1992 Dream Team vs. 2008 Redeem Team

[AverageJoesGym]

Point guard (Magic and Stockton) battle goes to the Dream Team.

Perimeter I will call even. (Bryant, James, Wade, Anthony vs. Jordan, Pippen, Drexler)

Post play (Robinson, Ewing, Barkley, Malone) dominating over the Redeem team post players.

Shooters goes to the Dream Team (Jordan, Bird, Mullin)

Bench to the Dream Team.

HOFers 10 for Dream Team, probably 7 for Redeemers.

 

Dream Team by double digits. 15 or higher.

 

Number of Hall of Famers should have NO impact. Remember there is no NBA Hall of Fame only the Naismith Hall of Fame. Christian Laettner has a very good shot of making it based on his college career.

I frimly believe that the Dream Team had a better grasp on the pure fundamentals of team basketball. I was very impressed by the Redeem Team's concept of team basketball, but even they fell into today's NBA style a few times. The Dream Team was better, the Redeem Team should have no shame in being the second best basketball team of all time.

2 main differences b/w 92 &08, 92 could shoot and had a dominant center. 92 by about 10 points IMO

 

Good assesment. I could see that.

There's only a few that think that they'd blow them out. I think either team could win a 1 game scenario but I think the 1992 Team wins a series.

 

That's exactly what I said last week. DT would be favored in a series and for 1 game, but I wouldn't be shocked if RT won either. I'd be more surprised for them to win a series. I think MJ and Bird will out a series win. Nobody on RT has that to that level.

I just think that is an awful way to pick apart a team. They also handled Spain with ease in the first game, but the International game has developed so much and the Spanish team made some adjustments.

 

Do I think the Redeem team is better? No. I simply can't imagine a team "blowing out" them.

 

Not many have said "blow out" but the Dream team would be favored.

Where did I say that they would blow them out? I think that it would be an 8 pt. game.

Dream Team by about 12-15 pts. Ewing, Robinson, and Malone would tear up Bosh, Howard, and Boozer IMO. I think the Redeem Team was a great team, but the Dream Team was the greatest team.

It's just laughable and blind love that you guys think they would blow them out.

 

Mix that in with a little common sense and there you have it.
