| Notes: |
| Van Winsen says only that Rice 'had a good start' but by the end of the series of games Bird 'was considerably ahead'. Normally, I don't include such vague statements, but I include a soft result of 2-1 for Bird here to reflect this statement since a few days later, they scored +2-2 in another set of 4 games, which would be misleading in itself in not showing that Bird had the edge. |
