Rumors fly around Alcindor
NBA denies secretly drafting Lew
MILWAUKEE (UPI) — The president of the Milwaukee Bucks said yesterday that any reports that there had been a secret coin flip that gave the expansion club the rights to Lew Alcindor were "absolutely untrue."
Ray Patterson said further
that the coin flip-when there is one-will be open to the press and the public to show that the National Basketball Association is using no "shenanigans" in its effort to win the 7-foot-2 UCLA star from the rival American Basketball Association.

The man who had apparently originated the report that Milwaukee had won the coin flip said it had no basis in fact. He made the comment in an interview with The Milwaukee Journal.
"It would make a travesty of the present season," Patterson said. "Just imagine a team trying to win a game and facing the temptation of getting a player of Alcindor's stature. That's like giving a ball club a split personality. What would be the sense of finishing the season?
Meade told the Journal he had read the story in an early edition of the Minneapolis Tribune. The man who wrote the story for the Tribune, Tom Briere, said he had got it "in a roundabout way from a person who is familiar with the NBA."
Briere told Bob Wolf of the Journal that this source had told him that Milwaukee board chairman Wes Pavalon "would pay anything to sign Alcindor."
"I had no real basis in fact," Briere said.
Briere said the story ran only in the early editions of the Tribune and was taken out to make room for a story on a Minnesota Pipers game.
John Erickson, general manager of the Bucks, termed the reports "entirely irresponsible."
The report quoted Lee Meade, public relations director of the rival American Basketball Association, with the statement that Milwaukee had won the rights to Alcindor.
Patterson said the Bucks, currently playing their best
"Our league's coin flip will not be held until the last place teams in each division are finally determined," he said.
A spokesman for NBA President Walter Kennedy called the report of the early NBA draft "ridiculous."
