    Ya know, I kept reminding myself to post this all last summer.

    In 1995, they started doing the NBA Champions.
    It was a bi-yearly tourney.
    THe rockets played in London.


    1997 - Chicago Bulls - Paris France

    1999 - Spurs - I forgot where.


    I think the started in 1987 with the Milwaukee Bucks.

    I think the 1991 team was the lakers. I don't remember anymore than that.
