LIFE •d LIBERTY tai(oL The Thrill of the Game By MIKE GATHMAN Sports Editor The Houston Rockets defeated the Atlanta Hawks 120-107 in the first Atlanta National Basketball Association game held at the Liberty University Vines Convocation Center in Lynchburg, Saturday. An enthusiastic crowd of 8,475 cheered as NBA superstars Dominique Wilkins and Hakeem Olajuwon, both six-time All-Stars, tuned up their games for the upcoming season. The crowd exploded several times when Wilkins slammed the ball home on breakaways. Houston defeated Atlanta fairly easily, winning by 13 points. After 8:05 vs. in the first quarter, the Rockets never relinquished the lead. The only time the game was ever close was in the third quarter when, after being down by 16 points, the Hawks fought back to tie the game but never took the lead. Wilkins led the home team Hawks with 20 points. When asked what he Houston looked to gain from a preseason game, Wilkins said, "It's early, and I am just working on the little things in the game." The Houston team, which led for most of the game, was led by guard , who scored 23 points. None of the Hawks seemed Rockets/ surprised to see Maxwell score big. Wilkins said, "If you watch him a lot, he will do that many times." Rookie guard from University of Nevada-Las Vegas, Stacey Augmon, started the game and scored seven points in 28 minutes for the Hawks. Neither team worked any players for more than 25 minutes because it is still early in the preseason. Olajuwon scored only nine points in 20 minutes of action for the Rockets, and through the first four preseason games he has only averaged 13.7 points
