> 00:44:52,480 A lefty hook Jackson is good. 531 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:56,480 And all of a sudden the Knicks now lead by nine points. 532 00:44:56,480 --> 00:45:00,480 As they run off 14 straight in the quarter. 533 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:02,480 Here's Chenier. 534 00:45:02,480 --> 00:45:03,480 Head of the key. 535 00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:04,480 The Knicks by nine. 536 00:45:04,480 --> 00:45:06,480 Chenier backs Frazier and spins for the

00:46:23,480 --> 00:46:24,480 It's one on two. 599 00:46:24,480 --> 00:46:25,480 Clark in the lane. 600 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:26,480 Busts through. 601 00:46:26,480 --> 00:46:27,480 He lays it up. 602 00:46:27,480 --> 00:46:28,480 And no good. 603 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:29,480 But they're going to get the foul outside. 604 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:30,480 It may be a non-shooting foul. 605 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:37,480 That's the third foul on Frazier. 606 00:46:37,480 --> 00:46:44,480 And it is a non-shooting foul. 607 00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:49,480 Monroe comes back in now for Frazier. 608 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:53,480 A non-shooting foul of Bullock now will bring the ball out on a far side at four court. 609 00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:54,480 And they do. 610 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:57,480 And Memminger immediately fouls Clark. 611 00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:02,480 Second on Memminger. 612 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:07,480 And that's the third team foul. 613 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:08,480 Oh, I see. 614 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:09,480 It's a two-shot foul. 615 00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:12,480 As they foul on Clark before the ball is brought in. 616 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:13,480 And so Clark goes in line. 617 00:47:13,480 --> 00:47:15,480 It's a two-shot foul. 618 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:16,480 Second on Memminger. 619 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:17,480 Third on the team. 620

Frazier with three fouls now. 624 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:26,480 And he's down the bench. 625 00:47:26,480 --> 00:47:27,480 Foul shot Archie is good. 626 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:28,480 And it is no good. 627 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,480 And it's rebounded by Jerry Lucas. 628 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:32,480 Excuse me. 629 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:33,480 42-36. 630 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:38,480 It's a six-point Nick League with five-fifty left and a half. 631 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:39,480 Memminger holds it up. 632 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:40,480 Cross court pass right in the key. 633 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:41,480 Monroe. 634 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:42,480 Monroe giving room. 635 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:43,480 Monroe starts his dribble. 636 00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:50,480 Now a loose ball foul away from the ball called on the Bullock. 637 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:51,480 And they're starting to call out a foul. 638 00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,480 And I'll tell you what Richie Powers is doing now. 639 00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:56,480 He's talking to both teams saying, relax fellas. 640 00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:57,480 It's getting very physical. 641 00:47:57,480 --> 00:47:59,480 And now what are they going to call? 642 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:01,480 It's a foul on somebody. 643 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:05,480 But I don't know who the foul is on. 644 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:07,480 Two is off the bench, gesticulating. 645 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:09,480 So is Holdman. 646 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:13,480 Because I think that they may have called that on themselves. 647 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:14,480 It's no foul at all. 648 00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:18,480 They just wanted to tell the players to stop the rough outs, I guess. 649 00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:20,480 In the lane, Jackson off his foot. 650 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:26,480 Jackson picks it up and he was fouled by Clark. 651 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:28,480 This now looks like a high school game. 652 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:30,480 Guys just held each other all over the place. 653 00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:32,480 A lot of loose balls. 654 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:33,480 Each team has three teams fouls. 655 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,480 Foul on Clark and the next inbound the ball. 656 00:48:36,480 --> 00:48:38,480 Monroe left to the key, holding the ball. 657 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,480 Left baseline board to Bush. 658 00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:41,480 Long jumper. 659 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:42,480 It's no good long. 660 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:43,480 Rebound to Clark. 661 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:44,480 Clark comes out running. 662 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,480 Clark in the lane. 663 00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:50,480 He got fouled, I believe, on the way to the hoop. 664 00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:52,480 The ball is kicked out of bounds.

He's back to play. 874 00:54:07,200 --> 00:54:08,200 The 130. 875 00:54:08,200 --> 00:54:09,200 He won. 876 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:12,140 from Mason and devils. 877 00:54:12,140 --> 00:54:14,600 He cannot find it. 878 00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:17,400 There he goes. 879 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:21,880 Audience Eamaz in at two. 880 00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:30,060 out of bounds and it will be Nick Ball but there is a timeout. There's a timeout. 881 00:54:30,060 --> 00:54:36,960 We'll just score the Nick. The Bullets 45 now this from Schaefer. 882 00:54:41,380 --> 00:54:47,760 These are the sounds of a friendly little game of basketball and that's not 883 00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:54,760 all. There are also the sounds of a thirst in the making. A more than one beer thirst. 884 00:54:54,760 --> 00:55:02,560 A thirst that's big enough for a couple of beers at least. A thirst that's big 885 00:55:02,560 --> 00:55:05,960 enough for Schaefer. 886 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:19,600 Schaefer has the unmatched quality of flavor that never fades. First cold frosty 887 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:40,560 glass to last. Schaefer is made for the more than one beer man. Always has been. Always will be. 888 00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:45,880 Back at Madison Square Garden with 47 seconds left in the first half. New York leading by 889 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:51,680 nine points. That equals their previous high lead. They're leading 54 to 45. New 890 00:55:51,680 --> 00:55:55,960 York playing fine basketball. Still having trouble on the rebound but their 891 00:55:55,960 --> 00:56:00,560 shooting has improved. Memmager has put on a couple of drives and put some moves 892 00:56:00,560 --> 00:56:05,720 on Archie Clark and is playing him better than Monroe is playing. So how can 893 00:56:05,720 --> 00:56:12,640 you ever tell? Slowly the Bullets coming back on court. It'll be New York's ball 894 00:56:12,640 --> 00:56:20,080 inbound. They can pick the lead up to 11 points. Okay John, 45 seconds left in the 895 00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:23,800 half. Memmager brings it across. This is the next largest lead and they now can make it 11 896 00:56:23,800 --> 00:56:28,200 with a hoop. Memmager holds it up left of the key. Looking for a pass. Looking for 897 00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:32,120 the pass. He can't find anyone. Now cross court Monroe. Right side rally back to 898 00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:35,400 Monroe on the weave. Monroe cutting in the lane. Monroe will back weird and then 899 00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:41,520 fake it and he's gone for walking. Earl shoveled his steps. 28 seconds. Now the 900 00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:45,840 Bullets could hold for one shot and it'd be but a four second discrepancy on the 901 00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:52,120 clock. Let's see if they do. Clark brings it in. I'm pretty sure they will. But we'll 902 00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:57,800 wait and see. Chenier brings it across. Played by Monroe. Chenier drilling the ball 903 00:56:57,800 --> 00:57:02,640 outside. Bullets gonna go for one. Seconds tick down. There's 15 seconds left. 11 on 904 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:08,240 the clock. Now 10 on the clock. Now 8 on the clock. Now 6 on the clock. Now 5 on 905 00:57:08,240 --> 00:57:12,080 the clock. Chenier backs Monroe in face. Gets the jumper up. It is no good. The 906 00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:16,000 rebound unsealed is no good at the buzzer. 907 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:22,080 The buzzer goes off. No shot by Monroe as he threw it in the hoop. And that's the end of the 908 00:57:22,080 --> 00:57:28,680 first half. With the score the Knicks 54, the Bullets 45. More Knicks basketball in 909 00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:35,360 just 60 seconds.

