32.   His knees are arthritic, his new teammates are of another generation and his old teammates sit in the Lakers board room.

33.   His old Dodgers teammates are dazzled, but certainly not surprised, to see him leading a pennant charge six years later.

34.   I look forward to going back and seeing my old teammates again.

35.   It took almost the whole game, but Ewing and his old reliable teammates finally came through.

36.   It was a hard-fought battle, and McGinest came away from it with even more respect for his old teammate.

37.   Johnson, who played at Nebraska with Piatkowski, is close friends with Kemp and suggested his old teammate would be a perfect victim.

38.   Looking forward to doing in his old Indiana Pacers teammates.

39.   Meanwhile, ex-Clipper Ron Harper spent much of the pregame time in the Clippers weight room reminiscing with old teammates.

40.   Mutombo has never played well against his old Georgetown teammate.
