John Starks on headbutting Reggie Miller.

The most emblematic play to prove it was Stark's famous headbutt he served to Reggie Miller in the 1993 playoffs. The Pacers were the Knicks' biggest rival in the 90s, and no player loved to go into MSG and annoy the crowd as much as Reggie Miller. An all-time trash talker, Miller brought his A-game for New York every time. But, Reggie did more than talking. He also used every dirty trick in the book to get under a player's skin. That night, Miller repeatedly elbowed Starks, and after a while, Starks decided that was enough. As he explained it, you had to earn the respect of other players in the league back then. They would test you, and if you didn' fight back, it would never stop.