At the end of 919 00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:47,480 the first quarter Baltimore led New York 31 to 26. In the second quarter New York 920 00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:52,600 got 28 points while holding Baltimore to just half that total 14. So here at 921 00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:58,720 halftime it's New York 54 Baltimore 45. New York's biggest lead was nine points 922 00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:02,560 which it is right now they had nine point lead previously and Baltimore's 923 00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:07,080 biggest lead at one stage of the game was seven points. We have a first quarter 924 00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:14,400 score. Atlanta is leading Boston 31 to 26 at the end of the first quarter. We'll 925 00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:23,240 have you meet Tom Barnwell. Tom LeBom after this word from Volkswagen. 926 00:59:27,240 --> 00:59:32,520 What's a nice big interior like you doing in a place like this? That's what 927 00:59:32,520 --> 00:59:37,480 they're saying about the new 1973 Volkswagen Super Beetle. Inside it's the 928 00:59:37,480 --> 00:59:41,760 biggest beetle in history and more comfortable too. Lots of head and leg 929 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:46,520 room up front. Also up front contoured bucket seats with inertia type seatbelts. 930 00:59:46,520 --> 00:59:50,760 There's an improved ventilation system to ventilate and defog the windshield 931 00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:55,200 and side windows and a bigger curved windshield gives you a whole new feel of 932 00:59:55,200 --> 01:00:02,120 driving. Altogether the new 1973 Super Beetle has 20 improvements. Some big, some 933 01:00:02,120 --> 01:00:13,520 little. Sit in it. You'll notice the big ones right away. 934 01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:17,800 Visit one of your local authorized Volkswagen dealers and find out why 935 01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:24,120 there are over 4 million Volkswagen's on the American road today. Back at Madison 936 01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:27,520 Square Garden let's pause 10 seconds for station identification. This is the next 937 01:00:27,520 --> 01:00:35,200 radio network. In the capital district this is the home of the New York Knicks 938 01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:39,600 WABY Albany. 939 01:00:43,200 --> 01:00:46,920 Back at Madison Square Garden we'd like to have you meet Tom Barnwell. We try to 940 01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:53,000 make it a point at least every year for somebody to meet Tom. Tom, we think he 941 01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:57,080 spends more time at Madison Square Garden than anybody. Matter of fact, somebody 942 01:00:57,080 --> 01:01:01,160 likes an alcohol. That's right Joe, sometimes I'm here all night after a 943 01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:06,640 basketball game so a hockey team comes in which is sometimes 2.30, 3.30 in the morning. 944 01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:11,240 And as a result there's a game in the afternoon like today. I get very little 945 01:01:11,240 --> 01:01:18,040 sleep but I enjoy my job and I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. I know Tom, some of the interesting things that happen. 946 01:01:18,040 --> 01:01:21,440 You know what do you do? You have to wait for the equipment to come in. Right, right Joe. 947 01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:25,520 As maybe most people who've never been here don't know this building is five 948 01:01:25,520 --> 01:01:30,600 stories above the ground and by contrast it's very difficult to get into. When 949 01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:38,040 you're a hockey trainer coming in with maybe 35, 40 hot pieces of equipment it's nice to have somebody from this 950 01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:44,920 particular building here to tweet you. It's a little bit tougher on here Tom as you point out. I think you've got a couple of ramps coming up. Right. 951 01:01:44,920 --> 01:01:51,000 Bring trucks on. Right. Then you've got to get the equipment which comes in trunks. Right. It's got to be on track. That's right. Right Joe. 952 01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:56,960 Now Tom, this is quite a trick that they do here. We've seen them do it but it's a shame that it can't be shown 953 01:01:56,960 --> 01:02:02,240 sometimes how the quarters lay down. Oh. Now right after this you're going to have hockey. Right. It's amazing. 954 01:02:02,240 --> 01:02:08,120 And you know the very good thing about it is our crew here, our labor crew has never been late for an event. 955 01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:17,520 They're always on time. I've stayed here at night to watch them make the ice and it's just a fantastic thing. I mean I wish a lot of people could get the opportunity to make it and to see it. 956 01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:26,280 I think we should tell them Tom that the ice is right now. Right. Yes. See during the regular season now we've been leaving the ice down because of the problems we've been having. 957 01:02:26,280 --> 01:02:38,600 You know the ice is just made and everything is really really bad. You know the ice was chippy down the corners and everything so as a result this year we decided to leave the ice in. 958 01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:44,560 Sometimes we had to take it out because the track needs a different event. Oh I see. 959 01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:50,520 Now what goes with the circus? That's the kind of a sand box they put that right down in the concrete don't they? Right. 960 01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:59,520 Well no. Yesterday they made the ice right after the circus show Friday night. They had to take all their equipment up for the icemen to make the ice and then put it down again. 961 01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:04,640 As a result they're very displeased. Well you know this is something that they're just going to have to do. They're in for two months. 962 01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:16,160 They're just going to have to understand that. They've got to understand that the Nick and Ranger fans are probably the best fans in any sport in any city and they deserve a right to see their team play. 963 01:03:16,160 --> 01:03:23,880 Now Tom you're a little bit more of a hockey fan than you are basketball aren't you? Yes y'all it's true but believe me I get very upset when the Knicks lose. I know you do. 964 01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:28,800 I root for them. I root for them very compassionately especially against the Celtics. 965 01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:34,280 Well do you think that the hockey game is a rougher tougher game than basketball or how do you compare them? 966 01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:47,280 Well basketball they say is an on contact sport which is a lot of grief. It certainly is not. Ice team players get bumped around there very good. Hockey players to be are a different breed. 967 01:03:47,280 --> 01:04:00,280 Ice team guys go in with a broken thumb and come back out to the next shift. It's just amazing. All the athletes I think in basketball hockey are probably the two toughest competitors. 968 01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:15,280 Now let me ask you this. John Cunton a good friend of ours I should ask you this. He knows how average you watch the hockey players, the different teams, how impartial you are. Now who do you think is the top hockey player in the game today? 969 01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:22,280 In the game there's no question about it. The kid from Boston number four Bobby Yorick. He's just a tremendous tremendous hockey player. 970 01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:34,280 I mean you know they say Espo, Espejito being out unfortunately. If they lose Bobby Yorick they did in the first part of the season I believe they won three out of 22 games without him. He's the key to that hockey club. 971 01:04:34,280 --> 01:04:45,280 Who's the best goalie? Best goalie of being partial but I believe it's Eddie Jackman of the Rangers. He is the other night in Boston I happened to be up at the game and he got hurt. 972 01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:59,280 He got hit with a Ken Hodge inadvertently hit him against the side of the crease and he got up and on it. I was really pleased with the Boston fans. They gave him a great standing ovation and a great competitor that he is. He was back out there in 40 seconds. 973 01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:03,280 You know Tom, actually Boston's more of a hockey town than this. 974 01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:21,280 Oh they're unbelievable. Even the years to Celtics were the perennial champs in the NBA. The Brooms used to draw 13-9-0-9 to that old Boston Garden. It was just amazing and it's a great building to watch a hockey game. I enjoy going up there. Unfortunately I have to go back up Tuesday again. 975 01:05:21,280 --> 01:05:23,280 Tom what do you think of this game? 976 01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:36,280 Well it started out good for the Knicks and then Baltimore got hot but I think the Knicks are going to run away with this in the second half. I believe I really do. I think Monroe's going to really go wild in the second half. 977 01:05:36,280 --> 01:05:39,280 I think they're going to win this by about 20 or more points. 978 01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:43,280 Tom they better win it here because we've got to go back to Baltimore. 979 01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:53,280 Hey that's tough. I'll tell you something. They give the Knicks a fit. I would say out of all the teams in the league, the Knicks and the Ballermores match up the best against anybody. 980 01:05:53,280 --> 01:06:06,280 This is illustrated. They've had some great playoff series the last couple of years. But the good thing on the Knicks side, the Knicks have never lost an opening round to the Ballermores. The one year Ballermore beat them here at the Garden was the second round after the Knicks beat Atlanta in the first round. 981 01:06:06,280 --> 01:06:09,280 And I feel confident the Knicks will end it today. 982 01:06:09,280 --> 01:06:20,280 We're talking with Tom Barnwell and Tom we always love to have you with us. He's got a great and wonderful sense of humor. He's an avid exponent of the sport. He watches it so closely. 983 01:06:20,280 --> 01:06:29,280 And we want you to have this AM clock radio, a gift from Getty who sells premium gasoline over 100 octane and a few pennies less per gallon. That's what's on the major premium. 984 01:06:29,280 --> 01:06:33,280 Getty premium gasoline, more miles to be a money. Thanks so much Tom. 985 01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:39,280 My pleasure. Love to have you with us. We'll have onyx basketball in just 60 seconds. 986 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:54,280 It's Ward week when all America shops and saves with store wide values such as these.

