Nice work! You cracked the case. A lot of great discoveries this week on the forum. When and where was that game played?


How about a photo of that MEARS New Orleans Jazz Warm-Up (any player)?

I assume I couldn't open the photo in my e-mail, because it was too large. Thanks anyway.
Looks like a warm-up tournament for the olympic team maybe 1980, before the boycott?.

I see Tiny in the background. That "USA" jersey looks like one posted on the forum a few years ago.

This is a Dennis Johnson uniform. It was sent to me by a collector who had questions about its origin.

Another pic of the same game

i agree with 1980 USA men's basketball team, coached by Dave Gavitt, (the youngest team in the history of men's Olympic basketball ?). The team played in a series of exhibition games known as the 'Gold Medal Series,' and won over four of the five NBA All-Star teams they played in exhibition games held across the country.

The one handed movement shot remember me Mark Aguirre...

The roster was
Mark Aguirre
Rolando Blackman
Sam Bowie
Michael Brooks
Bill Hanzlik
Alton Lister
Rodney McCray
Isiah Thomas
Darnell Valentine
Danny Vranes
Buck Williams
Al Wood

The info in my last post was for the photo.
