1992 USA Dream Team vs. 2012 USA Men's Bball Team - Page 64 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

2012s have created a position that even if they lose, it will be only because the players now are so much better, and they still would have beaten the DT.....lol.

Yeah, cause USA is just running an awesome offense that gets them awesome shots...oh wait, they have taken a ton of unnecessarily tough shots bc they have more talent than their competition

Also, that 56% includes an outlier 8/10 game, which is even more argument against him being 56% in the long run

This whole argument is weird bc I don't think you guys even truly believe he is 56%

Uh, no, it's completely logical.

And if you're going to call something moronic, you might want to know how to actually spell the word.

The USA is up 1 at halftime. Playing zero defense, with the refs in their pocket, and living on jumpers.
Coach K better hope the 3's keep falling, or they get beat.

Completely logical?

Only in your mind genius, only in your mind.

BTW..not sure what school you went to, (if you went at all), but spelling was clearly not your best subject.

Just watching what Spain is doing right now, we can confidently say that DT would have the same game plan, but would have executed a lot better. 12 team would have no chance.

Allowing the Pau Gasols to score 100 points in a game against you instantly destroys any claim you may have at being better than the '92 Dream Team.

event: usa wins gold against teams with actual pro basketball players
analysis: proof that they would lose

discussion: the usa will shoot lights out with the short 3
event: they do
analysis: usa is running hot from 3

Last 15 posts or so sure seem to support that its the anti-2012 group that have developed this unassailable position...

Wow, they beat actual pro players? That is so awesome. They must be good. No, they must be really really good. No wait, they must be the GREATEST TEAM EVER ASSEMBLED!

This thread just keeps on amusing.
