Michigan track team, Bowling
Green is just what the doctor or-
dered. In case you didn't know,
Bowling Green is the site of West-
ern Kentucky University and to-
day's track meet, the inaugural of
the Blue thinclads outdoor cam-
pa-n.
For Farmer and his charges, this.
small town offers a relatively warm
climate and a chance to do some
much needed outdoor work. The
track team left Thursday morning
and arrived at WKU just in time
for a hard workout that after-
noon. Michigan also held a stren-
uous session yesterday, an unusual
occ"trence on the day preceeding
a meet.
HOWEVER, in this case the
hard work is more imnortant than
winning the meet. Don't worry,
Farmer is notthrowingthe meet.
But in the drive for the Big Ten
title a day of hard outdoor work is
more imnortant than a win over
Western Kentucky.
Farmer does want to win the
meet. The Wolverines are unde-
feated in dual meet action so far

Against
NBA layfs... finally here
By MARC FELDMAN
THE LONG grind of the seemingly endless National Basketball*
Association season is mercifully over and finally the good
teams in the league can settle down to some serious business-the
playoffs.
This season in' particular the regular season was totally
useless. Everyone assumed that the league's powerhouses, Bos-
ton, New York, Los Angeles and Milwaukee would have no
trouble securing spots among the eight eligible teams but the ease
with which Chicago, Baltimore, Atlanta and Golden State grab-
bed berths was, if not unexpected, unwelcome.
There was simply no drama in the NBA this season. Under
the divisional setups, most of the league teams assumed their
positions in the standings in the first month of the season and
with the minor exception of Detroit's overtaking of Kansas City-
Omaha in the past few weeks, remained that way.
The supposed logic behind the present playoff format is left
over from the early struggling days of the league when teams
played in ramshackle arenas before miniscule crowds.
The playoffs were the only time genuine interest was gener-
ated by the press, and financial losses could be overcome. How-
ever, when the gap in the Atlantic Division between the New
York Knicks and the Buffalo Braves is 36 games and teams are
able to clinch playoff berths in January, .the balance of the
season becomes a farce.
On the weekly telecasts on ABC-TV, Bill Russell hada great
deal of trouble making games even among the NBA's elite seem
like they meant anything. Over the past five years, the rivalry
between the Knicks and the Baltimore Bullets'has been one of
the league's best but the result of an individual game during the
season is unimportant. How can the average fan retain an in-
terest in games that Russell says are for "the psychological ad-
vantage" in the playoffs? No way.
Under the present four-division format, the inequality of
competition between the "haves" and the "have-nots" became
more pronounced than ever in the 72-73 season. As mentioned
previously, second-place New York won 36 more games' than
Buffalo; Atlanta, 13 more than third-place Houston; Chicago,
11 more than the Pistons; and Golden State, nine more than
Phoenix in the Pacific Division.
The unfortunate aspect of this setup is that whatever way
the playoff picture develops some one gets screwed. This year
it was the fans and last year, Phoenix and Seattle.
In the 71-72 campaign Phoenix finished third in the Midwest
with a 49-33 record and out of the playoffs even though the Suns
had the sixth best record in the NBA and won one more game
than the eventual league runner-up, New York. Seattle won 47
games but that wasn't enough to qualify for the playoffs be-
cause the Supersonics had to compete with both Los Angeles and
Golden State in their division.
The Sonics waged a close war with Golden State but came up
four games short, but this wouldn't be bad (in fact, the team
set home attendance records) -if it were not for the fact that
Baltimore and Atlanta qualified easily for the playoff positions
in the Central Division although neither won half its games. The
Bullets won six less than they lost and the Hawks advanced to
the playoffs with a less than sparkling 36-46 log.
There are other examples of bad teams making the play-
offs while teams which competed in tougher divisions watched
the games on television.
In the first year of divisional play two years ago, a half-
dozen teams ended up where they didn't belong.

The point of these records and statistics is one: The
divisional format either is boring or unfair, and the only way
to solve these problems is to decrease the cumbersome size of
the NBA (17 teams) or somewhat equalize the competition to
make the regular season more than exercise.
