Boston, Philadelphia renew intense NBA rivalry tonight
By United Press International
BOSTON - For both teams, there exists within the NBA schedule a season within a season.
Hidden within the mass of 943 meaningless regular-season games are six that count in the standings and in the rankings. Boston Celtics and Philadelphia 76ers.
Celtic guard Gerald Henderson explained: "There is a big psychological advantage if one team has beaten the other in four out of six regular-season games. They've beaten us in the first just, as New York did, so we really want to go in there and win, so they won't think they have an advantage."
The two best teams in the NBA meet tonight at Philadelphia as they continue to work on their roster.
The Celtics have the best record in the NBA. 28-8, and Philadelphia has the best record in the NBA. 30-14.
recovered and rebuilt after the sweep against the Milwaukee Bucks last spring, and the champion 76ers are off their form, as proven by their recent offensive misfire against the Knicks — 73 points.
The history of the competition is that one team surges ahead, and the other adjusts. Philly has a better frontline so she can get back to the 76ers who respond by signing Malone.
There is no longer a measurable advantage to winning the division. Last year the winner got to take a week off and let the old injuries heal.
Robert Parish, the key to Boston's Wednesday night thrashing of Golden State, 135-112, by scoring 33 points and grabbing 14 rebounds in just 30 minutes, said his goal was to make Warriors center J. B. Carroll work." He told reporters so I kept going after him, and I'll run (Malone) just like I ran J. B.

Simons, a 33-year-old who spends much of his time as an investment
broker, has a severe problem with his eyes that often requires him to wear two contact lenses on his left eye and another on his right.
"I've been legally blind in both eyes for some time," he said. "I couldn't play the game without the lenses." I'd hit the dirt and miss the ball."
