Pierce needs to stop with the misinformation about Magic. He played into June of 91 in the finals. He was 2nd in mvp voting and an all star for the 91 season. In November of 1991, he got AIDS. I was alive and witnessed it. He didn't play November 91, December of 91 or January of 92. At the end of January 92, he began practicing on his own because other players did not want to play with him because of the AIDS. In February of 92, he played in the All Star Game and WON THE MVP OF THE ALL STAR GAME. Then in July 92 he went to the Olympics. Pierce makes it out to be that he was washed up and that he played ZERO basketball in a year span which I clearly demonstrated is not true
Don't forget that hand checking was still a thing back then. 92 was better defensively inside and today's team better outside. So it would be interesting. In one game I think it could go either way. In a seven game series I think the 3 point shot would have been paramount. That means today's team is better.
@@jonncockrell3606 I think the opposite. In a one-and-done, ‘24’s 3-pointers could rain down and cause them to win but the all-around consistency, intelligence, size and skill of the Dream Team…I would favor them in a 7-game series.
More misinformation from Pierce on Larry Bird. He said " he couldn't play". In 8 games for the 92 team , Bird averaged 8.4 points per game and averaged 18 minutes played and had 52.1 % shooting. In that 91-92 season, he averaged 20.2 points per game in 45 games. Yes, he had major back issues and wasnt playing like "prime mid-80's Bird", but he still could play, he contributed on the Dream Team, and the narrative that he was completely washed up and couldnt play at ALL is false.
1992 Dream Team Played against a total of 9 International NBA players compared to 60 that that this Team USA will face. The Dream Team played Cobblers, Farmers, Brush Salesmen, Butchers and Blacksmith of course they ran the score up lol , The talent , skill level and speed now is waaaay different now than the Fisherman they played
Who is Curry guarding? Embid couldn't handle either center. He's big but he doesn't like banging. Guys back then were use to banging and they had a ton of post moves. Adobyu or however you spell his name would be matched up with Malone or Barkley. I think the physicality of and toughness of 92 would give 24 fits. I think 24 is more favorites while 92 was about winning only. Jordan was the favorite but his was by far the best on the team.
Brother did u watch the game they were balling plus team USA let up on them thinking they wasn’t that good and them boys went crazy hell they didn’t even have the best lineup against Sudan I still believe Sudan would of smoked 92 team if the shoes were put on them
These type of arguments are dumb. However, the 92 team played more as a team than this 24 team has played. Plus I'm taking Chuck Daly's coaching over Steve Kerr's coaching.

Stockton could play today. Paul is wrong about that. But i do think the 3 point shooting would be the difference unless it was a one game deal. But a 7 game series 92 would have to find 3 point shooting.
South Sudan is better than any country the dream team played by a large margin. There was absolutely no NBA level talent back in 92 outside of America. They were playing high school level teams.

@@stargell6414 exactly. Outside of davis and holiday, the usa could cant guard a statue. If rudy gobert is the best defender in the nba and constantly gets scored upon, where does that leave everyone else. Tatum, Booker, curry, those are lousy defenders. Durant, James is not good now at defending. Maybe 10 years ago.
Jordan doesn’t trump everything. Nobody can guard Durant, Lebron, or curry. Out of shape magic would have a heart attack trying to chase Steph around and Durant would shoot over anyone checking him. Bron would run the show.
Magic was definitely not done in 92’, that was bullsh!t from Paul. Sounds like he sold out to Klutch. Magic was SECOND in MVP voting in 1991. The truth is the 92’ team destroys this current team. Curry wouldn’t even see the court, he can’t guard anyone at his current age. Magic, Jordan, Scottie, Bird, Clyde, Mullin, literally everyone on the perimeter would abuse him. The only real interior defenders are bam and AD, and they’d be physically matched with Ewing and Malone. Against the dream team, foul trouble would cripple the current USA team. Yall literally watched team USA get exposed by South Sudan, and you think a roster full of first ballet hall of famers would struggle versus past prime Bron, Curry and KD? This makes zero sense.
You seem to have trouble listening. Magic didn't even have a basketball SEASON due to HIV... He only played in the AS game and the Olympics, and even in the Olympics, he didn't play every game. Magic was a shell of himself in 92, and he only participated in both events out of respect.
@@EntertainmentGuru101He obviously wasn’t done, that was my point. I listened quite clearly. In a one game scenario, clearly Magic could contribute at an extremely high level. He was one year removed from being all-nba first team. Shell of himself or not, he was still clearly better than Halliburton and would abuse guys like curry, booker, even Jrue on size alone. Dream team could get whatever they wanted.
