Sabonis wasn't the reason the 88 team got beat.
They got beat because the team was flawed with terrible shooters. Hersey Hawkins got hurt your only shooter was Maerjle who was awful. Charles Smith (PG from Georgetown) and Bimbo Coles gave you nothing either.

He was one of the reasons. I just remember reading in Robinson's autobiography how tough Sabonis was and always seemed to get the better of him. Maybe a lot of that comes from how humble Robinson is/was. There is no doubt they were pretty even up though. Given that the whole 88 Olympic team was dependent on Robinson, neutralizing him went along way to beating them.
Point still stands that all the other teams weren't just scrubs though. The Croatian team the Dream team faced in the gold medal game was loaded and featured Drazen Petrovic. He is pretty up there as far as international players to ever play in the NBA and the Dream team still beat them by 30+..
