People younger than 30 will agree that it's possible

People older than 30 will so hell no

Guards - Russ, Steph, CP3, Klay
Forwards - Kawhi, KD, Lebron, AD, Blake Griffin
Centers - Towns, Cousins, DAJ

If you don't think that team could even "play" with 92 Dream Team, you're too tied up in nostalgia to have a rationale conversation with.

The Dream Team would have been crushed by the 94 team IMO.

I'm sure several could take Christian Latteners spot

There are some tough matchup problems the current team would give 92'. And I'm not sure that works both ways

Westbrook
AD23
Lebron
Kawhi
Durant
Curry

To name a few. Pippen and Jordan can't guard everyone

All those guys from 92 are at least 50. So I'm saying about any combination of NBA players would kick their arse.

according to half this board Golden State would sweep them in a 7 game series.

That depth of the current players would kill the Dream Team IMO.

The 96 team was the worst of the three teams. They had to even call a time out.

C - Robinson and Ewing
PF - Malone and Barkley
SF - Pippen, Bird, Mullen
SG - Jordan and Drexler
PG - Magic, Stockton

That's 11 hall of famers... and only 2 - Bird and Magic, weren't really in their primes, but the rest of them were.

Modern players? Not, mainly due to lack of quality centers.

Players of the last 20 years? definitely. If I could add the likes of McGrady, Hill, Payton, Shaq, they would definitely have their way with the '92 Dream Team.
