Alcindor vs Bradley sparks debate among coaches
Duke coach Vic Bubas called a direct comparison of Lew Alcindor and Bill Bradley impossible, noting two different worlds for the UCLA sophomore and Princeton star. Bradley, 6-5, chose Rhodes scholarship over pro offers after Princeton. Alcindor dominates with shot blocks and fast breaks, reshaping college basketball. The AP Top Ten saw Houston’s Elvin Hayes erupt for 43 in a 97-86 win over Centenary, while Charley Parks led Maho State past Rice 87-85 and Phil Jackson scored 35 as North Dakota toppled Chicago Loyola 93-92.
