Before their EuroChallenge game against ZZ Leiden, Besiktas honored departing Deron Williams by allowing him to lead a fan chant and then sending his No. 8 to the rafters in a ceremony at Besiktas Milangaz Arena. Not bad for a guy that only played 15 games in Turkey and had averages of 21.8 points and 6.5 assists during his stay in Istanbul. I wonder if the Nets will do the same if he bolts? Probably not.