Mike's giant socks. They're made with love. Made with love. For a team. W A B Y. 990 01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:58,280 We're at half time. The game between the New York and Nicker Foxes and the Baltimore Bullets. This is game five and a best four of seven series. New York leading three games to one and they're leading 54 to 45 here at half time. 991 01:07:58,280 --> 01:08:15,280 The official statistics have just come up. Here's how it looks. Janir has 10 points. He's hit on four out of 12. Two out of two from the foul line. Falk has hit six out of nine. He's just great. He's got 14 points. Two out of three from the foul line. 992 01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:31,280 Hayes has hit one out of nine. That's unusual. That means he's only hitting about 11 percent. One out of two from the foul line. Porter has failed to score. Reardon has hit on four out of eight. That's 50 percent. One out of one from the foul line. That's nine points. 993 01:08:31,280 --> 01:08:46,280 Tresman has failed to score. Wes Unshelled has hit on four out of nine. He's hitting 44 percent. One out of two from the foul line for a total of nine points. Unshelled has nine rebounds. Just a great basketball player. 994 01:08:46,280 --> 01:09:01,280 There have been five turnovers on the part of Baltimore. Baltimore is hitting 40 percent from the floor, 70 percent from the foul line. 19 or 47 from the floor, seven out of 10 from the foul line. More than Nick Apoc has badly hit on one out of four. He's way off. 995 01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:16,280 Three out of five from the foul line. He's off there too. He has five points. The busher is hitting two out of six. He's off one out of one from the foul line for five. Tresman hit on three out of six, 60 percent. Two out of two from the foul line for a total of eight points. 996 01:09:16,280 --> 01:09:33,280 Jackson hit on two out of two from the floor, two out of two from the foul line. He's got six points. Lucas one out of one. The only bomb that he took in the second quarter. He has two points. Memminger has tried two from the floor, hit on both of them. 997 01:09:33,280 --> 01:09:48,280 Monroe having a brilliant first half. Hit on ten out of 13. He's the guy who's keeping the Knicks in there. Ten out of 13. He has not been to the foul line. He has 20 points. And Reed, two out of four for 50 percent. He has four points. 998 01:09:48,280 --> 01:10:03,280 So New York has hit on 23 out of 38 for 61 percent. Good shooting from the floor and from the foul line, eight out of 10 for 80 percent. So there have been four turnovers on the part of the Knicks, five on the part of Baltimore. 999 01:10:03,280 --> 01:10:21,280 Each of the Knicks have rebounded five times, team rebound. And Baltimore has one team rebound. Frazier has five assists. He has ten rebounds. And this man is just unbelievable. He's supposed to be getting three hundred thousand dollars a year. 1000 01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:44,280 And when you look at what he does, you say that he is worth it. We're getting set for the second half of the score. New York 54, Baltimore 45. Let's listen to this from Schaeffer. 1001 01:10:44,280 --> 01:11:11,280 When a man goes a few rounds with a punching bag, he's sure to come up with a powerful third. More than one beer. When this workout's over, he'll be good for a couple of beers at least. That's why he'll be good for Schaeffer. 1002 01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:27,280 Schaeffer pleasure stays first beer smooth, first beer bright, first frosty glass for last. You see, we started practicing on more than one beer thirst back before most brewers even started brewing. And practice makes perfect. 1003 01:11:27,280 --> 01:11:49,280 Schaeffer is the one and a half when you're having more than one. 14, WKB 1. We're about all set to go for the second half. Time has run out on the clock. Both teams are on the court warming up. New York to our right, Baltimore to our left. 1004 01:11:49,280 --> 01:12:03,280 This has been a most interesting series. New York taking the first three games when we were down in Baltimore on Friday night. Both the New York and the Baltimore news statement said, well, it would be over tonight, but it wasn't. 1005 01:12:03,280 --> 01:12:19,280 This is a tough Baltimore team as Tom Barnwell mentioned. They seem to match up beautifully against the Knicks. The broad part of it is that the Knicks themselves feel that Baltimore would be tougher than either Boston, Milwaukee, or even Los Angeles. 1006 01:12:19,280 --> 01:12:42,280 So we will see what we can see. The only team to have an advantage over the Knicks during the season was Milwaukee. They won more games than New York did. As a matter of fact, against Boston, the Knicks split, and against Los Angeles, they split. 1007 01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:56,280 Boston, on the other hand, against Los Angeles won all the games. So you wonder what happens when you get down into the nitty-gritty part of it. The first quarter score that we have shows that Linn are leading Boston at the end of the first quarter, 31-26. 1008 01:12:56,280 --> 01:13:16,280 So Boston can be another score coming up. Boston has taken the lead. Atlanta leading 31-26 at the quarter. Boston now takes the lead 50-47 at halftime. 1009 01:13:16,280 --> 01:13:30,280 Boston, a real fine team there, not well at the moment. A couple of the Boston players are not well. Havlcheck has an intestinal disorder, and one or two of the other players not quite up to par. 1010 01:13:30,280 --> 01:13:44,280 But the Boston team is the team that will have to be reckoned with and will be a tough one, and will be tough for the Knicks. Incidentally, if you come to New York for either basketball, baseball, football, or for the theater, we recommend the three Stouffer restaurants. 1011 01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:54,280 Dinner for two at Act One in the Allied Chemical Building at One Times Square, where you can enjoy delicious food Monday through Saturday in a Nunesh pub-type atmosphere. That's at Act One. 1012 01:13:54,280 --> 01:14:04,280 Or dinner for two atop of the Sixes, where you can enjoy refreshing cocktails and delicious food high over Fifth Avenue with a spectacular view of the world's most celebrated skyline. 1013 01:14:04,280 --> 01:14:16,280 Or Stouffer's new restaurant, Pub Theatrical, at 50th Street and Broadway. 1014 01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:33,280 Both teams over on the far side. Red Holtzman talking to his team. We were saying that more and more we see about Holtzman, the one we admire, because he never goes into any histrionics with his players in front of the public. 1015 01:14:33,280 --> 01:14:48,280 Everything is done in the locker room. Jerry Lucas will start at center, for New York, and Phil Jackson will also start in there for New York in place of Bill Bradd. 1016 01:14:48,280 --> 01:15:04,280 The bullet lineup is the one that started the game. Hayes has a last-minute word with Gene Shue, and it may be that Shue is changing the matchup. 1017 01:15:04,280 --> 01:15:06,280 Okay, we're all set to go. Here's Jones. 1018 01:15:06,280 --> 01:15:12,280 Thank you, Joe. It could be the last half of both will play this year, unless they rally for a nine-point deficit. 