Why do you think the USSR suddenly started dominating the Olympics from 52-88? They even beat team USA's basketball team to win Gold in '88 lol, it all adds up.

Without nba players on the US team

Without nba players on the US team

They were months away from turning pro, Robinson, Manning, Dan, Augmon, Anderson, Reid, etc. stop acting like they were scrubs lmao, most of those guys went on to tear it up just a few months later in the NBA. That USSR team had 1 or 2 NBA players too , not to mention the popularity/talent of basketball internationally at that time, the depth pool is nowhere nearly as strong as it is now.
