	IN SERVICE: PERVIS !
		If Ellison was ever going to be a Rick Pitino Celtic, he had to add weight, build muscle, and be ready to work as he never had worked before.
		He had heard all about Ellison and, as he put it yesterday, "I wasn't overly optimistic." His gym is for the maniacal and fanatical.
		Ellison is playing more confidently and, for the first time in years, he is pain free.

		At 6’9”, 210, Pervis was one of the first undersized, wiry “speed-over-size” postmen in the league, a predecessor to the Duncans and Garnetts of the league.
		Pervis wouldn’t back you down to score, he’d throw about 2 quick moves to get around you to score, and when he was on, he was dangerous.
		Pervis went on to average a mere 37 games a year from that magical 1991 season to the rest of his career.

	At home with Pervis and Timi Ellison - the Boston Celtics basketball star Pervis Ellison and his wife Timi show their ...
		Or else her then-boyfriend, NBA star Pervis Ellison, was playing a joke on her.
		To see the house now--a grand, gorgeous, you-have-to-stop-and-stare structure recently appraised at more than $2 million--it is hard to believe that this very house, with its soaring ceilings and take-your-breath-away view, is the same house that sent Timi running to the phone to call her mother the first time she saw it.
		And even Pervis admits that, before the couple contracted the talents of a primarily African-American team of architects and builders that transformed his bohemian bachelor pad into the house of their dreams, Timi's "Addams Family house" comparison wasn't far off the mark.

	The Sporting News : NBA - Take 5 on the Hardwoods
		But "Never Nervous," as Ellison was called, lived up to his handle as he torched Duke's veteran frontline of Alarie, Jay Bilas and David Henderson on 10-of-14 shooting for 25 points with 11 rebounds.
		NBA nightmare: Ellison stayed four years at Louisville but was never named to The Sporting News' All-America first team (he earned a second-tem nod in '89) or carried the Cardinals' to NCAA heights again.
		Ellison has been a serviceable NBA player, but you expect a lot more than Ellison's 9.7 points and 6.8 rebounds career averages entering this season.

	NBA Draft 1999
		Pervis Ellison (1989), Ralph Sampson (1983), and Joe Barry Carroll (1980) were all taken first overall in the draft, but went bust in the NBA.
		And the draft is not a foolproof fix for a franchise's failures.
		Duke's Corey Maggette is the NBA prospect of the month, and while he is unquestionably a great athlete, that is not certain to translate into a great NBA career.

		The only player in U of L history to total both 2,000 points and 1,000 rebounds, Pervis Ellison ended his playing career with the Cardinals as the No. 2 all-time scorer and he became only the second player at U of L to score 2,000 points in his career.
		A consensus All-American in 1989, “Never Nervous Pervis” was named MVP of the 1989 Metro Conference Tournament, an award he also won as a freshman.
		Following his playing career at U of L, Ellison became one of the select few collegiate players and the first for the Cardinals when he was chosen as the No. 1 pick in the 1989 NBA Draft.

	TIME.com: Kentucky's No. 1 Team -- Apr. 14, 1986 -- Page 1
		Another stirring finish last week carried Louisville over Duke, 72-69, by the caprice in the fading seconds of a Cardinal shot so badly missed that only another Louisville man was in a position to jump for the ball: 6-ft. 9-in.
		As wiry as a mouth full of braces, three days shy of 19, Ellison instantly followed the shot into the basket and before long followed the basket to the foul line.
		Ellison became the center of the team only after the incumbent was declared academically ineligible.

		Pervis Ellison didn't go all the way, but he was chilling in the new home of Celtics teammate Greg Minor after the movers had finished bringing in furniture.
		After leading Louisville to the 1986 NCAA Championship and garnering MVP respects in the Final, "Never Nervous" Pervis Ellison surfaced as a prime NBA prospect.

		The craziest part of it all is that Raef will make more money in 2008/9 than Pervis' entire contract was worth (6 years, 12 million).
		Ellison was much more promising but went from to bust to All Star to bust again.

		''I think Pervis Ellison was a big catalyst to our comeback,'' Pitino declared after his team improved its record to 6-6.
		Wherever he was last night, Bill Russell must have felt a chill when Ellison swatted the shot away.
		When the game was over, Ellison, with 4 points on the night, was escorted courtside.

		Sure, he was a fantastic player, but admittedly it was his nickname of "Never Nervous" Pervis that really seemed to endear me to him.
		My older brother was 14 at the time and, I believe, convinced that he was a younger version of either Ellison's teammate Milt Wagner or LSU's Chris Jackson — he wrote "CJ" on the back of his basketball shoes, which also seemed really cool.
		Louisville beat Duke in the 1986 title game, 72-69, Ellison was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player and all seemed pretty stable in the college basketball universe from where I was sitting.

		Milt Wagner ('81), Billy Thompson ('82), Kevin Walls ('84), Tony Kimbro ('85) and Pervis Ellison ('85) combined to led the Cardinals to a 32-7 record and the schools second NCAA championship.
		But, just like Rodney McCray did for the 1980 Cardinals, it was the freshman big man, Pervis Ellison, who propelled the Cards to their second championship.
		Then, Ellison displayed his now famous persona by calmly sinking two free throws with 27-seconds left on the clock to help seal the national title.
