Bird's quote cracks me up. The '92 Dream Team's (the ONLY Dream Team) second unit would beat the current team's starters. BNM
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.
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! BNM
Whats amazing to think about the Dream team is the fact that Hakeem wasn't on the team (wasn't eligible).
They could beat them one game. This team has talent. What this team doesn't have is the size to compete with them in a hypothetical seven game series. If Howard and Bynum weren't wussies. Throw in Duncan, Blake Griffin. Maybe just maybe they could make a series interesting.
I think this is awesome. You want your current guys to have an attitude like this. And you want your old guys to say shit like Larry did lol But you have to admit. They are right. Todays comp is WAY harder than 92 comp. If you disagree with that, you are probably too stupid to argue with anyways.
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.
Ahhhhhhhh shit! Here we go! Who is this? I have only traded fun cracks back and forth on S2....... never anything serious. I would love to know what was said.
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.