1019 01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:19,280 The Knicks want to wrap it up today at home on the tip that goes to Unseld in forecourt. Crosscourt Reardon on the deep right side. 1020 01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:29,280 The Knicks with two new starters, Lucas now and Phil Jackson replacing Bradley and Reed. And they both played very well when they were in there, as did Dean Memminger off the bench. 1021 01:15:29,280 --> 01:15:38,280 Deep outside is Reardon. Right side, Unseld for the fallaway jumper. It's around and out. Rebound to Reardon. He lays it up no good. The rebound by Hayes is good. 1022 01:15:38,280 --> 01:15:45,280 Hayes, who shot one for a nine in the first half. Funny game to figure out. Gets that tapping. 1023 01:15:45,280 --> 01:15:52,280 Alright, 54-47. Here's Jackson. Headed the key. Crosscourt pass on the deep left side to Lucas. Returns to Frazier. 1024 01:15:52,280 --> 01:15:59,280 Frazier cuts in the lane. Back to Jackson on the weave. Jackson's pass is knocked away by Unseld. Picked up by Frazier. Underneath it goes to Jackson. 1025 01:15:59,280 --> 01:16:05,280 He throws the ball up, and it is no good. It's back tapped, though, by DeBusha. Picked up by Frazier. 1026 01:16:05,280 --> 01:16:11,280 Jackson threw the ball while going down almost. Here's Frazier. Deep right side. Headed the key. Lucas driving. Back to Frazier. 1027 01:16:11,280 --> 01:16:17,280 Frazier now. There's a lot of different matchups here. Now Clark challenges Frazier. The jumper is no good long. 1028 01:16:17,280 --> 01:16:24,280 The rebound in the lane is taken by Jackson. He loses. Ahead it goes to Clark from Chenier. Clark drives and lays it up and in. 1029 01:16:24,280 --> 01:16:32,280 Some weird playing by the Knicks there, and I really don't understand any of it. They were looking and looking for the mismatch, and now the Knicks want time out. 1030 01:16:32,280 --> 01:16:42,280 It's been a game of spurts. Oh, it's a 20 second time out for injury. Joe, that was one of the weirdest plays I've ever seen involving Jackson. 1031 01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:49,280 Yeah, John, you're right. The minute and 19 seconds that we've just witnessed was real sloppy. I don't think any of it. 1032 01:16:49,280 --> 01:16:55,280 It was as if the Knicks players were looking for the other team and saying, who's who? And who do I cover and who do I do? 1033 01:16:55,280 --> 01:17:04,280 Jackson took a shot, by the way, when he was almost falling down. I think Jackson has lost a contact lens. Jerry Taylor feels that way. 1034 01:17:04,280 --> 01:17:09,280 And Bill Bradley comes right back on the ball game. Now it's 54-49. The Bulls have scored the only four points of the half. 1035 01:17:09,280 --> 01:17:15,280 Frazier brings it across deep left side. Bradley is in for Jackson. Outside to Buscher. Deep left line, Frazier. 1036 01:17:15,280 --> 01:17:22,280 Frazier looks. Now head of the key goes for Lucas. Played with his back to the basket by Hayes. Right baseline, Frazier. 1037 01:17:22,280 --> 01:17:29,280 Frazier spins with a jumper. It is good. Tough jumper by Klein from the deep baseline. And he nailed it. 1038 01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:38,280 56-49. Frazier has 10 points in the game. Clark brings it across. Challenged by Monroe. Clark holds it outside, 1039 01:17:38,280 --> 01:17:43,280 dribbling the ball. Now head of the key for Chenier. Chenier now lobs it in for Hayes in tight. 1040 01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:49,280 Hayes will spin, go up for the jumper. It is short. The rebound is taken by Bradley. Knocked out of his hands, but he picks it up. 1041 01:17:49,280 --> 01:17:56,280 Head of goals to Monroe. Four court to Buscher. He'll have an open jumper. Dave Gutt. 1042 01:17:56,280 --> 01:18:03,280 And the Knicks have the nine point lead again. 58-49. Here's Chenier coming four court. Chenier is on the deep left side. 1043 01:18:03,280 --> 01:18:09,280 Now Chenier head of the key, cutting to the right side. Now cuts left. He's in the lane. He's free for the back pass. 1044 01:18:09,280 --> 01:18:19,280 Goal by Monroe. He's going to call a foul. He's going to call a foul, I believe, on the Knicks underneath. And it was now 1045 01:18:19,280 --> 01:18:29,280 Walt Frazier's fourth foul. Frazier's fourth foul. And the Knicks won time. There is timeout with the score. 1046 01:18:29,280 --> 01:18:35,280 The Knicks 58, Baltimore 49. More Knicks basketball in just 60 seconds. 1047 01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:41,280 It's Ward Week when all America shops and saves with store-wide values such as these. 1048 01:18:41,280 --> 01:18:49,280 In Ward's Automotive Department, save 60% off your second glass track belted road tamer when you buy the first tire at the regular price plus 1049 01:18:49,280 --> 01:18:58,280 MDT and trade. As an example, your second C78-14 tubeless black wall plus 208 Federal Exxon tax and trade is just $14. 1050 01:18:58,280 --> 01:19:04,280 Shop and save at Ward's in Albany and Mohawk Mall. 1051 01:19:04,280 --> 01:19:14,280 Tasting great. Mike's Giant Sucks. On a date. Mike's Giant Sucks. On the ski slopes. Mike's Giant Sucks. At the skating rink. 1052 01:19:14,280 --> 01:19:26,280 Mike's Giant Sucks. At the game. Mike's Giant Sucks. By the fire. Mike's Giant Sucks. With your friends. Everywhere. Anytime. 1053 01:19:26,280 --> 01:19:38,280 Mike's Giant Sucks. They're made with love. Made with love. For a team. W-A-B-Y. 1054 01:19:38,280 --> 01:19:46,280 Joe Hassen with John Sterling at Madison Square Garden. Dean Leminger comes in to replace Walt Frazier. 1055 01:19:46,280 --> 01:19:54,280 Frazier has four personals on him. And you can be sure that the hostman wants him because of the eventualities that often happen 1056 01:19:54,280 --> 01:20:00,280 towards the end of the game. He wants that type of protection. Leminger has played well while he's been in there. 1057 01:20:00,280 --> 01:20:08,280 Alright, we're all set. Ready to go. It'll be Philadelphia's ball outside to our left. On our side of the court, here's John. 1058 01:20:08,280 --> 01:20:14,280 Shneer triggers into Archie Clark. Bullets are down by nine. 58-49. Now head of the key, Unsell. Faces the basket. 1059 01:20:14,280 --> 01:20:19,280 Right side, Hayes. Low-posing Shneer. Shneer spins to get the layup. And he knocks it in. 1060 01:20:19,280 --> 01:20:26,280 He's run away from Monroe by raising him in the air and that had an easy layup. 58-51. The Knicks lead by seven. 1061 01:20:26,280 --> 01:20:34,280 Leminger in for the Frazier four fouls. Brings it across the line. Deep right side to Buschir. Head of the key goes for Monroe. 1062 01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:41,280 Played now by Shneer. Monroe holds the ball deep outside. Knicks standing around. Now deep left side to Buschir on the way to the hoop against Reardon. 1063 01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:50,280 Bradley for the forced jumper. It's good! Bradley out of his range a little bit, but he forced it up and in. 1064 01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:56,280 Bullets bring it in. Knicks have some pressure in the back court with Beminger playing Clark. And Archie will bring it across. 1065 01:20:56,280 --> 01:21:01,280 They're really trying to pressure Archie as he comes up court and they've done a good job today. 1066 01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:05,280 Now a high-law pass. Unsell head of the key, cutting left. Holds the dribble. Across it goes to Hayes. 