      @MUFC what’s ur point? that’s not because it’s the best it’s because it’s the easiest to get into. In poor countries anyone can get a back and kick it but not everyone has a hoop to shoot on or shoulder pads for football. Soccer is simply the only sport possible to play in a lot of poor countries. That being said, there’s no way to constitute what sport is the “best” in the end it’s a matter of oppinion. So any argument about it is inherently misguided

    The Dream Team wasn't just an NBA All-Star team, it was all the best players from the toughest era of the NBA playing perfect TEAM basketball. The way they moved the ball around was INSANE and they also dominated in the unglamorous parts of the game like defense and rebounds. You never saw that level of teamwork in US Olympic basketball ever again, they all got along and had fun off the court too, it was just perfect chemistry. Chuck Daly doesn't get enough credit for how he coached up what could have been 12 stars with huge egos going in 12 different directions into a well oiled machine.

    • @TKDBoy1889
      @TKDBoy1889 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      Without question. The teamwork and chemistry was top-notch, and that's even before considering their immense talent. No one was trying to hog the ball and be the star, the rebounds and assists were just as impressive as the scoring. If this team had created a their own franchise in the NBA, they would have been unstoppable.

      Yes..but Yugoslavia in fact had a much better team than the USSR a year or two before these Olympics....and it was also collapsing. :)) I'm not saying they could ever beat The Dream Team, but maybe it would be a much better game maybe. Croatia which was half of ex-Yu team, fell apart the second half, they just couldn't follow a bit anymore because of not so deep roster of top players like in whole yugoslavian team from 90-91 (World and European champions). Nevertheless for me as a Croatian this finals was of greatest honour and a biggest thing then, I started to really watch and follow nba from that point, at age of tvelwe :))
