Bob Blackburn: “The inbounds goes to DJ, hard up the right side, into Sikma at the top of the key, well defended by Unseld, back out to Brown on the left side, fakes right, goes up, a shot from 35 feet....GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD! Freddy from wayyyyy downtown again and the Sonics again lead the Bullets by 22 points”!!! (It seems like it all happened only yesterday....)

That was sweet - Blackburn was a great announcer, wasn't he? I was downtown one time renewing my CCW and came upon Slick Watts standing by his Cadillac which was out of gas - we helped him out and he comped us some good seats.
Imagine if Fred Brown played when the three point shot was in effect - and a good seat at the Coliseum went for $7 IIRC.
