re: A current all-NBA team would wreck the dream team

I have no what is going on in this thread in the last 25 pages or so, but this is kind of crazy to be still be going on.

From what I gathered:

PrimeTimeMoney needs a shovel taller than DeAndre Jordan to dig himself out of the hole he made.

People are using prime players for the current all-NBA team and that is not the case for the Dream Team.

OP included fricking Giannis in his all-NBA team.

People have used Marc Gasol for the current team while the Dream Team is American. Can 1992 get Hakeem then?

Magic Johnson was argued against as a weakness and way past his prime despite dominating the NBA just a couple months ago.

People are forgetting about Isiah Thomas because Jordan did not want him on the team.

The scrimmage against the college players that Chuck Daly intentionally tried to tank is used against the Dream Team. Does no one remember the rematch the next day where the college guys put up 0?

There is a semi-popular concept that modern athletes are so much better. They are maybe marginally better. There is just no way everything can change in like 20 years. It is biologically impossible.

Most importantly to me, people have accepted the false statement that high schoolers are faster than Carl Lewis. No high school or collegiate athlete has ever run 9.86 in the 100. In fact, that was not even his best event.
