Oh man, another gun import from the late 80's and early 90's gone. Teamed up with Dean Uthoff and Bruce Bolden, they (Spectres), were quite the team coached by Goorjian. Pushed the brilliant 1991 Perth team all the way in the Grand Final.

Oh no. Leader now Lockhart? Way too soon.

I remember the Spectres. Uhtoff, Bolden and Lockhart were an incredible front line.

They actually pushed the 91 Wildcats to 3 games after losing at home they were that good.

The Saints and Spectres were my two favourite teams when I started following the NBL. I loved Wayne Larkins because I was a short arse, but Kent was definitely a favourite too. Loved the way he went about it. RIP.
