Who is Bill Simmons talking about?
On page 143 in his book, talking about players who used cocaine in the early 80's, Simmons writes:
"...John Lucas, Barnes, Bernard King, Eddie Johnson-and we'll always wonder about some of the others (including one of the era's biggest stars; someone who became infamous in NBA circles for his surreal ability to thrive even after using cocaine)."
Who is he referring to?

Probably Micheal Ray Richardson. He played for the Knicks from 1978-1979 to 1981-1982. In his second year with the Knicks Richardson set Franchise records for assists (10.1) and steals (3.2). These averages made Micheal Ray Richardson the first player in NBA history to lead the league in those categories in the same season. At the start of the 1982-1983 season he was traded to Golden State for Bernard King. Richardson was banned from the NBA for life for testing positive for cocaine in 1986 and reinstated in 1988. He tested positive for cocaine again in 1991, though he disputed those results.

I don't know, but I hate Bill Simmons, because he is so bias and he never admits how good the Lakers are.
