Page 8 The Michigan Daily -Thursday, October 31, 1985 Pistons deep Sixed in OT, 132-125* I RB'Sa By Barb McQuade PHILADELPHIA (UPI) - Moses Malone scored 31 points last night, in- cluding 7 in overtime, to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to a 132-125 victory over the Detroit Pistons.

Sedale Threatt scored two straight baskets for Philadelphia and rookie Terry Catledge added a third as the 76ers took the lead for good at 119-115. Julius Erving had 24 points. and Catledge 19 for Philadelphia. Detroit got 20 points from Kelly Tripucka.

The 76ers received nine points each from Erving and Maurice Cheeks in the third quarter to take a 94-86 lead. Erving scored seven straight points for Philadelphia late in the quarter.. wolverines biggest task " " .BALLOON SALE preventing complacency R OY TARPLEY'S knee injury had everyone holding their breath earlier this week. The possibility of losing last year's Big Ten Player-of-the-Year was a grim one indeed to the Michigan basketball team. Tarpley's injury turned out to be minor - just a slight hyperextension - and he'll be back on the court in two weeks. But Michigan head coach Bill Frieder didn't want to take any chances. Tarpley had arthroscopic surgery performed on the knee to "take all the precautions," the Wolverine head man said. Frieder realizes his team's success is contingent upon its health. "Last year we had great luck," Frieder said of the 26-4 campaign. "We were in- jury free." Health is a must if Michigan is to repeat a Big Ten title this season. The Wolverines have solid players coming off the bench, but they aren't the wizards who make up the starting five. Perhaps just as important as physical health, however, is mental fit- ness. There's no worse ailment than a bruised ego. Attitude is as in- strumental to winning in college basketball as the tuba player is to the Ohio State band show. Last year pre-season favorite Illinois thought it had a cakewalk to the top of the Big Ten and ended up with a pie in the face. The complacency that can haunt a "can't miss" team could befall the Michigan squad, which is sure to be ranked highly, if not number one, in most pre-season polls. Last year, the young Wolverines took the con- ference by storm on their way to the Big Ten championship. But this season, all eyes are upon them. They must play with the same intensity to repeat. "You never know what's inside," Frieder said. "You never know if they realize how hard they're going to have to work to be successful. No mat- ter how hard you have to work to get to the top, you have to work harder to, stay there." Unselfish play will be the other key to keeping Michigan healthy and happy. Balanced scoring and teamwork are what gave Michigan-the best use of its immense talent last year. Tarpley led the team with 19.3 points per game, but three other player averaged in double figures - Antoine Joubert, 13.9, Gary Grant, 13.6 and Rich Rellford, 11.4. Should anyone try to showcase his own skills and play superstar, the results could be disastrous. The strength of the Wolverines lies in the vast array of dimensions to their game. If someone has an off night, they've got plenty to fall back on. "We have to work to continue to play unselfishly," Frieder said. "That's a characteristic they really developed last year and they played extremely well together. They've got to maintain that." So far the Michigan helmsman hasn't seen indication of anyone's plans to stage a one-man show. "They know what you have to do to win," he said. "They've been team-oriented right along. That attitude is Michigan's apple a day. HARDWOOD KNOCKS: Freshman Glen Rice has cut off the orange tail he was sporting on the back of his head. Looks like the clean-cut look is in.
