    Coach wanted them to see they could lose by not coaching the game. Now Bird said he noticed that coach wasn't playing Jordan. You have to watch Larry bird and magic dropping dimes at 1992 Olympics video. Larry was a menace until the day he retired. Now because of his double Achilles surgery and back surgery to remove a disc in his back he missed a lot of games that last year. When the doctor preformed back surgery on him taking 4 hours he said I don't know how even played at all. But that was Larry . No excuses he just went out and played. I loved it. Love watching your reactions to bird. Been subscribed for a long time now ❤

    There is a story from when he was prez of the Pacers (I think as he was also coach and gm for them). Anyway he was like 50 sonething, wearing a suit, and he came out, didn’t say a word to the players, and hit like 10 threes in a row and just walked off the court, nothing said. He just wanted to show the young guys what’s up. I bet he could do the same today. Different breed.

As far as we know there was no video of this game which makes it even more amazing to hear about, all just from observers who were there.

    In the video special about the Dream Team, they said that Chuck Daly had coached/directed the teams so that the college team would show up the pros. He did it because he had noticed that the pros had been trying to vie with each other, trying show how good they were, rather than playing like a team. By making them lose, it woke them up and changed their attitudes.

  • @elecjack1

    I do not believe they let them win. I believe Chuck Daly set them up for failure. The Dream Team was a team of players who had spent their whole careers being mortal enemies on the court. They all pretty much thought they were the best and honestly didn't know how to play together (only against one another). I believe he wanted to show them that even the best can lose if they don't work as a team.
    That first day, they were either trying to show they were the best or they were trying not to step on each other's toes. There was no in between. The college kids didn't have this problem and took advantage. I think them losing did two things. 1: Showed them that this is serious and even young talent with little experience could beat the best players in the league if they didn't learn to play as one. 2: It left them with a loss that became personal to each of them which gave them a reason to unify and show the college kids what real NBA players look like.
    It gave them the push they needed to focus on the win as a team without Chuck having to do much to get them in line and on the same page. It was a genius move you would expect out of a coach of his caliber and part of the reason he was chosen because he was great at working with players with otherwise conflicting personalities and getting results.

    To the younger generations viewing this video, I mean no disrespect to today's players or your opinions. But from the standpoint of evaluating, recognizing, evaluating, and being truthful in all aspects of the game of basketball, this was the one and only Dream Team. The attitude, effort, chemistry, selflessness, talent, and desire to win at all costs might never be equaled again. And I didn't even mention the confidence, bravado, and trash-talk they overwhelmed their opposition to endure. They were a different breed, understanding teamwork and unselfishness, playing through pain and injuries, and focused only on the goal of winning. No disrespect or criticism to the following generations. I'm just stating the truth.

    It’s like when a dad first teaches their son a sport when he is a kid. The dad lets his son win all the time to keep his confidence up. However the dad starts to play harder and harder making him either earn the win or learn how to take the loss. That was no different. They let them win and let the youngsters walk over them. They wanted to see how they play on the court and also how they act off of the court. Well a few 1 in particular decided to mouth off and disrespect his elder. You know Bird told everyone what he said and they all said “hell no” and put them in a hurt locker for the rest of the week and made it look easy doing it. In 1992 you didn’t get to mouth off the the 2 legends that saved the NBA and the other legends that helped them do it and think you’re going to get away with.

    The dream team beat themselves the first game. They were all superstars and everybody wanted to show why they were picked. They didn’t play as a team and the college team beat them. The coach did not intervene because he wanted them humbled so they would listen to him. He even kept the STAR Jordan sitting on the bench most of the game. Imagine how hard coaching the best players of the NBA on one team. Why would they listen to a coach. Coach Daly let the college players get ahead, then stopped the practice, cleared the scoreboard and let the press into the building. He told the team anybody can be beat and then gave them his plan to follow. It worked but every practice was like a championship game after that. There was not one game in that Olympics where the outcome of the Dream team was in doubt. Coach Daly got the stars to play as a team. He even became golf buddies with Jordan, who had to hate him. Daly designed the defense that drove Jordan crazy when he played the Bad Boys.
