Of course the media is downgrading the dream team to upgrade this year's team. If the dream team and this year's team played, the dream team smashes them by 25-30 points.
Depends on what rules they went by. If they were calling travels, palming the ball, and offensive fouls like they did in the 90`s, the 1992 team would EASILY win by 50+. Please show me ANY game in the last 10 years in the NBA where players DON`t travel, palming the ball, or commit MULTILPE uncalled offensive fouls. If these 3 things were called now, the current USA team couldn`t beat a pick-up team from the YMCA.
@@RichardRennes That's why I hate today's NBA. They never call travels, players are allowed to flop like crazy, the refs call all these ticky tack fouls. I think the Dream Team would dominate regardless of the rules.
I like how Pippen is the best player ever when they try to say that MJ had more help and that the Bulls was a super team and how he is trash when they try to diminish the Dream Team… 😂
"some of those guys were a bit past their prime" **smash cut**: senior-citizen Lebron taking shots of test and HGH just to get out of bed in the morning
One. Point. Victory. Over South Sudan. And they were down one point with 20 seconds to go. Sudan had two chances to win, as they got an offensive rebound with three seconds, but could not connect. Dreamteam '24 over '92 my ***!!!
Lebro is and always has been absolute shit. Shoots less than 35 percent from outside of three feet. Shoots below three point average according to stats.
I'm not sorry for saying this, but I hope the USA doesn't win the Gold 🥇! So much disrespect on the "Dream Team," who out scored their opponents by at least 40 points!
This year's team doesn't come close to '92. The media has to mismatch in order to make them relevant. Why didn't they compare Lebron to MJ? Because there's no comparison. MJ was playing with other stars and stated that he just 'wanted to be one of the boys'. But, when it was needed, he went ballistic (ask Kukoc). The sad thing is, you can go watch the '92 games if you didn't see them live like I did. If you do go watch them, start with the Tournament of the Americas. The US had to qualify to make the Olympics. First game, in the first 4 minutes or so, Magic makes an errant pass. MJ chases it down from the middle of the floor, jumps out of bounds with a behind the back pass to Bird who drains the shot. For me, it's not just about the skill level that the '92 team had that makes them better. They took great pride in playing for their country and winning gold. You can see the pride and the fire in how they played. BTW, MJ, Chris Mullen, and Patrick Ewing had already won gold in '84.
Imagine that the only way USA basketball (and the NBA) found to get relevance in the media is to trash the past team(s), that's sad and I bet you won't find another sport where you can see that, it just shows how ESPN and so on think of today's average basketball fan. I would understand if they were comparing team USA 2024 to it's 2020 or 2016 even 2012 rosters but they had to go to what people hold to be the highest standard (just like they can't help but talk about MJ) aka 92 roster.
There are some good players this year but that 92 dream team, if you could slide kobe and wilt in there it'd basically be the possible goat list. Noticed he wanted to compare lebron to magic and not mj, couldn't imagine why.
The difference between today's and 92 is defense. Magic Johnson said the same thing about 2008s redeem team " Take away their offense what can they do to beat the dream team".
This team isn't even close to the 1996, 2008, or even the 2012 teams. There's no way this team is even coming close to the '92 Dream Team. Magic led the Lakers to the Finals in '91, literally a summer before the '92 Olympics. LeBron had prime Anthony Davis as his teammate and made the playoffs as a 7th seed. Besides, LeBron is 39 years old. Steph is 36. Durant hasn't even played a game yet as he's rehabilitating, and Kawhi was subbed out for a role player. Most of the mainstream media covering basketball are absolutely terrible.
Slap stick never wright Nick saying magic past his prime? Magic was in the finals the year before. Slap stick nick doesn’t have to be worried about being past his prime, he’s a “ never was” and should have his journalism license revoked!
Fuck it let this team all be the best they ever were and the dream team still wipes them by 15. The 92 dream team played some beautiful basketball together, this team I see a lot of bs 1v1 offense.
Select team with Flagg, Podz, Jaquez should not be in a 1-shot game with Team USA. '92 selects "won" with MJ out, had C-Webb, Penny, Grant Hill, Allan Houston, Mashburn, Hurley. Dream Team WAY better than '24.
The game against the college select team in 92 was rigged. Watch what coach K says about it on the dream team documentary. The next day they killed them.
I mean, WHY is Cowherd bringing "Portland Scottie" into this??? In '92 EARLY Prime Pippen....and I'll say this much : Tatum might be more offensively skilled....but '92 Pippen would HOUND him ALL over the court....he'd make him NOT want the ball.....Tatum also couldn't stop Pippen from bringing the ball up and initiating the offense.