@@themightyruler1319 Then why didn't Magic play any more basketball after 91' until he came back in 96 or 97 for his last season of which he played like half of it? What you are saying is fictional. Magic in 92 could not hang with today's players. Don't let the score against Sudan fool you. Because if you are going off of that, then MJ wasn't all that either. He averaged 15 points while Barkley averaged 18. MJ is clearly better than Barkley, right? So how did MJ score less while shooting more? We can all fit the perfect image of a player to make our argument but the reality is that MJ wasn't playing like the dominant MJ we knew in the NBA and that's fine. Just don't use MJs dominance in the NBA and put it on the Dream Team because that would add a hypothetical to a hypothetical which makes no sense.
Dream team had 2 weaknesses college guy and Bird. The avengers got a weakness, they have no spine,no backbone,no grit. Depend on which defensive rules they using.
It's what the modern NBA does because 3 points are more than 2 so if some shots are worth 150% of others....it's in your best interest to go after more value from a points standpoint
He said we can counter that with AD embiid and bam lol. AD got bumped in the playoffs by a player who was half a foot shorter and at least 60lbs lighter and he died right there on the court lol. Bum adebayo??? 😂 paul silly as hell
Why they keep forgetting these guys played against 1 nba player the entire Olympic Games and he wasn’t even in the nba at that point(tony kucoch) if this team played that level of comp the 2024 team would do the exact same at the very least. You gotta think if Barkley was dominating then what would LeBron do?
Pierce can babble all he wants about 92 not being able to defend. But any team that allows 100 points to SOUTH SUDAN in 40 minutes and 88 points to Germany in 40 minutes isnt exactly a defensive juggernaut. Other than Davis, who is often injured, Holiday, and maybe Adebayo, who are the defensive stoppers? Booker? that's a joke. Curry? that's a joke. James? Maybe 10 years ago. Durant? nope. Tatum? Not known for defense, and he cant even get into a game at this point. Embiid? He has all to do to run from one end of the court to the other without being out of breath. Edwards? not.
I just think basketball now days is so watered down that they make these players look better than they are. The teams that they played in the olympics had no problems guarding them and dont sit here and say that the international players were as good as the players on the dream team. If players in the Olympics had no problems gaurding them then the players from 92 would especially have no trouble D'ing them up
To be fair the present 2024 USA basketball would have a much unsuccessful harder time playing the physical and mental 90s style basketball against the Original DreamTeam. Factoring in the mental and physical skills adjustableity of the Original DreamTeam playing today's style basketball would demolish any present day opponents by 50 plus points. Also available were Shaquille center, Tim Hardaway Mark Price three points shooters Dennis Rodman defense rebound specialists. Along with a healthy Larry Bird all in their prime. One thing Michael Jordan completely changed his approach and style of play to persificly to win 8 plus NBA championships. So the would have a much easier time adjusting to the new rules and winning. (As for Paul peris great player although it took three MAX CONTRACT SUPER STAR NBA PLAYERS FOR HIM TO WIN ONLY THREE NBA CHAMPIONSHIPS
@@8mathdaddy if you think that Clyde drexler is capable of production at the same level of efficiency it eh opposite direction you’re delusional. Clyde wouldn’t even get enough shots on that team to go back and for the with Durant. He also couldn’t shoot from the outside and wasn’t an elite ball handler by today’s standards. The 2024 team would be able to sag off and help on him on the drive if need be. You can’t sag off of the 2024 team you’ll get killed
all hypotheticals. Jordan's era did not need to play like today's era. Defense was more of the mindset and 3's weren't important. Jordan's era was more about the 2 pointers, dominating a lot in the paint, more physical. Today's era is more about ball movement, 3 pointers, etc. If Jordan's era cared about the 3 etc. and actually made it to were it was a normal thing, then we could speak all this what if

@@guwop93 klown, he played into June of 91 in the finals. He was 2nd in mvp voting and an all star for the 91 season. In November of 1991, he got AIDS. I was alive and witnessed it. He didn't play November 91, December of 91 or January of 92. At the end of January 92, he began practicing on his own because other players did not want to play with him because of the AIDS. In February of 92, he played in the All Star Game and WON THE MVP OF THE ALL STAR GAME. Then in July 92 he went to the Olympics.
Pierce makes it out to be that he was washed up and that he played ZERO basketball in a year span which I clearly demonstrated is not true
@@stargell6414 exactly. Outside of davis and holiday, the usa could cant guard a statue. If rudy gobert is the best defender in the nba and constantly gets scored upon, where does that leave everyone else. Tatum, Booker, curry, those are lousy defenders. Durant, James is not good now at defending. Maybe 10 years ago.
Jordan doesn’t trump everything. Nobody can guard Durant, Lebron, or curry. Out of shape magic would have a heart attack trying to chase Steph around and Durant would shoot over anyone checking him. Bron would run the show.
