The Croatian team in 1992 had 3 NBA hall of famers, and the Dream Team beat them by 32. How many future hall of famers are on any ONE of the international teams today? One on two different teams that I can see, but THREE? Laettner is the ONLY player on the Dream Team that is not in the HOF. How many of this team's players will end up there? My guess - not 11.

That's only part of the picture. Yes, the difference between Team USA and the world has been closing all this time. But the ability of the average pro baller, even in the NBA, has also been increasing this entire time. Having the pool of basketball talent/competition widen from just the U.S. to the entire globe means the most elite players who make it to the pros now are on average much better than the pros in past decades. So even if the current team doesn't stack up as well in recent stats compared to the Dream Team, the relative baselines that those stats are derived from are drastically different between the two eras.

USA just won by 24 points against Serbia and Jokic yesterday. I think they still got it, and the fact KD went for 100% from and 2 AND 3 the whole game was crazy. Edit: Another near 20 point blowout (17 point differential) against south sudan yesterday, the same team that they were close with during the exhibition matches. Personally I think the team during the exhibitions were just finding their footing and building chemistry. Edit 2: Yeah, so far this team won almost all of their matches by 20+ point, all they need now is to just win the gold medal and every negative narrative against them will be broken. Edit 3: Final edit I'll be doing before the finals, I watched the Serbia vs USA game yesterday and while it was insane. I have to give Jokic and em' some credit, but all the props to Wardell Stephen Curry! He was shooting the lights out in the building that game it was actually insane.

Surprised you glossed over a tell in the 92 Gold Medal game. The Dream Team's closest score was 30 points against 7 NBA players. Mind you, those guys weren't on their level, and most, not all, most were middling NBA players, but that was an indicator of what the future held. After 1992, the level of international play and skilled players grew rapidly. Many of the gifted kids who dreamed of playing football (soccer), suddenly found themselves inspired by the Dream Team, not to mention scouts keying in on guys already on the scene like Peja, Dirk, Ilgauskaus and such. Those Olympics altered the landscape of not just NBA basketball, but global hoops to the point where taking a foreign player, especially number one, is no longer considered a risk or project.

What you are seeing is the KZbin effect. I am from Sweden and grew up playing basketball. I am born 1991. When I grew up it was hard to find good clips and drills to practice. A Ganon Baker DVD was the best source to basketball drills and Yinka Dare video highlights of some players. When I play Swedish 16-18 year old I am honestly surprised by how much better and drilled they are compared to when I grew up. Today, a youth coach can easily get coaching drills from NBA skill coaches and implement it into their training and Sweden has produced two players that were drafted in this years NBA draft. It is a crazy evolution. Players Swedish youth players are busting out moves that I only saw done in mixtapes of US youth players whilst dunking and being athletic freaks. During my time, teams weren’t as athletic.

And even with Gretzky and Lemieux playing together in 1987 with what was hockey's version of the 1992 Dream Team, they barely beat Russia in the Canada Cup in 1987 with all three games ending 6-5 (including 30 minutes of sudden death for Canada in Game 2). Further, Gretzky only got silver only World Cup of Hockey and didn't even medal in his only Olympic appearance.

Now local schools have so much talent that some kids going off playing for colleges in the US, and there's even been a kid playing in the NBA from the area (Jeremy Sochan).

( I know this was a joke ), but, Friend: I wish for you to know this: Christ is the people's savior, and no one is their own savior; Most people ( including “Christians” are not on the straight and narrow path that leads to eternal life, but on the broad road that leads to hell; Good people do not go to heaven, but forgiven sinners do; those forgiven sinners are only those who are in the faith of Christ Himself, not those who live by the "bible rulebook", but those who obtain their righteousness in the One who makes righteous, through faith- Friends BELIEVE in JESUS to wash YOUR SINS CLEAN- and then REPENT your sins! Faith and repentance come in the same basket, or there is no salvation; Only by the name of Jesus the Christ the Son of God do we have a route of entry into the kingdom of Heaven. Enter into that perfect peace and oneness with God through Jesus the Narrow Gate, the Life, the Good Shepherd, the rock (foundation). We acquire righteousness unto salvation, through our faith in the Savior Christ ( roughly can be swapped out with the word trust ) alone. But faith that is true, and saves a person, is not fruitless ( non-productive ). That natural fruit of an apple tree is an apple, the natural fruit of a pear tree is a pear, and the natural fruit of saving faith is repentance and the Holy Spirit indwelling a true believer ( being a believer is not just believing in the existence of God, or in the existence of Jesus and going to Church on sundays, but being transformed and renewed as a creature by the faith of the Gospel ( the Gospel is the “good news”, of Jesus's death and resurrection to win salvation for believers ) This is no game, and this hopefully was a very convicting read; this is a very summarized version of what you can read in Matthew, Mark, Luke, John- May Christ be with you 🩷

This is the case with all sports. The US invented association basketball like the UK invented organised Cricket or even Football (Soccer) but due to globalisation and colonisation each sport saw greater exposure from vast range of countries around the world. As time passed this exposure turned to growth and a demonopolising of US/UK dominance, European players are the consensus best in basketball, South Americans do the same in soccer and Indian/Australians have a stronghold in cricket.

I think a part of this is also caused by the approach of the players coming into this. In '92, the bulls GM had signed toni kukoc to try and replace Scottie Pippen, and thanks to that, MJ and Pippen were playing with a huge chip on their shoulders, motivated to show everyone that they're better and shouldn't be replaced. Now, there isn't such a thing to play for, the biggest thing similar we can take is the Noah Lyles "world champions of what" quote.

Sometimes NBA had to negotiate with the clubs and hold on to draft rights for 3 years.

For example in FIBA rules there is no such thing as 3 second paint violation rule which lets team to plant a big center on the paint to defend the rim as much as they want but on the other hand in NBA the 3 second violation rule benefits the offensive player to get to the bucket more easily. Even Luka Doncic said it is easier ti score in NBA than in Euro league. All international player are used to the physical game and NBA players are used to more athletic type of game.

I don't worry about it losing I know it will lose, the only chance they have is the Lakers move, meaning 300 more FTs than any of their opponents, just like they are already showing. South Sudan won that game my friend, but US got like 18 more FTs, a bunch of travels where not called, a bunch of FTs in favor of Sudan no calls, it's just disgusting. I much prefer the US to lose than to win with cheats.

Literally lead them in scoring and pretty much got them a few wins by himself. I think the reason he didn't get mentioned is that his BPM and WS/48 was really low because he was coming off of an injury. But yeah, that was Dwade at the height of his powers looking better than LeBron and Kobe on the same court.

@@tonycostello8729crazy the closest defender to the shooter is about 15 feet away and 3 US players are open. Croatia got to the gold game with that defense tells you how bad the competition back then. No hate on the dream team, they are monsters don’t get me wrong but damn haha

3 ball was insignificant so loading up the paint and mid range was the best strat.