@@twiliteznTatum 7-26 shooting performance and 14 double hesi bricks, I can't believe how easy these media members sell out, they already make great money to be on tv talking about sports, they shouldn't need more to lie.

Same media who says LeBron couldn't have played on the Dream Team, well yeah he would have been 7 at the time, would have been weird seeing a child on the court.
Either this "Avengers" team wins every game by 30 and the Media crowns this team as the greatest or they steal a few victories and/or lose a game and Steve Kerr gets blamed.
They only have one first team all nba player on this team, dream team had all five. This whole argument is an absolute joke. This team doesn’t even have the best player in the world
It's the same way they claim mj never played a team like the warriors and ignore MJ played the only team In history with 5 top 75 players in the 86 Celtics, and he dropped 42 7 7 3 and 1.5 if I remember right, plus the NBA playoffs record 63 points in a single game. It's just ignorance at this point.
If I were going to make a case for ANYTHING in these Olympics it would be that the talent outside the US is much stronger, but that’s about it. The game has only increased in popularity since that first team. Go watch the DOC on the ‘92 Dream Team and they were treated like the Beatles landing at JFK.
Right now Team USA’s teenage men’s team is annihilating their competition. Some of these claims about the world catching up to us are over exaggerated.
Honestly, I don't even know if I can argue that AD is better than '92 Ewing. It's a debate, but Ewing also averaged 24 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, and 3 blocks per game. He finished top five in MVP voting and also made the All-NBA Second Team, but Second Team defense. However, his competition at center was far stiffer than AD's, especially on the defensive side. The Knicks also finished as the fourth seed with 51 wins, while my Lakers won fewer games. Ewing didn't have anyone close to as good as LeBron as a teammate, despite his flaws at 39. Just comparing impact, Ewing was a far more dominant player. AD is more skilled and versatile, but Ewing was simply the better player. Stats can be skewed due to rule differences, officiating, and style of play.
USA VS the basketball powerhouse of South Sudan. 101-100 final score. Closest game for 92' Dream Team 118-85 and it was against the second best team in the Olympics that year.
Robinson vs AD, Ewing vs Embiid, Barkley vs Bam, Stockton vs Curry, Bird vs Tatum, Jordan vs LeBron, this year's team would get stripped, rejected and bamboozled. None of these guys are used to anyone playing Defense like the '92 guys.
Who on 2024 gets to cover K. Malone, C. Dresser, S. Pippen, or the "forgotten one" Chris Mullins? Mullins was a 6'7 forward with superior handles and one of the league's top scorers! He averaged over 40% (top 3 in league 10+ years) 47% fg (career) and 90% or better fts for career! But the Dream Team can't shoot..."pure lies from media"!
@@LoyKnowles Exactly. Clyde The Glide was almost on Jordans level, Pippen can dunk on and defend anybody, Mullin was the best shooter and nobody is stopping The Mailman from delivering any packages when he plays pick'n'roll with Stockton. If these dudes were around today they would have the modern training, doctors etc. and would be even better. People forget the only reason today's guys are so good because they learned from all these legends. If the '92 team played today they all would shoot more 3's and have better handles. MJ in today's league would play PG make 45pts because he always has the ball and nobody is allowed to defend him Bad Boys Pistons style and his 3pt% would be way higher. Agile centers like Robinson would all be shooting 3's etc.
It is amazing how "experts" should not be allowed to speak publicly. The "Dream Team" was the dream team because the world got to watch Larry and Magic play together as they ended their basketball careers. Jordan was in the middle of his first threepeat and dominating the league. More importantly, this was the first time pros were playing in the Olympics!!! The 1992 included guys who would got 100% every minute. That does not describe ANYONE in the current NBA. Now, everyone is worried about protecting themselves so they can play "forever". Back in 1992, players were trying to win championships. Now, players want money.
I don't care how messed up Bird was... He was still dominating fools late in his career. There is a huge difference in being a superior athlete versus being a superior basketball player. 1992 team will always be my favorite.
