Just using the common appellation. Olympics about the only time I watch it tbh.

Was it 88 or 92 the Dream Team came about? The one with Johnson and MJ in it I mean.

Haha even in basketball the Spanish are a bunch of diving prima donnas and crybabies. Unbelievable. Even though it is against France this is pathetic.

France being pathetic as well. Throw them both out.

tbf to this years team, I think at full strength (ie. with Rose, Wade, Bosh and Dwight, plus maybe a Bynum into the squad somewhere, plus maybe you switch in Isaiah for Laettner in the interest of fairness) that they'd give the '92 team a real run. Bird was a cripple and Magic was a loooooong way past his best. MJ with the benefit of a stronger front line may have pulled them through but it would be one hell of a game IMO.

In any case, back to real life. We need some baskets to keep this slim chance alive. We're not playing badly but the US haven't hit 2nd gear yet so we'll see. We need to be within 5 at the half to be in with any sort of shot.
