"It's like driving the same road to work every day for 20 years You see some wrecks but you never think it'll happen to you It can "But you can't worry about it It's something you put out of your mind because if you start to worry about it you don't produce And when you start to worry about getting hurt that's when it'll happen Says Eaton "In this business things can be very temporary Players come and go pretty quickly Ycu deal with today's game or tomorrow's game and not too much else" v Sloan agrees "Players don't want to think about injuries" he said "But it's always a possibility In this game your legs are put under a lot of pressure Your whole body is" There's an irony to the continued g of the Jazz's Injury-Fre- e Four According to Sparks the team went through it's most unhealthy preseason "in three or four years The problems just didn't involve Bailey Eaton Stockton or Malone Backup point guard Delaney Rudd had a sore knee a broken nose and a sprained shoulder — all before the first game of the regular season Rookie free agent Alan Bannister meanwhile underwent knee surgery and will be sidelined ftt least another two months Also second-yea- r guard Eric Johnson remains on the injured list with a torn foot tendon So in reality the Jazz haven't been without their aches and pains this season But there's been nothing — the Jazz knock on wood — that has been devastating "Nobody wants to ever deal with injuries" said Sloan "Sometimes you have to though because the season doesn't stop You have to keep going Vith the guys you've got" In recent years the Jazz could always count on just about everybody A IAJ 173-14- win "We played them in the preseason 3 so I wasn't conand won cerned one way or the other about how many points we scored" said Fitzsimmons who became the seventh coach to reach the 700 miled stone "This is my 18th year wins just means you've been around a long time Hey I didn't ex- But the more you're in this 1ect 600the more you learn that it's just important to win I don't care what the score was" The sellout crowd of 14487 at the Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum sure did as the Suns eclipsed the first-harecord of 90 points set by the Nuggets on Thursday night when they led San Antonio 3 Phoenix got its 91st point on Kenny Battle's three-poiplay with 3:31 remaining in the half then went on to set an NBA record with 57 second-quarte- r points surpassing the mark of 52 by Baltimore m 1965 Rookie Cedric Ceballos scored 22 of his 32 points in the quarter for the Suns Phoenix had a shot at becoming the first team to 200 points in a game but cooled off in the second half and settled for tying the league record for points in a regulation game The Suns matched the 173 points by Boston against Minneapolis in 1959 on Kevin Johnson's two free throws with 34 seconds remaining "The way Denver pushes the ball up the court so fast and then shoots I'm sure somebody might get 200 against them or maybe they might do it themselves" said Johnson who had 23 points and 17 of his team's 50 assists "But we did some positive thing3 out there" The Suns hitting 17 of their first 19 field goals also tied the NBA record for most points in the first quarter when they led They matched the mark of 50 first set by Syracuse against San Francisco in 1962 and tied three other times Phoenix also set NBA records with 43 first-hal- f field goals and 33 assists The previous records with 40 field goals by Boston came in that 1959 Minneapolis game and Milwaukee had 30 assists against Detroit in 1978 Fitzsimmons joined
