92 team would win if they were allowed to use their more physical rules.
12 team wins with pussy new rules.
Is that you chris richards??
In the 90's players were similarly athletic but also taller and legit centers were quite common, that were allowed to play physical defense, so actually it was more difficult to score then. Thats why new rules were introduced to give advantage to perimeter players in order to increase scoring. They cry because they know they'll get a call since the league controls scoring through its refs. This is all common knowledge, I thought, tbh.

Couldn't agree more, this 2012 team would get demolished inside, and jordan would rape them on the perimiter. It would be a joke of a game, tbh.
lol Monkeyball Blake would get destroyed after two games in the '90s... He tries to pull those Pau dunks on Malone and he ends up in the 3rd row seats...
2012 team
Sounds like your problem is with the refs. Yes the league wants to see more scoring now that defense has gotten much better. Did they even play defense in the 80's? It wasn't until the Heat of the late 90's before defense became huge. Teams started to get really physical.Is that you chris richards??

Trying to argue that this team is better than the 92 team is like trying to argue Mother Teresa is a bigger than Kim Kardashian
Yeah, but it's not a mismatch. They're both true centers. Howard wouldn't be physically overwhelmed by Robinson the way Durant would be by Barkley or Malone. Robinson was better, but you wouldn't say Howard couldn't guard him.
1992 team would win easily
But LeBron and Durant would be the best players on the court outside MJ
1 MJ
2 LeBron
3 Durant
4 Barkley
5 Robinson
We can all agree neither would need their A game to beat Spain
but but but... the 40+ average margin of victory

That's for the entire tournament... this team is barely on track after curbstomping Tunisia and Nigeria...but but but... the 40+ average margin of victory

Complete and utter horse . LOL. Lebron is a moron and as arguably the best athlete in the world, he can't even convince an Aussie swimmer to join him for a friendly dinner. LOL.

I'd probably pick the 2012 Team assuming it had a healthy Howard and Wade. Both Magic and Bird were past their primes in 92. This current version that has to field Kevin Love and Tyson Chandler would get destroyed by Ewing/Robinson.
Chandler would neutralize Ewing/Robinson with his defense. The nightmare for US Dream Team is dealing with how fast the 2012 team is.
Right but these teams are better than the groups of unathletic, uncoordinated gots the '92 team was playing
AGAIN: I'm not saying this team is better than the '92 team, I just don't think the 40 point average margin of victory is relevant because this 2012 team would do the same to those teams.

Det margin of victory will go down because the United States has better compe ion nowadays, compared to 1992 when the Dream Team were gods and rock stars rolled into one team.
While 1992 vs 2012 is difference, 2012 would face every team not named the United States in 1992.
They don't beat Croatia by 40... no way to prove it, but that Croatian team was also curbstomping every other team by 20+ (except for Russia)... IMO anyways... Not taking anything away from this team...
They will. Croatia was mostly Toni Kukoc in 1992. Same formula, and we have the people to lock him up.
Petrovic, Dino Radja
And Angola was better than that ty Nigerian team
As lefty said, they also had Petrovic and Radja... not saying they won't beat them, but I think that Croatian team would be more comparable to what, say, Brazil is today...
Angola is quite possibly the tiest team in the history of Olympics and mens basketball. Niigeria at least has 2 NBA talents playing for them. That malnourished Angola team would get murdered by 100 points if they play the 2012 team crofl.