1067 01:21:05,280 --> 01:21:11,280 They low-court Shneer again. Shneer underneath to get the lay-in again. And they've worked the same play in a row twice for Shneer. 1068 01:21:11,280 --> 01:21:19,280 He's had two lay-ins. 60-53. A seven-point Knickerbocker lead in four court. Memminger. He's left side of the key. 1069 01:21:19,280 --> 01:21:24,280 Give it off to Lucas and get it back. Memminger left of the key. Memminger cutting right. Head of the key to Bradley on the weave. 1070 01:21:24,280 --> 01:21:31,280 Outside to Buschir. Long jumper. Dave is no good. Long rebound. Unsell. Outlet pass Clark. He spins away from Monroe. 1071 01:21:31,280 --> 01:21:36,280 In four court. Archie on the way to the hoop. Lays it up. It is no good. Rebound by Lucas. Archie lost control. 1072 01:21:36,280 --> 01:21:43,280 Here's Memminger in four court. Cross court to Monroe. In the lay-in. He lays it up. It is no good. Rebound by De Buschir. 1073 01:21:43,280 --> 01:21:49,280 They're out of there. Monroe is knocked down. He didn't go on a foul. 1074 01:21:49,280 --> 01:21:55,280 Alright. Here is Shneer four court. Shneer spinning at the head of the key. Outside. Rear. Cutting left. 1075 01:21:55,280 --> 01:22:02,280 Give it back to Archie. Archie in the lane for unfurled on the weave. Back outside. Reardon. Reardon cuts left. Underneath. Reardon lays it up. 1076 01:22:02,280 --> 01:22:10,280 And it's no good. But he threw the foul from Bradley. 1077 01:22:10,280 --> 01:22:15,280 That's Bill Bradley's foul. That's a number three on Bradley. 1078 01:22:15,280 --> 01:22:21,280 And now there's another timeout call. And the Knicks want another timeout. Timeout with the score. 1079 01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:27,280 The Knicks 62, Baltimore 53. Right now, here's a message from Mobile. 1080 01:22:27,280 --> 01:22:32,280 If you didn't mobile to church and gasoline, welcome to Dodge City Garage. 1081 01:22:32,280 --> 01:22:37,280 We've been waiting for someone like you to come here and help clean this place up for a long time. 1082 01:22:37,280 --> 01:22:41,280 Well, I'm always willing to do my best to help a car in need. 1083 01:22:41,280 --> 01:22:47,280 Just tell me where I can find these filthy teens who frolick in trying to foul up car engines. 1084 01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:52,280 In Fuling, Mr. Dirt and his gang there inside fooling around with Miss Lucy's car engine. 1085 01:22:52,280 --> 01:22:57,280 Thank you, Sheriff. Okay, Dirt, come out with your hands clean. 1086 01:22:57,280 --> 01:23:02,280 Oh, I can't right now. I'm busy trying to cook up this carburetor. 1087 01:23:02,280 --> 01:23:11,280 I knew you were up to some no good deed. As mobile detergent gasoline, it's my job to help a car's performance by helping to keep its engine clean. 1088 01:23:11,280 --> 01:23:15,280 So I'm ordering you to cease and desist this despicable action. 1089 01:23:15,280 --> 01:23:19,280 Huh? In other words, stop what you're doing and leave town. 1090 01:23:19,280 --> 01:23:21,280 I'm going, Mobile. I'm going. 1091 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:24,280 Because you're afraid to fight me? 1092 01:23:24,280 --> 01:23:28,280 No, because you're not much of a bum person to be around. 1093 01:23:32,280 --> 01:23:41,280 Joe Hassen with John Sterling and Madison Square Garden. We have 741 to go in the third quarter. New York is leading 62 to 53. 1094 01:23:41,280 --> 01:23:46,280 Holtzman, of course, is not happy with the way his team is moving. 1095 01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:52,280 Monroe is unable to contain Chenier. He was unable to do much with Clark in the first half. 1096 01:23:52,280 --> 01:23:55,280 But Earl did pick up 20 points, so those things are overlooked. 1097 01:23:55,280 --> 01:24:00,280 But now it could be a case of where Walter Walker's fight its way back. 1098 01:24:00,280 --> 01:24:04,280 And Chenier's a real tough man scoring. That's a great job. 1099 01:24:04,280 --> 01:24:06,280 Riddens at the line. Here's Joe. 1100 01:24:06,280 --> 01:24:11,280 Okay, Joe. Rear down the line for two. Foul by Bradley. The Knicks' second team foul. Third out, Bradley. 1101 01:24:11,280 --> 01:24:13,280 Foul shot by Reardon is good. 1102 01:24:17,280 --> 01:24:22,280 Mike for one more off the line. Foul shot is the round and out. Rebounded by Lucas. 1103 01:24:22,280 --> 01:24:28,280 The Knicks now lead by eight. 62 to 54. They could grab their largest lead of the game with a hoop here. 1104 01:24:28,280 --> 01:24:30,280 They've led by as many as nine. Never more. 1105 01:24:30,280 --> 01:24:36,280 Memminger, head of the key, holds his dribble, left to the key now for Monroe. Give it to Bradley, cutting right. 1106 01:24:36,280 --> 01:24:41,280 Bradley now spins left, covered on a play outside to Buescher. Has an open jumper. Dave, it is good. 1107 01:24:44,280 --> 01:24:48,280 And the Knicks now lead by 10 points. That's the largest lead of the game for either team. 1108 01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:55,280 64-54 in four-court Reardon. Reardon now challenging. Bradley goes all the way, lays it up and in. 1109 01:24:55,280 --> 01:25:01,280 Reardon got away from Bradley and laid it in on a reverse layup. 64-56. The Knicks by eight. 1110 01:25:01,280 --> 01:25:05,280 Memminger, left baseline, Bradley. Bradley brings it out in the lane, covered by Unsulled on the switch. 1111 01:25:05,280 --> 01:25:11,280 Give it back to Lucas. Lucas played by Reardon, driving on Reardon. A running right hand is around the rim and out the rebound by Unsulled. 1112 01:25:11,280 --> 01:25:16,280 Long out the pass stolen by Monroe. Monroe plays it in four-court to Bradley. 1113 01:25:16,280 --> 01:25:23,280 Bradley in the lane for the jumper. It is a round and out. Rebound Unsulled. Long out the pass over Reardon and out of bounds. 1114 01:25:23,280 --> 01:25:28,280 And Unsulled is throwing away the ball twice and he normally does not do that. 1115 01:25:33,280 --> 01:25:39,280 Memminger brings it up. The Knicks by eight. 64-56. 6-30 left in the third quarter. 1116 01:25:39,280 --> 01:25:44,280 Head of the key for DeBusha, played by Hayes. Now right of the key, Bradley. On the weave it goes to Lucas. 1117 01:25:44,280 --> 01:25:48,280 Lucas cuts right, played by Reardon on the switch. Now to Monroe. Right of the lane. 1118 01:25:48,280 --> 01:25:53,280 Knicks standing around to Lucas in the lane. Lucas spins and they're going to call an offensive foul on Lucas. 1119 01:25:59,280 --> 01:26:04,280 Second foul on Lucas. That's not a team foul though. So the Knicks remain with two team fouls. 1120 01:26:04,280 --> 01:26:08,280 Baltimore has not committed a foul yet this quarter. They still trail though by eight points. 1121 01:26:08,280 --> 01:26:13,280 Clark brings it across. Head of the key now Unsulled. Back to the basket. Looking underneath. 1122 01:26:13,280 --> 01:26:18,280 Still looking underneath. Now give it back to Clark. Clark right of the lane for the open jumper is good. 1123 01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:23,280 Clark around an Unsulled pick and it's 64-58. The Knicks lead is now down to six. 1124 01:26:25,280 --> 01:26:29,280 Earl Monroe brings it across. He's on the deep left side. Driven the ball against Chenier. 1125 01:26:29,280 --> 01:26:34,280 Backing Chenier in. Backing him in. Give it back to DeBusha. DeBusha now played by Chenier on the switch. 1126 01:26:34,280 --> 01:26:38,280 Backed Chenier in. Now back to Monroe. Left side, Monroe. Jumper. It's good. 1127 01:26:38,280 --> 01:26:45,280 Earl Monroe is busy. Knick offense today. He's been a lifesaver with 22 points. 