Brings back memories of my senior year at West Virginia University: As a transplanted New Yorker (as many WVU graduates are) studying for finals -- readying physically for the Officer's Basic course at Ft. Benning (3.2% beer couldn't hurt you, right?) watching that game, cheering for Jerry West (WVU's finest), cheering for my "home team," the Knicks, drawing the ire of everyone at the bar in Morgantown, West Virginia (no "Sports Bars" in those days -- just an off campus dive called "Sleepy's" owned by Don Knott's sister Mildred).

Many fans will miss Dave DeBusschere -- those too young will have missed an era, a basketball game that no longer exists and a true gentleman of the sport.

Great tribute.
