This to me looks like the greatest team ever assembled. The first one, I think is in most people's hearts because of it being the first time that caliber of unit ever got together on one team.
Yeah, agreed. Don't know why would some people still think 1996 team is best dream team. Grant Hill and Hardaway are both really talented players, no doubt about that. Sad, they both got injured so early in their NBA career.
Dont feel bad. They are loved and respected till this day even if they couldnt play to their potential for a long time. They were both out of this world talents.
too many people sleep on grant hill...he's still my favorite player after all these years...hope he gets to hall of fame one day but its gonna be tough :(
You are 100% correct but I must warn you some troll will come on here that is an LBJ fanboy and a fanboy of todays overrated NBA players and say something stupid like "STFU the 2012 team would kill them blah blah blah". If they do that just block their comment. We old schoolers have your back man. Hakeem wouldve been blindfolded and still schooled anyone on that 2012 team.
The 1996 Dream Team may be the best. You replaced Ewing with Shaq and Hakeem. You lose Jordan, Magic and Bird but gain Reggie, Ritchmond and Penny. Scottie, Stockton and Malone may have been arguably better in '96 than '92. Chuck is still Chuck. This team had a good mix of the '92 and '94 USA Team.
I had this team tweaked just a bit in my NBA2k12 dream team Centers: Oneal, Robinson, Olajuwon PF: Malone, Kemp SF: Pippen, Hill SG: Jordan, Drexler PG: Penny, Stockton, Payton
Also, Magic & Bird were clearly past their primes at the time of the '92 Olympics. (I know this is a really late reply, but I think it's a good point in support of your argument.)
you right!!! the '96 team had olajuwon, barkley, robinson, malone and shaq in the paint, the '12 team has only tyson chandler and kevin love.. i believe one cannot even compare those two teams
I seen a video I think it was one of yours and it had malone, Stockton Pippin and Barkley on dream team 2 and they was not It might not have been your video my bad if it wasn't....
However, as could be seen from the final, this Dream Team for all of it's talent still didn't compare to the original... the few players that are missing really do make that much of a difference. Adding Shaq did help though.
So i was watching the old usa team and the new usa team...the older teams seems way more synchronized with each other these guys pass the ball so well they know where there team mates were all the time the new team is faster and have way more energy...old generation vs new I think the new generation can take them anytime
it should have been the 1996 USA dream team vs 2024 US dream team, the 1996 team is scary coz of Shaq no one can match him inside the paint , , the 1996 team is also younger and versatile lineup than 1992: Centers : Shaq , Olajuwon , Robinsons vs Davis, Embid ( my goodness Shaq alone will destroy them ) PF : Malone, Barkley vs Adebayo and who else?? SF : Hill, Pippen vs Lebron, KD ( match ) SG : Hardaway, Miller vs Edwards, Tatum ( match ) PG : Stockton, Payton vs Curry, Holiday ( Match )
Now I understand why Kobe said what he said, I'm not saying the Redeem Team is better, Dream Team had one of the most impressive rosters we've seen in basketball history. I think basketball has come a long way since the Dream Team and many countries have better players now like Argentina, Spain to name a few.
LOL!!! This wasn't even a game!! It looked like after the first quarter the Chinese players just wanted to hit the showers, and who could blame them? It looked like a chance for the US to try out some crazy passes and dunks... poor Chines players, you gotta feel for them a bit here!
@MalikdaBeAst235797 nope... he was naturalized player since he played basketball in america during his college days... note: he didnt play basketball until he was a teenager.
+Underworld Films Ah Ok. That 94 Toronto Games, what event was that? Definitely, it's not an Olympic Game right?! Because, it comes every other-after 4th year
I love this team . Pre-Injury Grant Hill and Penny , young Shaq , the dream , Barkley , etc
Man, i do missed Penny. Probably one of the first explosive PG in NBA. Especially his duet with Shaq.
Barkley, Pippen, Hill, Penny, Shaq, missing them. Thanks for the upload
i thought you're missing EJ Feil who was known for his half inch jump
I wish these guys were still playing !!!
This to me looks like the greatest team ever assembled. The first one, I think is in most people's hearts because of it being the first time that caliber of unit ever got together on one team.
Wow... I remember that.... Grant Hill. One of THE guys until his future as a superstar got screwed by his injury.
Nobody talks about this team but they where stacked. Robinson, Shaq, Hakeem, Malone damn
Yeah, agreed. Don't know why would some people still think 1996 team is best dream team. Grant Hill and Hardaway are both really talented players, no doubt about that. Sad, they both got injured so early in their NBA career.
Stockton-Malone-Pippen 1:08 .. is such a killer lineup
Do you imagine if Pippen played with them in Utah? Jordan will have 0 rings
If pippen played in utah jordan 0 rings
@Sergio santos Cunha maybe 0 rings but at least he had 2 olympics champion title already which is big and way prestigious to be honest.
