Description
Facing off against the Nets in the 1980s, opportunistic scorers had to think twice when Buck Williams was on the prowl. An elite rebounder with four All-Defensive Team selections to his name, Williams played like he took it personal anytime an opposing player entered his domain. The New York Knicks found out the hard way, with a once-promising transition attack failing quickly thanks to the three-time All–Star’s heads-up help defense. Seizing the opportunity, Williams glides into the lane to meet a would-be scorer at the rim and rejects his shot so viciously that it sails out of bounds. The Nets’ franchise leader in rebounds made magic on both sides of the ball, posting 30 points on 11-for-13 shooting, while adding a beefy 23 rebounds, four assists and three blocks in a 126-121 victory on March 13, 1987.
