Let's be honest, Bald Spot was in rare flopping form today. Ever time Kobe tried to D him up he would start acting like he got shot. I thought international ball was supposed to be more physical? They called too many flops and ticky tack fouls today.

Another reason why you can't compare the dream team of today to the dream team of 92. Level of competition of today is just so much better.

Exactly the intentional game in 1992' was absolute garbage. They were literally playing bumbs

:pachaha:

You have no idea what you're talking about. The comparisons are all wrong. That Argentina team that played yesterday came within 6 points of this team. Look at the roster of that team compared to the Dream Team. That Argentina team doesn't have one person who would have had a meaningful career back in '92, and yet we're supposed to believe the Dream Team could not come within 6 of this years team? I stand on my belief that the Dream Team beats this year team by double digits. Missing open jumpers and getting outrebounded by the Luis Scola's of the world has nothing to do with "the competition being better".

And you have no idea what you're talking about. The level of competition, style of play and coaching by international competition is wayyyyyyyyyyy better than anything the dream team of 92. The coaches of today would keep jordan, pippen, etc out of the paint for the most part and shooting 3's all game.

You dudes on your 92 dream team nostalgia are a fukking trip....
