Threads like this make me feel better about being older (early 30s here). I got to see Lakers vs Celtics rivalry, Jordan win all his rings and watch every single game of the Dream Team.

these fukking kids in here watch some youtube vids and think they know. they really don't know shyt :heh::russ::lolbron::pachaha:

Highlights and stats :snoop:

Come on breh, you can't quantify the influence great players have during the game with just stats and highlights.

highlights? nikka please. There are FULL GAMES that are always shown on NBATV. They show games going all the way back to the 70s. SO dont give me any of your old man bullshyt.

See this shows how slow you are. I never said that in the slightest. You just assumed for god knows. If you actually read my post I was saying how it was a joke to even compare the two teams. But you didnt, you let your old man ignorance kick in.

Use any of the players not on the first Dream Team

PG - Kidd/CP3
SG- Bean/Wade/Ray Allen
SF - Bron/Durant/Odom
PF - Duncan/Love
C- Shaq/Dwight

My thought is Kidd and CP3 can push the pace against that team and both are superior ball handlers and could handle the pressure they might face on ball. Bean and Wade give you scoring 2's and Allen is there purely to have a shooter and it also helps that Bean is a lock down defender. Bron is there for his versatility and all around game, Durant is a flat out scorer and could be used to spread the floor with his shooting. Odom is there because of his versatility, he is a match up nightmare. Duncan provides dependable post scoring if the game slows down. Love gets you boards and can spread the floor at the 4 and actually make some 3's. Shaq is there because he is just a beast and brings extreme physicality to the team and Dwight is the alternative if they want to play more uptempo at times.

I will say this if you talking the redeem team vs the dream team AS they were itd be closer than people think because Bird and Magic were not what they were and Bron would kill Bird with that back of his.

not saying they would beat the Dream Team, but if you put all the nostalgic shyt to the side,,, this team would more than compete with the Dream Team.



bwaahahahahaha,...nikka puh-lease!!

first off this roster has no size....

next this roster does not effectively have the bball iq to stop one dream team player.