1128 01:26:45,280 --> 01:26:51,280 Here's Clark. Four court. Clark deep right side. Unsulled set the pick. 1129 01:26:51,280 --> 01:26:55,280 Now Clark's reared and headed the key. Reared and starts to drive. Now brings it out. 1130 01:26:55,280 --> 01:26:59,280 Shoots the long jumper up. It is good. Long jumper by Rearden. 1131 01:26:59,280 --> 01:27:03,280 And it's 68-66. 60. A six point lead. 1132 01:27:03,280 --> 01:27:08,280 Memminger four court. Behind his back. In the lane. Out to Lucas. Lucas with a bomb. It is around the rim. 1133 01:27:08,280 --> 01:27:13,280 Out. Rebound Clark. Bullets have a chance to cut the lead now. Rearden in four court on Bradley. 1134 01:27:13,280 --> 01:27:18,280 Shoots the lefty jumper up. It is good. Mike Rearden rings the bell again. 1135 01:27:18,280 --> 01:27:24,280 And now it's 66-62. It has been 64-54. And the Bullets challenge again. 1136 01:27:24,280 --> 01:27:31,280 As I said before, it's a game of spurts. Dean Memminger four court. Played by Clark. 1137 01:27:31,280 --> 01:27:36,280 Memminger dribbling the ball outside. Right of the key now. Bradley. Right baseline to Buster. Played by Unsulled. 1138 01:27:36,280 --> 01:27:41,280 DeBusha now brings the ball out. DeBusha now fakes the jumper. Goes up for the jumper. It is around the rim and in. 1139 01:27:41,280 --> 01:27:45,280 Hounds the basket. He was fouled on the play. 1140 01:27:52,280 --> 01:27:56,280 First foul on Unsulled. First on the team. 1141 01:27:56,280 --> 01:28:01,280 Jackson is now back in the ball game for Bradley. Bradley leaves with seven points. 1142 01:28:01,280 --> 01:28:07,280 But Rearden, who he's been playing at, 16. DeBusha to try for the three point play. It's in the air. It's short. 1143 01:28:07,280 --> 01:28:12,280 The rebound is back at DeBusha. Long jumper Dave is good. 1144 01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:17,280 So it becomes a four point play all by DeBusha. 1145 01:28:17,280 --> 01:28:22,280 And once again the next play is four court Unsulled. Holds the ball ahead of the key. Left of the lane Clark. 1146 01:28:22,280 --> 01:28:28,280 Clark shaking back home. Gets free for the jumper. It is no good long rebound. Rearden. Rearden brings the ball out. 1147 01:28:28,280 --> 01:28:35,280 Head of the key Clark. Clark loses the dribble. He's knocked down by DeBusha. And they're going to call a foul on DeBusha. 1148 01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:47,280 Ritchie Powers. Call a foul. Redholtz really jumped off the bench there. They're going for the loose ball. 1149 01:28:47,280 --> 01:28:53,280 Now Clark brings it in. 13 foul on the next. 1150 01:28:53,280 --> 01:29:00,280 Well pulled for Unsulled. Unsulled now goes to the basket. He lays it up. And no good but he got fouled by Jackson. 1151 01:29:00,280 --> 01:29:05,280 Unsulled missed an easy layup there. 1152 01:29:05,280 --> 01:29:10,280 Foul on Jackson is second. And the Knicks have 14 fouls. 1153 01:29:10,280 --> 01:29:17,280 West on Sells will get two from the line. Not a good foul on Jenner. 1154 01:29:17,280 --> 01:29:22,280 And he misses the first shot as you can plainly hear. 1155 01:29:22,280 --> 01:29:27,280 West for the second shot. It is good. 1156 01:29:27,280 --> 01:29:32,280 70-63. The Knicks lead by seven. Out of the back court. 1157 01:29:32,280 --> 01:29:36,280 Slowest dribble down in four court. 1158 01:29:36,280 --> 01:29:40,280 Deep left side DeBusha. DeBusha challenge down the pick. Cuts right. 1159 01:29:40,280 --> 01:29:44,280 It gives it to Murrow. Right of the lay. Monroe with Jenner. Backs him in. 1160 01:29:44,280 --> 01:29:48,280 Sends in the lay now. Goes up with a hook. It is around and out. He missed an easy one. 1161 01:29:48,280 --> 01:29:51,280 And there's a foul on Jackson. A loose ball foul. 1162 01:29:51,280 --> 01:29:55,280 Over the shoulder of Reardon. 1163 01:29:55,280 --> 01:30:00,280 It's a loose ball foul but the Knicks are over the limit. 1164 01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:05,280 Foul is on Jerry Lucas. His third foul. A loose ball. But Reardon will shoot one and one too. 1165 01:30:05,280 --> 01:30:10,280 As the Knicks are in foul trouble, the Bullets only have one team foul. 1166 01:30:10,280 --> 01:30:15,280 Reardon gets two foul shots. His first is good. 1167 01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:21,280 Mike has 17 in the ball game. The Bullets lead by Clark with 18. Chenier 14. Reardon 17. 1168 01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:26,280 Now Reardon for a second foul shot. It is a round of 16. 1169 01:30:26,280 --> 01:30:31,280 Now Reardon for a second foul shot. It is a round of 16. 1170 01:30:31,280 --> 01:30:35,280 And the Knicks lead is 6. 70-64. 1171 01:30:35,280 --> 01:30:39,280 Monroe out of the back court. Monroe. 1172 01:30:39,280 --> 01:30:44,280 Left of the lane for Memeger. Now deep left side DeBusha played by Reardon. 1173 01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:47,280 DeBusha looks underneath for Monroe and he lays it in. 1174 01:30:47,280 --> 01:30:50,280 Beautiful pass by DeBusha. And Monroe on the lay in. 1175 01:30:50,280 --> 01:30:53,280 72-64. 8 point lead for the Knicks once again. 1176 01:30:53,280 --> 01:30:57,280 Reardon now dribbling the ball. Left to right. 1177 01:30:57,280 --> 01:31:02,280 Hands off to Clark. Clark now. Head of the key. Open jumper by Archie is good. 1178 01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:06,280 And they are picking off Memeger. Time and time again. Archie has 20 points. 1179 01:31:06,280 --> 01:31:09,280 Here is Memeger to the hoop. A running right hander is no good. 1180 01:31:09,280 --> 01:31:14,280 But he is fouled on the way to the hoop by Clark. It should be a two shot foul. 1181 01:31:14,280 --> 01:31:18,280 Third foul on Clark. 1182 01:31:18,280 --> 01:31:23,280 Two on the team and Memeger goes to the line for two. 1183 01:31:23,280 --> 01:31:28,280 3.15 left in the third quarter. Knicks trying to wrap this series up. Bullets trying to stay alive. 1184 01:31:28,280 --> 01:31:35,280 Knicks lead in the series. Three games to one. Foul shot by Memeger is good. 1185 01:31:35,280 --> 01:31:41,280 John's throwing. Joe Hassel from the garden. Foul shot. Memeger good. 1186 01:31:41,280 --> 01:31:48,280 8 point Knickerbocker lead. 74-56. Came into the quarter leading by nine. 1187 01:31:48,280 --> 01:31:54,280 Chenier brings it across. Spinning now. Left baseline reared and outside Chenier looking for Hayes. 1188 01:31:54,280 --> 01:31:57,280 Left side now goes into Hayes. Hayes spins. Lays it up and in. 1189 01:31:57,280 --> 01:32:02,280 And he was fouled on the play. Count the basket. He was fouled on the play. 1190 01:32:02,280 --> 01:32:06,280 A weird shot by Hayes and the Bullets one time out. 1191 01:32:06,280 --> 01:32:13,280 There is a time out with the score. The Knicks 74. The Bullets 68. Now this from Sheeper Beer. 1192 01:32:36,280 --> 01:32:47,280 Say if you've been switching around lately looking for a better brand of beer, here's a way to make your next switch your last. 1193 01:32:47,280 --> 01:32:52,280 Switch to Sheeper and discover flavor that doesn't pay to beer after beer. 1194 01:32:52,280 --> 01:32:57,280 You'll find that Sheeper stays crisp and bright first frosty cold glass to last. 1195 01:32:57,280 --> 01:33:00,280 And you just may decide that the one beer for you is Sheeper. 