I remembered watching him, along with Willis and Frazier, on the 1969-1970 Knicks.

Hmm, the Knicks and the White Sox from 40 years ago... no wonder I didn't know of him. I'm not trying to be mean, I just don't understand why this is "breaking news."

Anytime a former star athlete passes away it seems to be breaking news and is tragic. He is a Hall of Famer and member of the NBA's 50 Greatest Players. It would be the same for the death of a NFL Hall of Famer who played for the Packers of the 60s. Todd

I know him more for his time with the Pistons. He was a player/coach at age 25 or something like that.

Wasn't he also a GM or something for the Knicks later on?

Snicker. Actually, I wasn't that far off with the GM comment: In 1982 DeBusschere returned to the Knicks and was appointed executive vice president and director of basketball operations. He retained the post until the start of the 1986-87 season. |

Yeah, that's what I was getting at. I thought it was the father, though, not the mother. Or maybe it was the Monkee's uncle, har har!
