The same people saying that bobby knight made the right decision due to the fact that the 84 team won in dominant fashion, are the same ones that’ll complain that isiah thomas wasn’t on the dream team. Barkley should’ve been on that 84 team, period!

I saw Mark Price in the picture as well.

Knight’s ego got in the way of the selection process.

The biggest reason is what the argentine said basketball is a team sport.

The 1984 and the 1960 USA Olympic teams were the most talented. But for me, the most talented USA Olympic team was supposed to be the 1968 team. Because of the civic rights movement, the backlash of the Vietnam War and preparing for the NBA draft, many of college top stars either boycotted or bypassed the tryouts. Noted absentees were: Lew Alcindor (Kareem Abdul-Jabbar), Pete Maravich, Elvin Hayes, Wes Unseld, Calvin Murphy, Bob Lanier just to name a few.

That’s the one that the Russians boycott it

And I’m old enough to remember that Olympics that wasn’t the best Olympics competitive wise

Hell no Steve Alford should’ve been left off

I'll never search another video about this topic because reason #1 is THE BIGGEST REASON it's ALWAYS been the biggest reason and people don't like to say it

Reason number 1-5: Manu They didn't just lose, they got beat.

I’ll put one more reason. Better Defense. If you watch USA vs Argentina it was difficult to defend Argentina (it even reached 16 pt lead). Arguably this shares space with #3 team chemistry (more time better defensive chemistry).

My

Steve Alford shouldnt been there

Owners soposalby draft players to win championships star players have to decide if their careers is about individual stats,money or winning championships. Some players its only about entertainment and money there whole career.

No Shaq, Kobe, Tmac, Kidd, KG, Webber, J'Oneil, Allen, Bibby, Pierce, Carter

It’s amazing how easily they won in 1984 with the guys they picked with the main reason being Jordan of course and Patrick Ewing, but imagine if they had Barkley , Stockton , and Karl Malone like they had on the Dream Team , it would’ve been close to what the Dream Team did . I know all those guys were young , but they were very good even at that time .

Duncan kept fouling out, not enough shooters, wrong coach, didn’t play the youngins, bad rotations

NBA IN TROUBLE NOW DAMN DAME !

DAMN USA YOU DONT EVEN GET THE 2 3 PLACE BECAUSE YOUR DISQUALIFIED. DAMN GUYS . WTH ?

Damn Olympics by rules is suppose to take away the gold medals back and hand them respectfully to France . End of story for the mens . Sorry snoop , your just not that good at banging anymore playa.

Hakeem also

Damn dame joel aint no yao honorable?

The competition is so much better. The other countries are greatly improved. They may all be NBA players, simply because they can't all play in the league,but they are all capable of playing in the NBA. America has to take the basketball program seriously if they want to stay at that 1 spot.

LARRY BROWN IS A HORRIBLE COACH . HIM ALONE

Argentina papa

These guys are not hungry for gold medals. It’s really a competition for them to lose. There isn’t much to gain since they’re expected to win gold. Anything less is a failure. I suppose that is why it’s easy to say no. The format of the Olympics kind of helps less skilled teams that might get lucky. For example, you play best of 7 for the NBA championship. Imagine if Argentina had to beat USA 4 times out of 7.

The better collection of talent on a 12 man roster in 1988 was 12 great individuals. They didn’t win gold Knight had a team……they worked together and won No question Knight made the right calls at the time.

Stockton, Barkley and Malone got on the dream team in 1992…..lol

Many players dropped out the US men’s basketball team due to safety issue before the 2004 Olympics was the biggest reason for their loss

Lebron has to lose first before he becomes chamion😂😂😂😂😂😂

No shooters or role players. Lack of chemistry. Not recognizing and respecting the fact that the rest of the world had gotten much better.

Um Yea

argentin beats USA because of Manu

This was an outright snub of Barkley by Knight but even worse was the greatest scorer and ballhandler in college history, Pete Maravich cut in 1968 by Hank Iba, an anachronistic slowball proponent who didn't like flashy players and also snubbex Rick Mount and Calvin Murphy. Then there was Havlicek cut in 1960 when the rules said players on sponsored teams and military had guaranteed spots ...

Thanks

Might as well call that team a rookie team cuz melo, bron and wade just got their feet wet. Also the redemption team 2008 documentary showed these young ones didn’t know how to win yet, they didn’t even have the right work ethics until Kobe signed on to show them how to be pros. So 2004 team had no chance at all

2028 team guard: Bronny James Power fwd: EJ JOHNSON 😂

9 player's cop out

Lechoke

Shooting and Chemistry

I think Chicago bulls is the strongest team ever in basketball , why? Coz they won 6 championship in their era facing all NBA teams with no none NBA player, while in Olympic is consisted of NBA and not NBA player, this means NBA is more highly competitive basketball than the Olympic, no team in NBA now a days can imitate the 6 ring of Chicago bulls in own era and while the modern dream team is struggling in Olympic which are not all NBA players

2004 Team had no Shaq , Kidd, Kobe , Webber , and Bibby , and Phil Jackson should been the coach.

shaq is not yet in 1992 dream team hello.. Make your Research..

That was the reason. So much was going on at the time. Nba also trying to find the next who, coach, franchise and player A lot was going on but clearly they gained control back Tbh tho i don't see america winning gold in 2028 Gonna miss Bron and Steph big time

Nobody knew how to take over and LeBron was a baby during this time. All the vets fault here

You see it now. 1973 America sent women to the compte for entry into the World University Games. America placed 🥈 behind USSR. 1972 Münich 🪙 men are bring up that again over Palestine and Israel, Adidas and Bella. Argentina 🇦🇷 1818 for the Battle to save Santiago, San Martin.

Biggest in my opinion were the refs, getting Tim Duncan in foul trouble almost every game!

That 1992 team was definitely 1 for the ages...

It's plain & simple (Larry brown) didn't make these players feel comfortable. Which led to that lost. Because the 1992 team (Chuck daily allowed the players to play their game at the very best 👌 and ended up blowing each team.....

Man said shooters like Tracy mcgrady & baron davis 😂😂😂
