Kobe Bryant went on record a couple of days ago and said that he thinks the 2012 Team USA team could have a chance to beat the 1992 Dream Team. It's garnered a lot of debate and reactions from all across the internet and the media world. However I personally do not have anything against Kobe's statement for a number of reason. First and foremost, Kobe has been the most competitive player in the league for quite some time now and to expect him to say otherwise would be even more surprising. 2nd, he didn't say the current USA team would definitely beat the Dream Team, he just said he thinks they have a chance, which they do. The 1992 Dream Team lost to a bunch of college players which means just like every great team that has ever been assembled, they are beatable. In a series of 10 games, the Dream Team would probably win 7\/10 against the current USA team meaning they are by far the better team but at the same time the current team would be able to get a few wins against them.<\/p>\n

Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and Charles Barkley, all players from the original Dream Team have come out and expressed their opinions about the matter and here's what each of them had to say.<\/p>\n
