I scanned these two shots from Milwaukee Bucks games in 1986 and 1988 for a franchise project on the team's history. The first is Sidney Moncrief, an all time great, making one of his patented moves to the basket. The other is of Paul Pressey and Randy Brewer on defense. Brewer had a habit of imitating Dizzy Gillespie's puffed out cheeks. I used to shoot games using two M3 ds bodies, one with a 35mm Summicron (V 1) and the other with a 90mm Elmarit. Typically, I'd shoot until I was fairly certain I had two or three decent shots then dash off to the darkroom to process, print and transmit. I'm pretty sure the guys with the motor driven Nikons were having a hard time holding their laughter.