96 vs 92 is very close but I will pick 96 because the 96 players were all in their prime. :)
Ill say it: this team was better than the 92 team. Hands down
Yup. It was missing MJ and Clyde, but I'd take a combo of Hakeem, Shaq, Reggie, Payton, Penny and Hill all in their primes over them ANY day.
@@MistaWordz Id take Chris Dudley!
Agree 💯
Hardaway, Barkley, Hill. Shaq all played for the Suns at one stage in their careers.
David Robinson ..always making it look easy.
I wish Penny would have had a healthy career...guy was crazy good.
Penny was vicious omg
If Jordan was on this team, I would say with out a doubt Dream Team 3 beats Dream Team.
92 team is the best. they are the only team on which you can skip watching the whole game comfortably knowing they always led by as much as 30 points.
INCREDIBLE US
THE BEST PERFORMACE I'VE EVER SEEN!
i feel bad for Penny hardaway and grant hill. if not the injuries. they could have a way better career.
Dont feel bad. They are loved and respected till this day even if they couldnt play to their potential for a long time. They were both out of this world talents.
it's their unselfish passing that impressed. each gave e other a chance to shine
too many people sleep on grant hill...he's still my favorite player after all these years...hope he gets to hall of fame one day but its gonna be tough :(
You are 100% correct but I must warn you some troll will come on here that is an LBJ fanboy and a fanboy of todays overrated NBA players and say something stupid like "STFU the 2012 team would kill them blah blah blah". If they do that just block their comment. We old schoolers have your back man. Hakeem wouldve been blindfolded and still schooled anyone on that 2012 team.
All you need to watch is Hakeem working out with Dwight Howard :) !! It looks as if some fan won a workout session with the great Hakeem :)
What do they say at 05:44 about the 92 team? Unfortunately there is a cut.
LOL 4:20 Charles says " Hit me one more time, one more f---king time "
LOL That's Chuck Being Chuck As Per Usual
LOL That's Chuck Being Chuck As Per Usual
missing Penny, Grant Hill, Pippen, Sir Charles play
the dream team III was amazing... then again the chinese team back in the day was much better than it is now
The 1996 Dream Team may be the best. You replaced Ewing with Shaq and Hakeem. You lose Jordan, Magic and Bird but gain Reggie, Ritchmond and Penny. Scottie, Stockton and Malone may have been arguably better in '96 than '92. Chuck is still Chuck.
This team had a good mix of the '92 and '94 USA Team.
agree with u, this dream team should be the best one. Grant hill is in his prime, too. It will be better if they have webber too
I had this team tweaked just a bit in my NBA2k12 dream team
Centers: Oneal, Robinson, Olajuwon
PF: Malone, Kemp
SF: Pippen, Hill
SG: Jordan, Drexler
PG: Penny, Stockton, Payton
Also, Magic & Bird were clearly past their primes at the time of the '92 Olympics. (I know this is a really late reply, but I think it's a good point in support of your argument.)
Ellande Campbell
True.
chuck was a fat kid who could play like the wind
The best basketball team ever assembeld.
Barkley Hill Hardaway Robinson Pippen Richomnd Miller Malone Stockton O'neal Olajuwon Payton! Dream Team III
you right!!! the '96 team had olajuwon, barkley, robinson, malone and shaq in the paint, the '12 team has only tyson chandler and kevin love.. i believe one cannot even compare those two teams
This is called "Making America Great".
That team was bonkers!!!
Anfernee Hardaway was a beast!
Why they played in Phoenix?? Not Atlanta??
4:25 what is Barkley saying ? Looks like he was taunting
I found a Malone mention of the Hawaii tar seal to be electronic. I know, right.
Was the dunk at 3:00 even going to go in without Barkley stuffing his face?!
(Full of weightwatchers)
wasnt the 1996 olympics in atlanta? why are they playin in phoenix?
furthermore, he's not "chinese", he's from Taiwan by ancestry, so there's no way he'd play for china. And yes, he's American.
Why shawn kemp did not invlude??
Wow making a lot of dunks.Team USA Awesome
Did that commentator at the end say 119-58? FIFTY EIGHT? Other than that, this was before I was born so yeah, It was interesting.
who remembers this from 96
Me my homie!
do you have the full game?
u gotta love penny and hill in their prime
why are they playing in phoenix?
What a block by Barkley!!!
first dream team was 92. how is this III? and they were hardly a Dream Team. 08 and 12 were II and III respectively.
Shaq and Jordan on the same team would've been awesome !!
