Kinda justified

It can also be argued that North Korea is a workers paradise

1987 team Canada. No team better than that one.

How does Danny Hart sit down with balls that big?

Undefeated? Nope

Untied? Nope

Deluded? Yep

Jeff Gordon in 1998

Pink? Maybe. Maybe not. You decide.

They horsed around for a bit then when it was time to get serious Gretzky and Lemieux took over.

Yeah, but isn't that what they said about the odds of Team USA beating CCCP in 1980?

The Russians were not the dream team

2014 Canadian Olympic team was dominant as well.

Did not lose a game. Gave up only 3 goals in 6 games. Shut out the US in the semis and Sweden in the Gold medal game. That was a good team.

That's about as likely as the Globetrotters losing to the Generals

Take a short break from ST and read my blog:

You think Pippen was weak?

Or are you comparing him to a Larry Bid who was 8 years younger, or a prime LeBron James? Those two were definitely better, but Pippen was probably still better than every other non-USA player in the world at the time.

Pippen, Mullin, and even an injured/old Bird were the three best small forwards on the planet in 1992. Unless we want to count Kukoc as a SF at that time but even then I would've taken an injury free Bird.

Relatively weak. Pippen was their only small forward who could play at that time (bird was washed up), Mullins was good as well but not up to the others.

PG: magic, Stockton,
Off guard: Jordan, Clyde
Sf: pippen, Mullins, bird
Pf: Malone, Barkley,
Center: Ewing, Robinson,

Jordan could slide into the sf. Magic was also pretty washed up at the time, but jordan/clyde could slide into the PG spot if needed.

That's great but name a better non-American SF in 1992 that was better than Pippen, Mullin, or Bird. I just threw out the only other possible name. Maybe the position was "weak" relative to the 1, 2, 4, and 5 positions but if your SFs are still better than every other player in the world it's not "weak."

That is my only point. Dominque was prob better than Mullins but he was hurt.

Regarding the '12 team, if you combine the teams based on time of playing I think the 92 team would have had - jordan, stockton, pippen, malone, barkley, robinson, clyde. the 12 team would have had - paul (beating out a washed up johnson), kobe, james, Anthony (for euro ball), durant.

depth chart:
1. Paul, Stockton.
2. Jordan, Kobe, clyde
3. James, Pippen, Durant,
4. Malone, Barkley, Anthony.
5. Robinson, Ewing.

If you are taking overall careers. You have the dream team, but take off laetener, clyde, and mullins, stockton, and replace them with james, durant, kobe, paul,
