OK, I'm all for thinking highly of yourselves, but let's be honest.... The Dream Team would destroy them. We are talking about the greatest collection of basketball players of all time. This is a no contest people. Magic, Michael, Larry, Charles, and Ewing vs. Kobe, Lebron, Durant, Paul and Chandler. Are you kidding me? The 2012 would make a good showing for the first couple of minutes due to their athleticism, but then Michael would say, enough, and Magic and Larry would pull some amazing passes and shots out their butts and the next thing you know, the Dream Team is up fifteen halfway through the first quarter.
The Dream Team were the best basketball players in the world and they still are considered to be just that. This group, yes, they have talent, and yes they are very good, but please, let's be honest and think about things. The Dream Team didn't just win the gold at Barcelona, they dominated. They won by and average of 40 points a game. That's just sad. They switched up their starting lineups game by game and each five were just as good as the one that started the game before. Kobe guarding MJ? That would last about five minutes before Coach K told him that he wasn't good enough and that guarding Michael was only making Michael embarrass them more. Lebron wouldn't know how to guard Magic. Lebron would be too confused by all the skills such as passing and playing defense, he would think he's still in high school. Larry Bird vs Kevin Durant would be fun to watch, but Larry is Larry Bird for a reason and the young star would find out he's not ready for the big leagues vs Larry Legend.
For all their brashness and egotistical ways, the 2012 team would put up a fight for a while, but ultimately, come to fine what every team in 1992 came to find out when they played against them, the Dream Team is just too good.
Until Next Time:
