Malone, who was first in the NBA in rebounding with 15.3 per game and was fifth in scoring with an average of 24.5, also was the MVP of the NBA cham- - i .. E GQJD WMEDA - pionship series, during which the 76ers swept Los Angeles in four games. THE LAST player to win both the regular season andchampionship series MVP was Kareem Abdul-Jab- bar, who was known as Lew Alcindor when he did it in 1971 for the Milwaukee Bucks. Malone, who also won the NBA's MVP award in 1978-79 and 1981-82, received 69 first-place votes from a nationwide panel of 75 media members. On a 10-7-5-3-1 basis for first through fifth-place votes, Malone had 720 points to 364 for Boston's Larry Bird, 304 for Earvin "Magic" Johnson of Los Angeles, 226 for Sidney Moncrief of Milwaukee and 112 for Julius Erving of Philadelphia. Bird had one first-place vote, Johnson two and Erving three. OTHER honors announced at the lun- cheon were rookie of the year Terry Cummings of San Diego, coach of the year Don Nelson of Milwaukee, com- eback player of the year Paul Westphal of New York, defensive player of the year Moncrief and the "Sixth Man" award-winner Bobby Jones of Philadelphia. The latter two honors were awarded for the first time this season. Malone was not present at the awards ceremony, and 76ers Coach Billy Cun- ningham accepted the MVP trophy in his place. "Moses came to Philadelphia and fit in so well with Erving," Cunningham said. "Having two players like that makes it so easy for a coach. Moses doesn't have the natural talent some other players in the NBA have, but he's a special athlete and exemplifies what you can do with hard work." Cunningham said Malone has "a great deal of pride and drive. He just will not be denied." 4 4 4
