again

it's not about comparing the talent. i have said like 10 times i concede the talent argument

the advantage is scheme, and gasol fits the modern scheme better. i want his defense and offensive versatility and facilitation

durant/james/curry will handle the scoring load. i don't want a 5 who is looking to shoot or whose value is found in volume shooting

Another flaw in this thread is that people think all of the teams the Dream Team faced were weak. Some of those Olympic teams were stocked with future and current NBA players that were more versed in international play (a topic not brought up in this thread at all.. what format are they playing?). Including the 92 Lithuanian team that featured Sarunas Marciulionis and Arvydas Sabonis. Sabonis would have been better than both Gasol brothers had he been allowed to play in the NBA. Rather he got abused in the Euroleague and was a shell of himself when he finally came over. But he was the reason they US took pros after Sabonis destroyed Robinson in the 88 Olympics..
