The college draft which bars a player who is turning professional from playing for any team other than the one that selects him is more than 40 years old The right of first refusal however was not

several im- portant issues including paranteed contracts severance pay and protection for player reps but called a complicated impasse over pension one of the major problems “We believe their position is a factor designed to derail the process” he said “No deal is going to be held up by our position on free agency But nothing is falling into place on pensions” Allen also accused management of introducing a new negative element contract in by insisting on a pact that had place of the three-yea- r already been agreed upon in principle Normally the labor agreement parallels the league’s television contract which this time is for three years “We’re a little concerned about a pattern that seems to be developing a pace slowed down so that some time tommorrew management will consider

without a formal trial on the key issues in the union's bid for unrestrained free agency US District Judge Dickinson granted the National Basketball Players Association’s motion for summary judgment on the issue of whether the NBA’s college draft salary cap and right of first refusal are exempt from federal antitrust laws Debevoise agreed to hear oral arguments Nov 23 and to rule without a full trial The union had hoped for a ruling before the season opens in early November The union filed suit last week charging the NBA rules restricting players’ ability to move among the league’s 23 teams as free agents violate the Sherman and Clayton antitrust acts A decision that NBA rules are covered by antitrust laws would effectively win the remaining issues in the suit for the union players’ association lawyer James Quinn said He said all recent court decisions in other professional sports have favored players’ freedom of movement IThe NBA argues the draft salary cap and first refusal rules have been included in collective bargaining agreements like the one that expired at the end of last season and thus are covered by the "labor exemption” from antitrust legislation '“It seems incredible to me that the antitrust laws could be violated by the labor contract" NBA lawyer Jeffrey Mishkin said at the hearing The contract between the NBA teams and the union expired June 15 and talks on a new agreement have gone nowhere The players association suit has been widely interpreted as an effort to strengthen its position at the bargaining table "I’ve become a pawn of the negotiating process” Debevoise said during Friday’s hearing The union said however it chose to go to court rather than strike because the players want to avoid “the kind of chaos that we see" in the

was their first discussion since last May “We told him that we’ve made an honest effort to move him” Jazz Coach Frank Layden said “We will continue to do that We also told him that right now we'd like him to come out play hard and play with enthusiasm I think he understands that I think be wants to be a professional" face-to-fa- According to Layden the possibility of no trade was also discussed “He's got to realize we might not be able to move him” the Jazz coach said “In that case I don't think he wants to have a sour attitude I real- - ize things didn't work out for him last year But this is a new year and I think that's the approach he should take “I understand he was frustrated last year But he's gotta understand that we were frustrated too I also realize that he’s a good player and he can help this team But he needs the right attitude to do it” Tripucka’s willingness to discuss his concerns with the media is one aspect of this situation that needs correcting Layden said Citing the Knicks' Jawann Oldham as a player whose public outbursts have hurt his marketability Layden said he told Tripucka that other NBA coaches avoid trades involving playwho publicly complain too often

gave them reason to think otherwise" he said “I mean it never crossed my mind go out there and just wander around I'm not that kind of person And what good would that do anybody? “But I did reassure them I told them I’d play hard) And they said ‘You do your job and we’ll do ours’ ’’ Apparently that would be just fine with Layden “I want him to play so well that he’d make himself very marketable" the Jazz coach said ”1 think that’s the Kelly: “Take my word for it Coaches in this league don't want guys like that They don’t need them' ” When asked about his meeting with Jazz officials Tripucka shrugged "It was all right but it wasn't anything new” he said Just a repeat more or less They told me they were trying to trade me and in the meantime they wanted to make sure I was going to play
