I cannot forget Frankie Lim being part of the RP team under Ron Jacobs playing in the National Invitational in 1982. Frankie was sitting in the bench when he exploded and hit Willie Pearson of the Clark Airforce US team blindly from the back that nearly knocked him out. I’ve had a bad taste of him and he still does it even though he is old and coaching. He kicked Abueva in the back as he fell. Such a bad example and an embarrassment.
