Prime Rodman could probably get it done too, nobody gonna shut LBJ down but limit him to under 45%? Sure.
Take away the "no hand check" rules and i believe Prime Scottie would lock LeBron down. Scottie is the best defensive player I've ever seen. Dream is a close 2nd.

I lost interest in the OP after the rapper album references.

No one's locking LeBron down, but I find it hard to believe that an agile bigman like Robinson isn't going to be able to switch on pick and rolls and the like. Maybe not Ewing, since it seemed like he knee problems a lot of his career. The 92 Dream Team crushes the 12 version. If they were healthy and had Howard it might be a good matchup, but no way with the team as it is.
The Worm was a bad dude too. Det '96 Bulls team had three versatile 1st team all defenders on it. Defensively, Scottie was the lynchpin IMHO. Very underrated player.
Kobe looks like a midget next to LeBron in this pic. He looks barely taller than CP3:

LOL why doesn't LeBron stop worrying about beating the Dream Team and think about beating France first. After watching them play Argentina, it's not like France is going to lay down for them.
Spoken like a TP apologist. Well played sir.![]()
Jordan was not infallable. He got swept by the Celtics, lost in the playoffs three years in a row to the Pistons, lost to the Orlando Magic in the playoffs, lost two games in the finals to the Suns, Jazz (twice), Trailblazers and Sonics, and this 2012 team wouldn't win more than one game because he wouldn't let them? Yeah right.

tbh, this team can't hold a candle to that '92 team... winning scoring margin of 40+ points per game... it was brutal...
There rest of the world has gotten much better than they were in '92. The other teams have lots of NBA players now. There's no way the '92 team wins by 40+ a game now.
I know you guys are dying to hear my thoughts on this...be patient I will in due time ..I'm cooking right now...getting ready for the Olympics.
Might not be wearing shoes. CP3 is like 5'11
Damn, what used to be of LeBron's hairline.

lol @ Lebron thinking they could beat a team with Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan, Malone, Robinson, Pippen, Ewing, Drexler, and Stockton on it.
Dunno brah. For the 90s gotta add Add Gang Starr, M.O.P., De La Soul, The Roots, Geto Boys Masta Ace Inc, Mobb Deep, Redman (and Kool Keith still doing work)...Might go with the 1990-1996 if we can't cross over decades.
You're right not 40+
They would beat today's teams by 20+
lol Dream Team had no compe ion in the day. This team is definitely better as the rest of the world got so much better as well.
The game has evolved. Defense is way tougher these days. And Bird was done at that point. A bigger stiff than Dirk at that point. Lebron would tap that ass.
I agree the compe ion is better now, but it was still a 40 min game back then too... 40+ point a game margin is just insane.
A stiff Bird was still >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Kevin Love... let's stop pretending there's no stiffs in this team either...
We didn't have communist super ballers in 1992, sadly. Revenge that will never be fulfilled
Give me credit for stealing my ...I'm the one that first introduced the board to Rodman getting up in Lebron's ass...don't even try to front...
