the playing dates available,
in the various arenas, for
the respective home teams.

NBA Board of Governors

much of a task for the aging
Mr. Gottlieb, so they de-

there was only a "minor in-

IBM people said that they
thought they could work the
schedule out on their com-
puters.
When Mr. Gottlieb got to-
gether with the IBM people
they saw that it was a prob-
lem that even their com-
puters could not handle. As
a matter of fact, after fiddl-
ing around with the various
schedule ideas they had
made, they offered the bas-
ketball star a job. Mr.
Gottlieb thanked them for
the compliment but passed
up what could have been a
very lucrative position.
Basketball was his one and
only true love and remained
so until his death, three
years ago.
