thanks for the link. now that they mention the "breakers" i think you might be right. All I have to go on is the image burned into my memory of the mascot dressed up as what looks to be a Lake dancing at halftime for the los angeles team. However, naming the Chicago team the "Bulls" on the game would have violated the NBA team's license right? I could have sworn all the teams (except new york) had similar names or at least mascots that represented the same color as the actual NBA team.
Chicago Bulls = Chicago Ox
Los Angeles Lakers = Los Angeles Lakes (or Breakers)
Boston Celtics = Boston Frogs (or bullfrogs. regardless, both are green)
New York Knicks = Well, that was the team where they gave up trying to get creative i guess.
I'm going home now to dig up my emulators.
