worthy shirt the day after he retired; i don't
remember doing that, though.




earvin j.: today's teenagers didn't have
the opportunity to witness this once-in-a-
millenium-type player. now he promotes gambling
at san manuel.

legends honored: abdul-jabbar (just finished
making a documentary: on the shoulders of giants).

jerry west (said his six finals losses to Boston
left "lifelong" scar).

mr. 24. the killer. i don't know if i can ever
root for bryant the way i did for peeler. never-
