I wish all young people could see this practice. Its on NBAtv One does not want to be on the team which gets beat by Peru. It is something you would never live down in an NBA locker room. |

Wasn't there some feature in SI about the 1992 Dream Team? About how intense the scrimmages between those guys, particularly Magic and MJ were?

The '92 "Dream Team" played Angola, Lithuania, etc. when Basketball in other countries was no where near what it is today.
Bird retired, never played again because of his back. Magic came out of his AIDS-induced "retirement" to play.
Don't be so sure this year's squad couldn't win.
Possible the Giants, Packers, Patriots, or Steelers of today could beat 'Skins and Cowboys (much less Bills) of that era?
I suspect there's been a few MLB teams that could beat '27 Yankees since then, too.

And the 92 team had Christian Laettner who was still in college. But I think Jordan is enough of a lunatic to give the edge to the 92 team.
