They're called against rookies alot and the refs give the benefit to the established players-at least that seems to be a trend." And the long 85 game NBA schedule. It must be a big adjustment for the younger players. "You have to watch what you eat and be very careful of your diet. You also have to keep up your sleep-like to- night we play our third game in three days. I can see where it (the road) could have a tendency to be very grueling in the long run. Players on the team really value their privacy. That's why the Lakers pay the extra amount for single rooms when we travel." How does the team go about practicing when they're on a long road trip playing several games during the course of the week? Not that glamorous "If we have a day off in between games, we'll practice. But you usually can't get into the arena to shoot around on days off because they have hockey and other activities going on. So we'll go to local high schools or colleges to practice. On days like today with three games in three nights, we just go to the arena about a hour before the game to shoot around." Coming from a physical league like the Big Ten you must have been prepared for the physical nature of the pro game. What about the holding that goes on around the boards? "You have to use discretion when you do it and how you do it. When you block a man out on rebounds you use your arms to feel your man-where he is. In the pros, some- times he'll grab your arms, move them or throw them away and go on by you. Generally you have to learn new techniques to compete." Unity essential What about the Lakers as a team?