There is an argument for other teams like the redeem team and 96 imo. I dont see the argument for 24 though. The problem with looking at teams like this, is everyone wants to see the name and the career and imagine them as in their prime but this version of '24 teams greatest names are the worst version of themselves and yes, Bird was just there for a name at that point-though he could play well in his spot minutes. Obviously had he been a few years prior-he'd start at the 3 and there is no comparison. Bird being in that state and forcing the team to select a college player (unless it had been Shaq), really does hurt the 92 dream team when younger generations look back on it. Hell, i wish Hakeem had gotten his citizenship by then rather than imagine if Nique didn't tear his achilles or Zeke played. Stockton and Mully being white will always hurt the team appeal even though the league is being run by white Euros now. People dont realize how good Mully was at that time and he along with Ewing and Jordan won gold in 84 together so the 3 of them being all stars in 92 it only made sense they'd player together again. Its just that Mullin isnt a generational name so they wont respect it like they should at 92 in his peak and perfect fit for that team. Basically Mullin was a taste how unstoppable that team would have been with a healthier Brid, but ultimately Mullin stood on his own.
Pippen defensive is second to none. One of the greatest drivers to the basket. Great passer. He could defend 1 through 4. Ewing was awesome. I got to see him back in the 80's. Dominant!!
Last thing I heard before cutting off the video was “Tatum is better than Pippen” all I needed to hear from the guy show claimed the league didn’t need Lebron because of Ben Simmons…and let me guess at some point he probably states Lebron being better than Jordan in an ultimate stroke of irony!

its crazy cowherd will literally just bold face lie straight into the camera but Magic disrespect is wild a 40 year old lebron over a 31 year old magic should get you fired
Of course the media is downgrading the dream team to upgrade this year's team. If the dream team and this year's team played, the dream team smashes them by 25-30 points.
Depends on what rules they went by. If they were calling travels, palming the ball, and offensive fouls like they did in the 90`s, the 1992 team would EASILY win by 50+. Please show me ANY game in the last 10 years in the NBA where players DON`t travel, palming the ball, or commit MULTILPE uncalled offensive fouls. If these 3 things were called now, the current USA team couldn`t beat a pick-up team from the YMCA.
@@RichardRennes That's why I hate today's NBA. They never call travels, players are allowed to flop like crazy, the refs call all these ticky tack fouls. I think the Dream Team would dominate regardless of the rules.

**smash cut**: senior-citizen Lebron taking shots of test and HGH just to get out of bed in the morning
Today’s “Sports Media” is a constant comparative basketball joke.
One. Point. Victory.
Over South Sudan.
And they were down one point with 20 seconds to go.
Sudan had two chances to win, as they got an offensive rebound with three seconds, but could not connect.
Dreamteam '24 over '92 my ***!!!
Lebro is and always has been absolute shit. Shoots less than 35 percent from outside of three feet. Shoots below three point average according to stats.
I'm not sorry for saying this, but I hope the USA doesn't win the Gold 🥇! So much disrespect on the "Dream Team," who out scored their opponents by at least 40 points!
After Australia and SS, it is a good chance that they don't win gold. I won't be surprised.
The only one who was really out of his prime on the dream team was Larry Bird. Magic only retired from the nba because of HIV.
The LeMedia at it again
This year's team doesn't come close to '92. The media has to mismatch in order to make them relevant. Why didn't they compare Lebron to MJ? Because there's no comparison. MJ was playing with other stars and stated that he just 'wanted to be one of the boys'. But, when it was needed, he went ballistic (ask Kukoc). The sad thing is, you can go watch the '92 games if you didn't see them live like I did. If you do go watch them, start with the Tournament of the Americas. The US had to qualify to make the Olympics. First game, in the first 4 minutes or so, Magic makes an errant pass. MJ chases it down from the middle of the floor, jumps out of bounds with a behind the back pass to Bird who drains the shot. For me, it's not just about the skill level that the '92 team had that makes them better. They took great pride in playing for their country and winning gold. You can see the pride and the fire in how they played. BTW, MJ, Chris Mullen, and Patrick Ewing had already won gold in '84.
Embiid trying to outsmart Jokic is peak comedy
If it wasn’t for the legends the current players wouldn’t have all of these luxuries that they have now.
The Laetnner comment is bizarre considering, iirc, they had to have one college player on the team in 92.
Not only that, but Laetnner's game was tailor made for today's NBA!!!! Put him in the NBA today and he'd be Star Player!!! lol!!!
@@MasterSpade He was a good player.
@@MasterSpadeI agree, in today's softer game he would have did great.

First time champion Jayson Tatum is lunch food to Scottie Pippen respectfully
you're definitely not wrong but why did cowherd bring Tatum into this JT is disrespected enough as is
Facts. Pippen was the total all around player at that time. Try his defense out if you want too.
