that team won 5 pool games by an average of almost 50, beat germany and croatia by 40 plus in the medal games and spain by 30 plus for the gold. 8 games by 360 points. stockton and mullin were in their prime too

somebody somewhere will give this 2012 team a good game

nobody anywhere could have matched up to 1992

When I look back at the Kobe quote, though, he said that they (2012ers) could beat the Dream Team.

That's a little different than saying they were better than them. Any USA player today would say their team could win a game against the Dream Team. It's not as big of a statement as I thought.

That crazy German killed that first name forever...the same way there will be no more "Dicks" after another 20 years or so.

My dads name was Richard. I always called him Dick when we didn't agree.

Depends on which refs are around for the game. Will it be the cheating refs of MJ's era or the cheating refs of Kobe's era? Also, since MJ's time has come and gone, David Stern may have to remove his lips from Jordan's asshole and put them on someone else very soon. I give the slight advantage to 2012 team.

Dag, BigRed, you're still pissed about Jordan blackballing Zeke from the Dream Team, huh?

Hell, even I like Dan Dakich as a color commentator now. Let it go, brother...

Swain County, huh? Good to see you kept with the hilljacks, ecat.

heh...

Actually, the mountains of NC was about the only part of the state that wasn't hotter than the surface of Mercury. Where did you hit up in NC, e?

Fuck the mountains. I say that we give everything west of I-26 to Tennessee. It will raise the average IQ of both states.

I went to Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest. US 129 runs thru Swain County which is part of the Deals Gap/Dragon Tail ride. Beautiful country up there.

129 is also the road where Thunder Road with Robert Mitchum was filmed.

Nope could care less. Jordan is a cocksucker and should burn in hell.
