    As usual, articles picture him old (same with West & Walton). They don't show the Attles I remember-big Afro, made others laugh with his baritone voice. Nate Thurmond, Rick Barry's return coinciding with Keith Wilkes arrival, getting Clifford Ray after excellent coaching from Dick Motta aren't mentioned.