Uncut hoops why are they tearing down the past?why are they tearing down the NBA?
Why are they??
Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!
Just another one of the Klutch Narratives. The narrative that everything LeBron does is better than everything Jordan did.
No one listens to Colin Cowerd like he's a basketball expert. 😂😂
MORAL Of The STORY:
"Friends DON'T Let Friends TALK Like DRUNKEN FOOLS On NATIONAL TELEVISION!!!!!!!!"
That Is All, Folks.... 👀😬💯✌️
Imagine that the only way USA basketball (and the NBA) found to get relevance in the media is to trash the past team(s), that's sad and I bet you won't find another sport where you can see that, it just shows how ESPN and so on think of today's average basketball fan.
I would understand if they were comparing team USA 2024 to it's 2020 or 2016 even 2012 rosters but they had to go to what people hold to be the highest standard (just like they can't help but talk about MJ) aka 92 roster.
There are some good players this year but that 92 dream team, if you could slide kobe and wilt in there it'd basically be the possible goat list.
Noticed he wanted to compare lebron to magic and not mj, couldn't imagine why.
The difference between today's and 92 is defense. Magic Johnson said the same thing about 2008s redeem team " Take away their offense what can they do to beat the dream team".
They have to do this, boosting current NBA solidifies their job.
Ironic that acting like the dopes we know them to be provides them job security. What a world.
Mann what lets see how long today's nba would play under 90s rules borderline hockey fights on a nba court
Excellent work as always Uncut 👏🏾
This team isn't even close to the 1996, 2008, or even the 2012 teams. There's no way this team is even coming close to the '92 Dream Team.
Magic led the Lakers to the Finals in '91, literally a summer before the '92 Olympics. LeBron had prime Anthony Davis as his teammate and made the playoffs as a 7th seed. Besides, LeBron is 39 years old. Steph is 36. Durant hasn't even played a game yet as he's rehabilitating, and Kawhi was subbed out for a role player. Most of the mainstream media covering basketball are absolutely terrible.
They don’t have Michael Jordan though and that’s the difference
Exactly lol. MJ in 92 was insane nobody on this team would be able to guard him
EXACTLY!! If you pissed Jordan off by saying they couldn’t win the game would be over right then.
Slap stick never wright Nick saying magic past his prime? Magic was in the finals the year before.

Fuck it let this team all be the best they ever were and the dream team still wipes them by 15. The 92 dream team played some beautiful basketball together, this team I see a lot of bs 1v1 offense.
Watched all of the '92 games live as they happened. Stuff like that happens once in a lifetime.

Select team with Flagg, Podz, Jaquez should not be in a 1-shot game with Team USA. '92 selects "won" with MJ out, had C-Webb, Penny, Grant Hill, Allan Houston, Mashburn, Hurley. Dream Team WAY better than '24.

When they almost lost to South Sudan 😂
I was wondering who would bring that up😂 OMG the 2024 looked like trash in that game and Joel Embiid forgot what defense was (amongst others). It’s just a joke, there’s a channel called “Awful Coaching” who breaks it down and shows how terrible they were. It was scary how bad they were, and they almost lost to Germany. They’re nowhere near as dominant, and rely on LeBron to bail them out. I could go on, but anyone with eyes can tell the difference.

9 out of ten all nba first or second team players on the same team. These people are an absolute joke
It's the same way they claim mj never played a team like the warriors and ignore MJ played the only team In history with 5 top 75 players in the 86 Celtics, and he dropped 42 7 7 3 and 1.5 if I remember right, plus the NBA playoffs record 63 points in a single game. It's just ignorance at this point.
I wonder what they're gonna say if they lose.
[except Laettner] gimme ANY 2 from the dream team + Jordan and they would BEAT ANY 3 FROM team usa!
These liars are Compromised. They want access to the players.
If I were going to make a case for ANYTHING in these Olympics it would be that the talent outside the US is much stronger, but that’s about it. The game has only increased in popularity since that first team. Go watch the DOC on the ‘92 Dream Team and they were treated like the Beatles landing at JFK.
Right now Team USA’s teenage men’s team is annihilating their competition. Some of these claims about the world catching up to us are over exaggerated.
I just absolutely LOVE how you and AoH just carve up these ridiculous claims WITH FACTS/STATS/DATA/FOOTAGE...well done!
AD may be better than Ewing in 92 but not admiral. Tatum might be better than pippen but not Clyde or mj.
