"go-to"

[Jesse Sheidlower]

We seem not to have directly discussed "go-to" (e.g.
"go-to guy") here before, though it's come up in
passing. William Safire's new researcher was asking
about it. I can find 1985 in a basketball context,
but before that all I get are false hits or misdated
newspaperarchive articles, with nothing in some
1970s-early 1980s basketball books I've checked.

Anyone?