1196 01:33:00,280 --> 01:33:07,280 You'll have one beer to have when you're having more than one. 1197 01:33:07,280 --> 01:33:16,280 One beer to have when you're having more than one. 1198 01:33:16,280 --> 01:33:22,280 Let's pause ten seconds for station identification. This is the Knicks Radio Network. 1199 01:33:22,280 --> 01:33:36,280 In the Capital District, this is the home of the New York Knicks, WABY Albany. 1200 01:33:36,280 --> 01:33:47,280 Joe Hassen with John Sterling at Madison Square Garden. With the Knicks when Bradley isn't in there, there's no movement on the part of the team with or without the ball. 1201 01:33:47,280 --> 01:33:54,280 And of course, the Knicks in early foul trouble, they've got the five, so they're in a bonus situation. 1202 01:33:54,280 --> 01:33:59,280 Baltimore only has two. That seems to be a habit of the Knicks to get into that early foul trouble. 1203 01:33:59,280 --> 01:34:06,280 And their lead once ten points is now down to six with just about three minutes left to play in the third quarter. 1204 01:34:06,280 --> 01:34:07,280 Okay John. 1205 01:34:07,280 --> 01:34:11,280 Elvin to drive the three point play and he's got it. 1206 01:34:11,280 --> 01:34:18,280 74-69. It's a five point Knick lead. Memmager to come out of the back court. Gibson to Monroe and Earl brings it over the line. 1207 01:34:18,280 --> 01:34:24,280 Played by Chenier. Earl's on the right side. Now head of the key. Memmager deep outside. Give it to the Buescher left of the key. 1208 01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:31,280 Monroe around a pick and low pulse doesn't get it. Back to Jackson. Over to Buescher. Jumper by Davis. Long rebound in the lane by Jackson. 1209 01:34:31,280 --> 01:34:38,280 Good rebound by Phil Jackson. A good offensive rebound. Jackson now right of the lane. Low pulse reads. He spins, doesn't shoot it. 1210 01:34:38,280 --> 01:34:44,280 He's low pulsing now. He doesn't shoot it now. They're going to call what? Three seconds. 1211 01:34:44,280 --> 01:34:48,280 Three second violation on Reed. 1212 01:34:48,280 --> 01:34:54,280 And the Bullets could now cut the lead to three points with a hoop and they were down by as many as ten. 1213 01:34:54,280 --> 01:35:01,280 Been a funny game. A good game though. Chenier outside. Comes left of the key. Now left baseline reared. 1214 01:35:01,280 --> 01:35:07,280 They're looking in for Unsell. Fine Unsell. Played by Reed. Unsell now low pulsing. Hooks it up. It is around the rim and out. 1215 01:35:07,280 --> 01:35:13,280 Rebound taken by Hayes. Hayes spins to the jumper. It's good. It counts the basket. He was fouled on the play. 1216 01:35:13,280 --> 01:35:19,280 Big rebound by Elvin Hayes and he was fouled on the play. 1217 01:35:19,280 --> 01:35:29,280 Fouls on Jackson. Jackson's third. The team is over the limit so Hayes will get two to make one. Now Praise is going to be rushed in even though he has four fouls. 1218 01:35:29,280 --> 01:35:41,280 Elvin Hayes foul shot is good. Hayes makes two three point plays in a row and it's now 74-72. The Knicks by a hoop with 2-0-5 left in the third quarter and now the Knicks one time. 1219 01:35:41,280 --> 01:35:49,280 There's a time out with the score. The Knicks 74. The Bullets 72. More Knicks basketball in just 60 seconds. 1220 01:35:49,280 --> 01:36:04,280 It's Ward Week when all America shops and saves with store wide values such as these.

At the skating rink. Mike's Giant Sucks. At the game. Mike's Giant Sucks. By the fire. 1223 01:36:34,280 --> 01:36:53,280 Mike's Giant Sucks. With your friends. Everywhere. Anytime. Mike's Giant Sucks. They're made with love. Made with love. For a team. W-A-B-Y. 1224 01:36:53,280 --> 01:37:14,280 Back at Madison Square Garden we have 2-0-4 to go in the third quarter. New York's 10 point lead trimmed down to 2. New York leading 74-72. At the end of the first quarter Baltimore led 31-26. New York led 54-45 a half time. Increased that lead to 10 points. 1225 01:37:14,280 --> 01:37:31,280 We've now seen it whittle down. At one stage Baltimore led by 7. Willis Reed did not help the team at all Friday night. He has not helped them in this game. He's in there now. Jackson has not helped the team. He's hurting them with his almost unnecessary fouling. 1226 01:37:31,280 --> 01:37:47,280 And Frazier's back in there and Walt has four fouls on him. Lucas has four fouls so New York is rapidly running into trouble. The fouls can cost you, can cost you plenty. Okay it's New York's ball in from the other side. Monroe is throwing in front of the press table. John? 1227 01:37:47,280 --> 01:38:04,280 Okay Joe, Frazier is back in. He has four fouls now so we'll watch that. Frazier comes head of the key. Pass is stolen by Hayes. Hayes coming up on Frazier. Hayes goes to the hoop and lays it in and Frazier could not challenge him with four fouls. And the Bullets have rallied and it's all tied at 74. 1228 01:38:04,280 --> 01:38:19,280 Monroe brings it in. Left side. Monroe goes left baseline. Fakes now. No shot outside to Reed. Reed in the lane has the pass knocked away. Picked up by Frazier. Frazier comes left side. Forces the jumper up and good. Walt Frazier. What a clutch shot that was. 1229 01:38:19,280 --> 01:38:37,280 And the next lead 76-74. Tough shot by Clyde and he nailed it. A minute 25. Left third quarter. The next lead by two. Clark now head of the key. Untell's. Untell's dribbling the ball. Right of the key now for Hayes. Hayes giving room. Takes a long jumper. It's good. Long jumper by Hayes. 1230 01:38:37,280 --> 01:38:51,280 And Hayes has 13 points this quarter. 15 in the game. Monroe brings it across the line. Spinning on Chenier. Left baseline Earl. Fakes it. Goes up for the jumper. It's no good long. Rebound in the lane to Buschor. The jumper is good. 1231 01:38:51,280 --> 01:39:12,280 Big offensive rebound by Double D and he knocked it in. 78-76. The next by two. 50 seconds left in the third quarter. Give it outside. Chenier. Chenier on the right side. Played by Frazier. Goes away from Frazier in the lane. Sins for the jumper. It's no good. Rebound Jackson. A long lead pass for Monroe on the way to the hoop. It's knocked away and Clark loses the ball out of bounds. 1232 01:39:12,280 --> 01:39:22,280 But Mike Reardon made the play. He got all the way back now to Adam Monroe's hands and Clark really should have that ball and he lost it. Looking for the baseline. 1233 01:39:22,280 --> 01:39:32,280 39 seconds left in the quarter. The next by two. Frazier to trigger it in. Just so to Reed on the baseline. Give it out. Left side forward to Buschor. Left baseline out. Frazier played by Clark. 1234 01:39:32,280 --> 01:39:48,280 Frazier left to the key. Frazier ahead of the key. Away from a reed pick. Frazier spins for the jumper. It's around and out. Rebound is taken by unsolved. Outlet pass Clark with 24 seconds. Clark brings it in. Clark goes to the right baseline. Sins for the jumper. It's around and out. Rebound by DeBucher. 1235 01:39:48,280 --> 01:40:07,280 DeBucher. DeNichs will probably hold for one. Here comes Monroe out of the back court. Monroe now ahead of the key and DeNichs will play for one shot. Eight seconds. Seven seconds. Six seconds. Five seconds. Monroe left side. Four seconds. Three seconds. Monroe shot is around and out. Rebound unsolved. That's the buzzer. 1236 01:40:07,280 --> 01:40:19,280 And that's the end of the third quarter with the score of the Knicks 78. The Bullets 76. Time out now for Volkswagen. 