Honestly, I don't even know if I can argue that AD is better than '92 Ewing. It's a debate, but Ewing also averaged 24 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, and 3 blocks per game. He finished top five in MVP voting and also made the All-NBA Second Team, but Second Team defense. However, his competition at center was far stiffer than AD's, especially on the defensive side. The Knicks also finished as the fourth seed with 51 wins, while my Lakers won fewer games.
Ewing didn't have anyone close to as good as LeBron as a teammate, despite his flaws at 39. Just comparing impact, Ewing was a far more dominant player. AD is more skilled and versatile, but Ewing was simply the better player. Stats can be skewed due to rule differences, officiating, and style of play.
USA VS the basketball powerhouse of South Sudan. 101-100 final score. Closest game for 92' Dream Team 118-85 and it was against the second best team in the Olympics that year.
The blatant Magic Johnson disrespect can stop. He has a very nice resume for the GOAT conversation.
Robinson vs AD, Ewing vs Embiid, Barkley vs Bam, Stockton vs Curry, Bird vs Tatum, Jordan vs LeBron, this year's team would get stripped, rejected and bamboozled. None of these guys are used to anyone playing Defense like the '92 guys.
Who on 2024 gets to cover K. Malone, C. Dresser, S. Pippen, or the "forgotten one" Chris Mullins?
Mullins was a 6'7 forward with superior handles and one of the league's top scorers! He averaged over 40% (top 3 in league 10+ years) 47% fg (career) and 90% or better fts for career!
But the Dream Team can't shoot..."pure lies from media"!
@@LoyKnowles Exactly. Clyde The Glide was almost on Jordans level, Pippen can dunk on and defend anybody, Mullin was the best shooter and nobody is stopping The Mailman from delivering any packages when he plays pick'n'roll with Stockton. If these dudes were around today they would have the modern training, doctors etc. and would be even better. People forget the only reason today's guys are so good because they learned from all these legends. If the '92 team played today they all would shoot more 3's and have better handles. MJ in today's league would play PG make 45pts because he always has the ball and nobody is allowed to defend him Bad Boys Pistons style and his 3pt% would be way higher. Agile centers like Robinson would all be shooting 3's etc.
Nick Wright, Brian Winhorst, and Colin Cowherd. The Moe, Larry, and Curly of modern sports commentary.
It is amazing how "experts" should not be allowed to speak publicly. The "Dream Team" was the dream team because the world got to watch Larry and Magic play together as they ended their basketball careers. Jordan was in the middle of his first threepeat and dominating the league. More importantly, this was the first time pros were playing in the Olympics!!! The 1992 included guys who would got 100% every minute. That does not describe ANYONE in the current NBA. Now, everyone is worried about protecting themselves so they can play "forever". Back in 1992, players were trying to win championships. Now, players want money.
I don't care how messed up Bird was... He was still dominating fools late in his career. There is a huge difference in being a superior athlete versus being a superior basketball player. 1992 team will always be my favorite.
There is an argument for other teams like the redeem team and 96 imo. I dont see the argument for 24 though. The problem with looking at teams like this, is everyone wants to see the name and the career and imagine them as in their prime but this version of '24 teams greatest names are the worst version of themselves and yes, Bird was just there for a name at that point-though he could play well in his spot minutes. Obviously had he been a few years prior-he'd start at the 3 and there is no comparison. Bird being in that state and forcing the team to select a college player (unless it had been Shaq), really does hurt the 92 dream team when younger generations look back on it. Hell, i wish Hakeem had gotten his citizenship by then rather than imagine if Nique didn't tear his achilles or Zeke played.
Stockton and Mully being white will always hurt the team appeal even though the league is being run by white Euros now. People dont realize how good Mully was at that time and he along with Ewing and Jordan won gold in 84 together so the 3 of them being all stars in 92 it only made sense they'd player together again. Its just that Mullin isnt a generational name so they wont respect it like they should at 92 in his peak and perfect fit for that team. Basically Mullin was a taste how unstoppable that team would have been with a healthier Brid, but ultimately Mullin stood on his own.
Pippen defensive is second to none. One of the greatest drivers to the basket. Great passer. He could defend 1 through 4. Ewing was awesome. I got to see him back in the 80's. Dominant!!
Last thing I heard before cutting off the video was “Tatum is better than Pippen” all I needed to hear from the guy show claimed the league didn’t need Lebron because of Ben Simmons…and let me guess at some point he probably states Lebron being better than Jordan in an ultimate stroke of irony!
