    Bird's quote cracks me up.

    The '92 Dream Team's (the ONLY Dream Team) second unit would beat the current team's starters.

    That's an interesting way to look at it

    Laettner and Mullin are the only two guys I could see being replaced on that team. I mean Isiah Thomas didn't even make that team

    Well, the thing is, Bird and Magic were past their primes at that point, so I think you could make a case that LeBron would get a spot, but not Kobe. Not at this point in his career. Five or six years ago? Sure, but not now.

    The other thing is, and maybe some of you old timers could correct me, but all these current stars are used to the bullshit version of the league that exists today. I don't remember the stars of the late 80s/early 90s getting coddled like these guys do. I think prime Pippen would make Durant his bitch.

    Isiah Thomas didn't make the team because a number of players didn't want to play with him.

    It should have been Shaq instead of Laettner, but then who would have carried the bags?

    Shaq was amazingly athletic his rookie year, before injuries and getting fat (and he was still pretty fucking dominant, even as an older fat ass). Even without Shaq, that Dream Team was the most amazing assemblage of basketball talent ever. Imagine adding young Shaq to that roster!

    Whats amazing to think about the Dream team is the fact that Hakeem wasn't on the team (wasn't eligible).

    I thought you knew everything? wtf man. Lettin' me down.

    Thought it was pretty common knowledge, it was Jordan or Thomas. Because Jordan didn't want to play with Thomas.

    Look we can leave it at this and just start anew.

    I deleted my posts.

    I am not looking for trouble.

    Lets just say you said some pretty foul things to me a few years ago.

    Well that being said, I will not take offense to what you said and let it go!

    I am just hear for news, the occasional post, the MMA forum and I do not want any trouble.

    I highly doubt you want that wish to come true.
