...Cunningham's primary contribution remains the redefinition of dance itself. It is a vision that has inspired a host of younger choreographers, most nourished in Cunningham's own company: Paul Taylor, Judith Dunn, Deborah Hay, Jack Moore, Dan Wagoner, Yvonne Rainer.

Adds Cousy, the Celtics' superlative playmaker of old: "The problems of the Celtics are an accumulation of things I see across the board in the N.B.A.: no-cut contracts, big money. The system has created a Frankenstein, and he's finally turning on his maker. Younger players are very aware that they've got to put the ball in the hole, and if they do, it will result in substantial salary benefits. By the time they get to be professionals, it's difficult to convince them that basketball is a team sport and that guys play together...