1237 01:40:19,280 --> 01:40:48,280 What does it take to make a car great? Volkswagen knows that. Look closely at the new 1973 Volkswagen Super Beetle. Outside, it may look pretty much like the same little bug. It's inside that we've made most of the big improvements. Such as seats that are more comfortable. Curves and contours of your body. New inertia type seat belts up front. A 42% bigger curved windshield. A redesigned padded dash that's easier to read. 1238 01:40:48,280 --> 01:41:04,280 It adds up to more space inside. And outside, well the pay-a-likes are nearly twice as big. See the new 1973 Super Beetle. Go inside and take a seat. Right away you'll notice the big change. 1239 01:41:04,280 --> 01:41:19,280 What does it take to make a car great? Volkswagen knows that. Visit one of your local authorized Volkswagen dealers and find out why there are over 4 million Volkswagens on the American road today. 1240 01:41:19,280 --> 01:41:35,280 Back at Madison Square Garden, all set to go into the fourth quarter with New York leading by 2.78 to 76. Monroe has 24 points. Clark has 20 points as we go into this final part of the ball game. 1241 01:41:35,280 --> 01:41:51,280 Anything can happen. We could wind up with an overtime game. Something that we haven't had as much this season as we have had in the past. A tough ball game, a rugged ball game physically. There's no doubt that these teams are well tied. 1242 01:41:51,280 --> 01:42:09,280 Now if a sixth game is necessary, it will be played at Baltimore Wednesday night with airtime 8-10 p.m. If a sixth game is necessary, if Baltimore wins this one, it will be played at Baltimore at the Civic Center Wednesday night and airtime will be 8-10 p.m. 1243 01:42:09,280 --> 01:42:30,280 If Boston overcomes Atlanta in this afternoon's game, they play again on Wednesday. If New York wins this one, it means that the earliest we could have that playoff for the Eastern Conference between New York and Boston, the earliest would be Friday and we believe the first game would be played at Boston. 1244 01:42:30,280 --> 01:42:43,280 The team with the best won or lost average, and that's Boston in the entire league, could make the decision as to whether or not they want to play two up here, two down here, and then one and one, which is what the New York and the Bullets are doing. 1245 01:42:43,280 --> 01:42:48,280 All right, we're going into the final quarter. It could be overtime. Here's John. 1246 01:42:48,280 --> 01:43:02,280 All right, Joe. Reed and Hayes jump inside, the tip goes to Unsell, not going to the pan, West picks it up. Bullets have a chance to tie, they come into the quarter trailing by two. Monroe will play Kevin Porter now, head of the key for Reardon played by the Busscher. 1247 01:43:02,280 --> 01:43:19,280 That's a sign for Hayes' long jumper. It's no good. The rebound is taken by Reed. Reed, long, long outlet pass to Jackson. Jackson is fouled by Porter. Now Porter gave that foul, and that is a good foul because Jackson had an easy lay-in, and Porter just grabbed his arms. 1248 01:43:19,280 --> 01:43:24,280 Now Clark will come right in for Kevin Porter. 1249 01:43:24,280 --> 01:43:33,280 First foul on Kevin and the first on the team. Jackson on the line for two, so Baltimore has their starters in. The team that plays the whole game, the team that scored all the points today. 1250 01:43:33,280 --> 01:43:44,280 The next goal is Jackson Reed, the Busscher, Monroe, Frazier. Frazier has four fouls. Foul shot by Jackson is around, and then he rolls it in. 1251 01:43:44,280 --> 01:43:58,280 Still has seven in the ballgame. Foul shot, Jackson is no good, so Porter's foul saved a point. 79-76, the Knicks by three, and the Knicks want to close this one out badly today. 1252 01:43:58,280 --> 01:44:09,280 Clark comes forecourt, played by Earl Monroe. Archie deep outside, waiting for someone to cut. Now Clark comes to the right side, crosses over, right at the key, no shot, plays back to Hayes, gets it back. 1253 01:44:09,280 --> 01:44:18,280 Now up at Hayes six, Archie's going for a walk. And it was. 1254 01:44:18,280 --> 01:44:28,280 All right, bringing it in is Frazier and Monroe, and Earl now will dribble it up across the line. Knicks lead by three, beginning of the final quarter.

Earl brings it across the line, give it to Frazier. 1266 01:46:05,280 --> 01:46:16,280 Frazier now, holding the ball, head of the P, played by Clark, cross court to Jackson. Jackson looking inside for DeBoucher, finds him. DeBoucher, baseline jumper over Reardon. 1267 01:46:16,280 --> 01:46:23,280 And the ball is one time, and the Knicks have spurred it. Time out, where's the score? 1268 01:46:23,280 --> 01:46:29,280 The Knicks, 83, the ball is 76, here's a message from Mobile. 1269 01:46:29,280 --> 01:46:41,280 In case you don't recognize my voice, I'm Mr. Dirk. The boys and I found this nice clean engine in Mr. Jones' garage, so we thought we'd have a party and try to foul him up good. 1270 01:46:41,280 --> 01:46:51,280 Wow, smudge and grind, glad you could make it. You know we never miss one of your dirt parties. Oh goody, here comes Muck. 1271 01:46:51,280 --> 01:46:58,280 We will have a lot of fun tonight.

Of course that's still the quarter to go. Right here, 929 separates the Bullets from the end of their season.

Here's Frazier on the deep left side, holding the ball away from Clark, now starts his dribble, behind a read pick, Frazier behind the read pick now in the lane, he fakes, he's going to call a foul on Clark for holding and not shooting foul. 1285 01:50:30,280 --> 01:50:50,280 Fourth on Archie, second on the team, 721 left in the final quarter, this could be it for the Bullets and the Knicks might advance. Let's see, Monroe outside, played by Vachonier, Earl head of the key, cross court for Jackson, the lay in a running lefty hook is good. 1286 01:50:50,280 --> 01:51:06,280 Come back by Jackson, the Knicks have their largest lead, 12 points. Alright Archie Clark, four court, Reardon in the lane, Reardon fights through a pick, has been kicked away by Frazier, Frazier ahead of the field, got an easy lay in, it's good. 1287 01:51:06,280 --> 01:51:25,280 And the Bullets are being blown out.

If Atlanta won, the first game would be played here next Sunday. 1302 01:54:55,280 --> 01:55:04,280 We're guessing, but that's about the way it would be. If Boston should pull it out and then win on Wednesday night, the first game would be played against Boston, we think, Friday night. 1303 01:55:04,280 --> 01:55:05,280 Okay, John. 1304 01:55:05,280 --> 01:55:15,280 The Knicks 5'17 left in the game to Buccher, a long jumper.

Time's their ally now, DeBuchy, left baseline, looking in for Jackson, finds Jackson. 1315 01:56:29,280 --> 01:56:40,280 Jackson low post is reared and takes the jumper, it is good. Hit off, the front rim went in, that's about it. 97-83 and the Bullets one time. 1316 01:56:40,280 --> 01:56:48,280 There's a time out with the score, the Knicks 97 and the Bullets 83.

New York is leading by 14. 1326 01:58:01,280 --> 01:58:06,280 New York slowly coming out. Baltimore is just about set and ready to play. 1327 01:58:06,280 --> 01:58:16,280 This could be a hectic three minutes and 57 seconds. If New York wins it, it means that Baltimore last Friday night played its last game at the Civic Center in Baltimore. 1328 01:58:16,280 --> 01:58:21,280 Next year they'll be playing in a new arena at Marlboro, Maryland.

He really challenged the rebound and it slipped off Hay's hand. 1334 01:58:50,280 --> 01:58:56,280 The Bullets will inbound 337 underneath their own basket left in the ballgame. Next by 12.