I'm sorry this year team would destroy the 92 team can't compare margin of victory there was no one in the league from over seas
No indeed 😂😂😂😂 u smoking dope
@@JamesAnglerthe dream team was playing AAU level teams in 92
@@Ace-mw9pm exactly
Dream team would adjust to everything and current team would be lost according to Key😂
Magic was definitely not done in 92’, that was bullsh!t from Paul. Sounds like he sold out to Klutch.
Magic was SECOND in MVP voting in 1991.
The truth is the 92’ team destroys this current team. Curry wouldn’t even see the court, he can’t guard anyone at his current age. Magic, Jordan, Scottie, Bird, Clyde, Mullin, literally everyone on the perimeter would abuse him.
The only real interior defenders are bam and AD, and they’d be physically matched with Ewing and Malone. Against the dream team, foul trouble would cripple the current USA team.
Yall literally watched team USA get exposed by South Sudan, and you think a roster full of first ballet hall of famers would struggle versus past prime Bron, Curry and KD? This makes zero sense.
You seem to have trouble listening. Magic didn't even have a basketball SEASON due to HIV... He only played in the AS game and the Olympics, and even in the Olympics, he didn't play every game. Magic was a shell of himself in 92, and he only participated in both events out of respect.
@@EntertainmentGuru101He obviously wasn’t done, that was my point. I listened quite clearly.
In a one game scenario, clearly Magic could contribute at an extremely high level. He was one year removed from being all-nba first team. Shell of himself or not, he was still clearly better than Halliburton and would abuse guys like curry, booker, even Jrue on size alone. Dream team could get whatever they wanted.
@@themightyruler1319 Then why didn't Magic play any more basketball after 91' until he came back in 96 or 97 for his last season of which he played like half of it? What you are saying is fictional. Magic in 92 could not hang with today's players. Don't let the score against Sudan fool you. Because if you are going off of that, then MJ wasn't all that either. He averaged 15 points while Barkley averaged 18.
MJ is clearly better than Barkley, right? So how did MJ score less while shooting more? We can all fit the perfect image of a player to make our argument but the reality is that MJ wasn't playing like the dominant MJ we knew in the NBA and that's fine. Just don't use MJs dominance in the NBA and put it on the Dream Team because that would add a hypothetical to a hypothetical which makes no sense.
They wanna use 85 magic and bird but 2024 Lebron, Steph, Kd. Use the players where they were at at the time they played for the usa team.
Some of y'all young as crap and it shows😂😂😂😂😂. Lol
Paul you got it wrong, You need to roll one up.
😂😂😂GA GA 😂😂😂
You wrong fam! They couldn’t stop the 3 or shooting plus everybody got moves now
He already has.
I'M WITH PAUL PIERCE ON THIS ONE. THIS TEAM USA IS BETTER THAN 92 EVEN WITH JORDAN. ITS JUST TOO MUCH TALENT.😊
KD Steph dont do good against physical defense
What kd does you trippin
Steph gave prime Kawhi 46 and cooked jrue when he was in the pelicans, he would give magic 67 with all due respect
Karl Malone and magic on KD....Man skip on some Biden ish...he losing his mind
Durant can't guard anybody either.
@@8mathdaddy if someone said put kd on Malone I'd say the same but that wasn't said
Dream team had 2 weaknesses college guy and Bird. The avengers got a weakness, they have no spine,no backbone,no grit. Depend on which defensive rules they using.
Skip and Keyshawn are showing how much they don't know a lick of basketball in this segment.... Skip said Karl Malone would hold KD.... Insane take!
Like it or not Paul is actually right on the money here!!
It's what the modern NBA does because 3 points are more than 2 so if some shots are worth 150% of others....it's in your best interest to go after more value from a points standpoint
He said we can counter that with AD embiid and bam lol. AD got bumped in the playoffs by a player who was half a foot shorter and at least 60lbs lighter and he died right there on the court lol. Bum adebayo??? 😂 paul silly as hell
Bad back Larry lmaoooo 😂😂
This is why this show getting cancelled and everyone getting fired 😂😂
Team USA would blast the Dream team
Why they keep forgetting these guys played against 1 nba player the entire Olympic Games and he wasn’t even in the nba at that point(tony kucoch) if this team played that level of comp the 2024 team would do the exact same at the very least. You gotta think if Barkley was dominating then what would LeBron do?
Pierce can babble all he wants about 92 not being able to defend. But any team that allows 100 points to SOUTH SUDAN in 40 minutes and 88 points to Germany in 40 minutes isnt exactly a defensive juggernaut. Other than Davis, who is often injured, Holiday, and maybe Adebayo, who are the defensive stoppers? Booker? that's a joke. Curry? that's a joke. James? Maybe 10 years ago. Durant? nope. Tatum? Not known for defense, and he cant even get into a game at this point. Embiid? He has all to do to run from one end of the court to the other without being out of breath. Edwards? not.
