The Dream Team is finally back! Will it be like taking candy from a baby? We'll see. They made it look fun and awesome with the Chinese team, with the passes, dunks, jumps, slams, etc.

The Chinese are OBSESSED with Kobe Bryant (besides their own Yao Ming of course).

Bring home the gold this year, boys! Otherwise, you don't deserve to earn tens of millions each year for each of you.
They're not the "Dream Team" they're the "Redeem Team". There will never be another "Dream Team".

True there are some very talented players. But the 92 "Dream Team" was purely nothing but Legends. (Bird, Jordan, Robinson, Ewing, Barkley, Magic, Stockton, Malone, Mullin, Drexler, Pippen, and Laettner) Don't get me wrong the current team has some future legends like (Kobe, Lebron, Kidd, Howard) to name a few. But no team will ever come close to the original Dream Team.

In my personal opinion (key word!), the only extremely talented ones on that list are Jordan, Malone, and Drexler. The rest were...eh...either too slow or not too accurate shooters.
