CONTINUED FROM PAGE IC EL1" significant a role as he hasl" 35-14 Staak said "But he got into a good situation here" For the doubters the first half of Monday's game provided plen- ty of fodder Rogues was so overwhelmed by Miami guard Steve Smith that Bristow had to order Bogues and Hawkins to switch on defense so Bogrues could guard Brian Shaw Shaw finished with 10 points seven rebounds and seven assists On offense Bogues was awful in the half missing wide-open shots But in the second half Bogues found his rhythm He hit a jumper off a pass from David Wingate He fed Mourning in transition for a dunk He kept passing to Dell Curry for jumpers and Curry kept hitting And he hit a jumper of his own from 20 feet to give Charlotte a 94-89 edge with 1:15 to play Then he stole the ball from Rice leading to a three-point play by Kenny Gattison And he hit two free throws to seal the game with 81 seconds showing Bogues's offense improved when Johnson and Mourning were out with injuries In a stretch where Johnson missed 31 games and Mourning 22 Bogrues raised his average from 96 to 102 points per game He has kept shooting with Mourning and Johnson back and is now averaging a career-high 110 points per game He also has 705 assists and 155 turnovers "Unfortunately Larry and Alonzo went out and I was called upon to do a lot more scoring do a lot more things with the basketball" Bogues said "Allan gave me the freedom to do so He put the basketball in my hands "I feel real comfortable in there I feel I can make something happen one way or another" 6 7-3 W4 28-9 18-20 12Y2 3-7 1-2
