Rambis will find out soon lethargy rules in La-la Land.(Kurt Rambis named Los Angeles Lakers' coach)(includes related basketball articles) Author/s: Dave D'Alessandro Issue: March 8, 1999 As a basketball study, the Lakers always come across as a badly written novel. You grow impatient with some of the characters, wishing they would be smarter or more expansive or less cramped by circumstancemore scope, greater range, fresher dialogue, anything to show they care about what's happening to them. They all seem to have potential in Chapter 1, but by the time the plot starts to form, you realize you've read it all before. Go somewhere, you tell them. Do something. Fulfill your potential. Show some originality. Off the court, however, the Lakers are always an interesting read, glutted with characters who suffer from an acute overabundance of personalityfrom the dippy owner on down to the androgynous power forward. And the only predictable result is that the good guys ultimately get squashed in the final chapter.

Extractions: Charlie Hough, one of baseball's genuine characters, was handed his walking papers as Dodgers pitching coach. Meantime, Kurt Rambis, a basketball original, awaits his fate as head coach of the Lakers. These jobs should come with a surgeon general's warning: Somebody has to take a fall, and upper management rarely fires itself. Seeing their names linked, it's striking how similar Hough and Rambis are: good people thrust into impossible situations and held accountable for the failures of the work-ethic challenged. How ironic it is these gentlemen would be roasted over the underachievement of rich guys in their care. Hough and Rambis were poster boys for maximum achievement in their time in the sun, taking modest athletic gifts to amazing heights. Hough was a weak-hitting infielder who converted to pitching in the low minors, desperately clutching a thread of hope. He developed a career-saving knuckleball and floated it for 25 seasons, winning 216 games seven more than Hall of Famer Don Drysdale. Making a seamless midcareer transition from reliever to starter, Hough appeared in 858 games, 16th all time. He has been everywhere, done everything, collecting tons of friends and no known enemies.

It'd only be about Thursday." Terry Francona, Jordan's minor league baseball manager on giving Jordan his daily meal money: "There's something odd about going up to Michael Jordan and slipping him $16 a day."

Of course, he would be only 12 years old." And a college one that I loved Ron Shumate (Southeastern Missouri coach) on his team's poor shooting: "It's so bad that the players are giving each other high fives when they hit the rim."

MISCELLANY The Chicago Cubs gave Gary Gaetti a 40th birthday present yesterday, signing him for the rest of the season. St. Louis designated the third baseman for assignment Aug. 8, and he was released Friday. Gaetti was in uniform yesterday for Chicago's game against the Cardinals. Details of the contract were not disclosed. To make room for Gaetti, the Cubs optioned infielder Jose Nieves to Triple A Iowa. Gaetti was hitting .265 with 11 homers and 43 RBIs in his third season with the Cardinals. But he became expendable when the Cardinals acquired Fernando Tatis from Texas in a July 31 trade. ... Attorney Robert Shapiro sued Darryl Strawberry yesterday, claiming he failed to pay $100,000 in fees for a contract settlement Shapiro negotiated with the Los Angeles Dodgers four years ago. Shapiro, who represented O.J. Simpson, apparently has been seeking payment from Strawberry since 1994. Detroit Red Wings coach Scotty Bowman had his left knee replaced yesterday and is recovering at a New York hospital. Bowman, who led the Red Wings to consecutive NHL championships, reportedly isn't expected to return to the team until at least late October. Bowman, who had angioplasty last month, has said he will not decide whether to coach the Wings until his health issues are resolved. The Wings expect him to return, however. The Detroit Free Press reported yesterday that assistant coaches
Extractions: The President. Well, I thank you all very much for that greeting, but believe me these are the ones that deserve the applause. And it is we who today will say, ``Hail to the Lakers.'' It was a great pleasure to welcome all of you to the White House. Your entire championship series down to yesterday's great win was an inspiration. And all of you showed America what pride, determination, and guts can accomplish when they're combined with some of the best talent on the floor. Yesterday afternoon, it really was showtime in the Boston Garden. And your victory is all the greater because you won it from another truly great team. When you went to the Garden, you knew that the next two games were going to decide the championship either way, and you knew that even though you were playing in Boston it wasn't going to be any tea party. [Laughter] Kareem says that yesterday's victory was just like the Brooklyn Dodgers' breakthrough against the Yankees in the 1955 World Series. Well, Kareem, I remember that series, so I think you may be, as they sometimes say of me, showing your experience. [Laughter] But yesterday all you showed was why you've been voted the most valuable player of the series. As so many said, you're 38, but you played like you were 25. And that 14-foot sky hook with only 61 seconds left in the game was truly a thing of beauty. All I can say is we're all looking forward to seeing you defend the Lakers' championship title next year.

I probably want these guys. What we have is each other.'" Minnesota GM Kevin McHale on Kevin Garnett's tirade in an ESPN Magazine interview: "Look, guys say a lot of things and I don't put too much credence in it.
