Never played Nigeria either.Comment -
This team would take dream team to a game 7. And Kobe, LeBron, and Durant would win game7Comment -
What would the line be?Originally posted by pacoComment -
92 team beats this years version of the dream team in probably 5 games in a 7 game series. Especially if all players were in there prime 92 team much better team.Comment -
For seriesOriginally posted by Iwinyourmoney
Dream team -150
2012 team +130Comment -
Paco 3 players are going to beat 11 hall of famers haComment -
agree. 2008 team a different story though.Originally posted by beerman2619Cause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -
i think goats right 08 team better then this one.Comment -
This team has 7 future hall of famers. Much more athletic players in today's game. BBack then players were playing against more scrubs than stars. Barely any super teams besides lakers/celtics.Originally posted by beerman2619Comment -
92 team > 08 teamComment -
So the one that struggled to beat Spain in the gold medal game?Originally posted by thetrinity
And this years Spain team is better than that one.
So you guys think Spain has a good chance to beat the us right?
No I didn't think so.
You guys are really just saying shit to be edgy. Classic goater right there.Comment -
Nigerian team probably more athletic than Dream Team 92Comment -
US had a bad game against Spain and still won by DD. This team missing 2 of the top 6-7 players in the world. Guaranteed 1st ballot HOFmer in Dwayne Wade. Stronger bench. Dwight Howard down low makes the biggest different. He can't be replaced. He would dominate any big man from the Dream team on the defensive end and the glass.Originally posted by InTheDrink
Barkley? He would get eaten alive by Anthony. No chance to guard a player like that or Kevin Durant.
08 would have a better chance because of the guys that could guard Jordan. You have 2 of the greatest guard defenders ever in Wade and Bryant in their primes to take turns. and throw Lebron in there too if either gets tired.
It's about matchups guy.
Who's gonna guard Robinson or Malone on this team? Tyson Chanlder? Yeah right. 08 team had Dwight.Cause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -
No way in hell this years Spain team is better than the 2008 version. Youre talking outta your ass. Navarro is hurt and Rubio is out. Their backcourt is hurting.Originally posted by InTheDrink
This USA team is missing Dwade, Howard and Bosh. Id rather have Lamarcus over Anthony Davis. Too bad they were injured.Comment -

Rubio was 17 = non factorOriginally posted by convick
Gaining Ibaka makes this team far better than losing Navarro considering they're guard heavy as it is. Marc Gasol is three times the player he was. Pau might be the key if he's gonna keep playing like a pussbag or if he's going to play like an nba champ.
A front line of Gasol, Gasol and ibaka is pretty effin goodComment -
Westbrook is a long shot
look at what hes doing at 23 years old
If he stays healthy he's a lockComment -
D. Williams long shot....rest I agree but A. Davis is still young.Comment -
It's funny that goat thought Chris Paul was a lock in 2008 and he must have had his crystal ball out to see that bosh was moving to the heat to become a hall of famer
You guys don't think about your posts muchComment -
Rubio at 17 was still great. Even at 15 he was good.
Comment -
LmaoOriginally posted by CanuckG
yeah he got abused in the 08 olympics
im not even going to the link....look at his assist to turnover ratio for those games and tell me how good it was considering he was a non factor scoring wise. Sure he's improved Greatly since but he was useless back then.Comment -
He's a smaller guy but not useless.Comment -
Not now he isn't and they'll miss him but he was useless thenOriginally posted by CanuckG
He was a turnover machine who didn't shoot for shit
He got abused against the USA and didn't play well against anyone else but because he was young he got a major pass from...everyone.Comment -
I always thought this team is better than the dream team.. And take into consideration that it couldve been way better had Howard, Wade and Rose not been injured. Esp HowardComment -
And isiah didn't get invited and Hakeem didn't get on board til 93. So what's your point?Originally posted by daonlyplayaComment -
The 1992 team would kill this team.
Everyone would be afraid to guard Magic.Comment -
Isiah wasn't hurt though. Howard and Co. are actually injured. Anyways, I think it's stupid to compare these two teams.Originally posted by InTheDrinkComment -
big deal 92 dream team would run circles around this team and would break some noses tooComment -
OH YES THEY DiDN'T!!!

Magic was at the end of his career. He wouldn't be able to guard anyone defensively. You had L. Bird and Magic who were both weak defenders at that time yet no one considers that because most here did not really watch '92 dream team. You think Larry Bird is gonna guard Lebron James? Magic is gonna chase Cp3 around? No chance.Originally posted by The Giant
The Dream Team's advantage would be the interior. Their perimeter players would get destroyed aside from Jordan.Cause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -
