An Oral History of the Dream Team

Featured Replies

I'm intrigued to hear what was so interesting about their relationship. Anyone elaborate?

 

I'm still really bummed they only chose to show this on NBATV.

 

Chuck Daly is the mastermind of the Jordan Rules defense in which the Pistons beat the absolute dog crap out of MJ every chance they could and Joe Dumars would guard MJ when they played. The Bulls and Pistons were bitter adversaries and MJ played a part in Isiah Thomas(Chuck Daly's floor general and best player) not being on the Dream Team even though Isiah deserved to be on the Dream Team. Despite all of that Chuck Daly and MJ were golf partners throughout the Olympics and MJ said that his relationship with Chuck was just as important to him as his relationship with the rest of the Dream Team. Chuck would schedule the team's practices around his and MJ's tee times. :lol:

I guess Daly knew he had to keep MJ happy, probably stroking his ego quite a bit maybe. I don't know. Maybe he was searching for a weakness that he could exploit when they got back to the NBA lol. I knew about the first half of your post, not the second.

Yeah, I hope you get a chance to see it sometime. I watched it one and a half times last night. Truly a great walk back through memory lane.

 

Laettner deserved more tv time though. Poor fella is treated like he isn't a part of the team.

I'm furious this was on NBA TV... I saw the promo and just assumed it would be an ESPN special so I got really hyped to watch it.

You sound just like my roommate and I. So unfortunate.

Direct TV boys, I'm enjoying some US Open coverage that you can't get on cable either. NFL Sunday Ticket. Come on man.

Chuck was awesome. Everything he said was quotable. I remember the Angola game like it was yesterday.

 

MJ is pompous, arrogant, cocky and why he is allowed a pass to act like he does and Kobe isn't?

 

I'll never forget the Dream Team and watching them play and the hype and hysteria that surrounded them. I still think 2012 would beat them.

 

We agree to disagree on that. I'd take Robinson and Ewing over Bosh and Howard down low. '08s only clear advantage was PG and SF, and I like my chances of Pippen causing many a problem for Lebron. Not to mention that '92 would absolutely own the boards.

I thought the relationship that Bird formed with Ewing was cool. I thought the way Magic put it was kinda funny.

It's on youtube, I will try to find the link.

Pretty much exactly what PP is what I found interesting about it. MJ told Daly before he agreed to play he would only play in Thomas wasn't on the team.

It's all good. Chris Palmer said the same thing about 2012 beating the Dream Team on twitter last night and with the replies he got you'd have thought he claimed to be a terrorist or something. The vitriol was high. :lol: Agree to disagree works for me.

Oh believe me... As soon as I have my own place and am not living in a college apartment complex, I will be signing up with Direct TV. Alas, I am still just a lowly college student with no choice in my television provider. 1 more year...

I know it's semantics, but you mean '08, right?