I Forgot That Michael Jordan Wasn't IN The The Dream Team Game He Was Just Was Retired But Filming SpaceJam At The Time Too I think
I seen a video I think it was one of yours and it had malone, Stockton Pippin and Barkley on dream team 2 and they was not It might not have been your video my bad if it wasn't....
how was hakeem on the usa team?
Is that Whang ZhiZhi at 0:26???
3:08 Hill to Penny back to Hill, sick.
This is epic footage
could this 1996 team have any chance of beating the 1992 team?
I think the '96 team would've beaten them.
Strong Moves!!!
I thought the 96 team was Dream Team II?
1994 FIBA world championship had dream team ii
brillopad6901 Dream Team ll was representing for U.S.A. in 1994 FIBA World Championship.
what game is this???
However, as could be seen from the final, this Dream Team for all of it's talent still didn't compare to the original... the few players that are missing really do make that much of a difference. Adding Shaq did help though.
good memories!!!!
Damn Hakeem Olajuwon should've been on the original Dream Team, too bad his green card was naturalized in 93
I wish Barkley didn't block that dunk attempt at 3:00. I wonder what would happen? lol
phoenix suns, i thought 1996 olympics was in atlanta?
the olympics come every 4 years tho?
Young Shaq is a beast
if the dream team was 1992, and dream team 3 was 1996, who was the dream team 2?
"Hit me one mo' time...Hit me one mo' mutha fuckin time" @4:22
So i was watching the old usa team and the new usa team...the older teams seems way more synchronized with each other these guys pass the ball so well they know where there team mates were all the time the new team is faster and have way more energy...old generation vs new I think the new generation can take them anytime
This was dream team 2. 1992 was dream team 1 and the olympics are every 4 years.
Shaq! It's just not fair! He's like a lethal weapon.
it should have been the 1996 USA dream team vs 2024 US dream team, the 1996 team is scary coz of Shaq no one can match him inside the paint , , the 1996 team is also younger and versatile lineup than 1992:
Centers : Shaq , Olajuwon , Robinsons vs Davis, Embid ( my goodness Shaq alone will destroy them )
PF : Malone, Barkley vs Adebayo and who else??
SF : Hill, Pippen vs Lebron, KD ( match )
SG : Hardaway, Miller vs Edwards, Tatum ( match )
PG : Stockton, Payton vs Curry, Holiday ( Match )
@puffykilled2pac huh? The only players on II and III were Reggie Miller and Shaq.
John Stockton was a baller
Now I understand why Kobe said what he said, I'm not saying the Redeem Team is better, Dream Team had one of the most impressive rosters we've seen in basketball history. I think basketball has come a long way since the Dream Team and many countries have better players now like Argentina, Spain to name a few.
why I did not see China scores even one...
Wenbo Wang because you didn't watch the video
LOL!!! This wasn't even a game!! It looked like after the first quarter the Chinese players just wanted to hit the showers, and who could blame them? It looked like a chance for the US to try out some crazy passes and dunks... poor Chines players, you gotta feel for them a bit here!
Shaq was a beast!
@gorush171 but the US doesnt have 1.3 billion ppl to choose from.
wouldnt this be dream team 2
@tharock220 yes. hes only 19 at that time.
5:06 passes to Olajuwon from Scottie Pippen.......or that is O'Neal
why is hakeem playing for usa?
If the '96 Olympics were in Atlanta, why are they playing in Pheonix???
more like team africa
Even if it were all white guys they still would have won.
i love it how they don't even bother to go in front of shaq
If this is in 1996 then it's the Dream Team II not III.
72 %?
Simple to me...which USA TEAM was the best!?!?
USA-USA! "Gentlemen, you are our best! Make US proud!"
maybe jeremy lin was in the stands?
@MalikdaBeAst235797 nope... he was naturalized player since he played basketball in america during his college days...
note: he didnt play basketball until he was a teenager.
119 to 58?
lol, this is the suns' arena?? they could've at least refloored the thing
U crazy!!! The 92, 94, & 96 team would wax them off the floor!!!!
@IRVINGTONTS Grant Hill was a beast! poor guy, he had all the skills to fight to be a top 5 all time, but destiny did not want it.
@freddiemacktv the score was 119 to 58
@pwrbytrd Grant hill came in 93 along with jason kidd
Dream Team III or rather Dream Team II?
+Echoes of Mars MoonDragon Dream Team III......Dream Team II was the 94 games in Toronto!!!
+Underworld Films
Ah Ok. That 94 Toronto Games, what event was that? Definitely, it's not an Olympic Game right?! Because, it comes every other-after 4th year
1994 was the winter olympics, basketball wasn't played there. I believe it was for the FIBA World Championship.
"Hit me one more time, hit me one more fucking time."
@3:00 even CB not in the paint
theres no fucking way that ball will reach the rim😂