I just think basketball now days is so watered down that they make these players look better than they are. The teams that they played in the olympics had no problems guarding them and dont sit here and say that the international players were as good as the players on the dream team. If players in the Olympics had no problems gaurding them then the players from 92 would especially have no trouble D'ing them up
To be fair the present 2024 USA basketball would have a much unsuccessful harder time playing the physical and mental 90s style basketball against the Original DreamTeam. Factoring in the mental and physical skills adjustableity of the Original DreamTeam playing today's style basketball would demolish any present day opponents by 50 plus points. Also available were Shaquille center, Tim Hardaway Mark Price three points shooters Dennis Rodman defense rebound specialists. Along with a healthy Larry Bird all in their prime.
One thing Michael Jordan completely changed his approach and style of play to persificly to win 8 plus NBA championships. So the would have a much easier time adjusting to the new rules and winning.
(As for Paul peris great player although it took three MAX CONTRACT SUPER STAR NBA PLAYERS FOR HIM TO WIN ONLY THREE NBA CHAMPIONSHIPS
Paul winning this debate
They paid pierce to be in opposite side this is a show
This years team win 1 game by 20 points and now they the greatest team ever stop it i would love to see how many times embiid would get dunked on
Clyde Drexler would be destroyed by Kevin Durant
Like Durant can guard Clyde.
@@8mathdaddy if you think that Clyde drexler is capable of production at the same level of efficiency it eh opposite direction you’re delusional. Clyde wouldn’t even get enough shots on that team to go back and for the with Durant. He also couldn’t shoot from the outside and wasn’t an elite ball handler by today’s standards. The 2024 team would be able to sag off and help on him on the drive if need be. You can’t sag off of the 2024 team you’ll get killed
Stop on durant dude havent been out 1st round in yrs lol his skinny azz put elbow on hip he done
WHY WE DONT TALK ABOUT WHO HAS BETTER DEFENSE TEAM I.Q. And which rules we playing with I'm asking
This is Olympic rules has nothing to do with NBA rules
Jordan scored 4 pts against Puerto Rico with 1-11 FG and 0-2 3FT in 1992 Olympics. hahaha
lol the avengers team smoking them
Paul sound crazy ass hell
You’re just going off of legend status and not actually stats and play. The lineups can’t be compared this teams lineup is so much better.
You must’ve forgotten about the bench?? Them old folks couldn’t play defense without hand checking
They under rate John Stockton. He was a good defensive player.
@@fresh_printzthe turnover king is the oldest dinosaur to ever play in the Olympics 😂
The 1996 team would give this USA team hell
Bam's gonna guard jordan 😂😂😂 paul pierce been killing me all segment
Clyde on kd lmaoooo foh
KD can't guard Clyde.
Pip
@@8mathdaddy he can hold his own against Bron , melo , Kobe but he can’t guard Clyde ?????
@@Wisestomatoe Durant can guard Kobe, Melo and Bron? 😂
@@8mathdaddy has he not held his own against them ???
Let those teams shots more 3s than 2s..Then the dream will focusing more on 2s,defense,mid range that's all they need to do..
I can’t believe Paul said that bs 🤦🏿♂️ and he is one of my goats but he pushing it fr dream team would kill this team facts
Pointless debate difference in style of play MEANS A LOT. It defines the difference
three-point shots alone would kill the dream team. Not even close
all hypotheticals. Jordan's era did not need to play like today's era. Defense was more of the mindset and 3's weren't important. Jordan's era was more about the 2 pointers, dominating a lot in the paint, more physical. Today's era is more about ball movement, 3 pointers, etc. If Jordan's era cared about the 3 etc. and actually made it to were it was a normal thing, then we could speak all this what if
Who can this year team guard
I'm not listening to undisputed anymore till keyshawn leaves
It crazy...the competition is crazy...now...2024....this team is faster and shoot better....
I saw 3 games wirh this us 🇺🇸 team one player had to get hot to put them over the top ,the dream team none of those nights. No player had heavy responsibility on their shoulders like this new team has. This 🇺🇸 team should be shame of them self that a 39 years player is better than all of em .no body ready for the torch
I respectful disagree Paul , I think 92 dream team had the a different type of feel they had that killer instinct Michael Jordan, Scottie pippen, Karl Malone David Robinson Patrick Ewing. Off the bench 6th Man Charles Barkley (I want to change with David Robinson and Karl Malone) magic Johnson Chris Mullins John Stockton can't forget about Clyde the glide drexler
