Since Kobe and LeBron feel that this team could beat the dream team, does it add pressure for them to dominate?

Not necessarily in their own minds, but in the public's eye it does. If you claim to be able to beat the greatest team of all time, you damn well better dominate to gold.

I think the past 3 exhibition games' performances have added pressure to them. They aren't nearly as good as advertised. The absence of a dominant center is going to be hard to overcome for domination like the 92 team.

Not really since they're still the best team in the world. They would have to play awful not to win.

This is the most ridiculous story of the summer. What are they supposed to say "yea we would definately lose to that team"? This imaginary game can never be played.

The only comments that bug me about this year's basketball team is some of the players wanting to be compensated to represent the US at the Olympics.
