how about some classic winter olympics in full from 1994 and earlier? far too much USA basketball. The Olympics is meant to a celebration of the world's great athletes, not just one country - and seemingly predominately one sport, who lets not forget are highly paid professionals rather than amateurs

That moment you think John Stockton looks like he's really short, but then you remember that he's actually 6'1"...
You realize sitting on the bench at the start of this game was Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley, Clyde Drexeler, John Stockton, Scottie Pippen and Patrick Ewing? That is one helluva bench
Spain was playing EXCELLENT basketball and still got beat so badly. That puts into perspective how legendary the Dream Team was.

Watching this in 2022, just realized that how much the game has changed, like the strategy, gameplay, tactics, the pace, and many other things
Watching these Dream Team games is a great reminder of what a great player Chris Mullin was. He was big, strong, and quick for his position. He had a great outside shot. He was tenacious on defense, constantly working through and around screens and breaking up plays. Oh yeah, also a strong passer and few TOs.

This is third game I have watched of the USA Dream Team. In each of these games, the officiating was absolutely horrendous!!
1:15:20 is so good. Clyde hits a three, then the U.S. gets a defensive stop that results in Bird throwing a baseball pass to Barkley which turns into an alley-pop to Pippen. Greatest team in the history of sports, period.

They never did! They knew from the grtgo that all they needed to do is use their Superior knowledge of the game, and slowly chip away at all the mistakes and flaws from any opposing team. They always scored 100+ points. That alone is difficult for most teams.
What a beautiful game what a team game that was always the extra pass searching for the man alone to make the shot no force play like the game is supposed to play
Para ese partido yo estaba en primero primaria y de ahí me llegó a gustar el basquetball ✌️😁
My favorite was the allyoop from Chuck to pippen. They disliked eachother in regular games but loved every bit of this.

This is the absolute peak of what the US could produce each of their players could be a contender for top 5 of all time in each of their positions, with some being considered Greatest of all time (MJ, Magic, Bird), with one exception: that being the College boy Christian Laettner. Not sure about recently but the US isn’t sending their current best as the current best are more obsessed with themselves than national pride.
