Also a pretty potent back court at that. They scored a total of 49 pts 14 assists. |

Is the Philippines part of Africa, Australia, Antarctica, Europe, or the Americas? |

Congratulations. That's why I love LA. The Dodgers had Jackie Robinson, Sandy Koufax, Fernando Valenzuela, Hideo Nomo, Chan Ho Park.
The Lakers now have the all-Asian American backcourt -- LA is always at the vanguard of American society. |
