I love Kobe and probably the biggest kobe guy here.. but he shouldve just left the comparison crap alone
Kobe needs to stop putting his foot in his mouth and prepare with his teammates for the Olympics.
Although the Dream Team won the gold medal in '92 by defeating teams in blowout games, you never ever heard Jordan or his teammates act all cocky and arrogant before or during games. They acted like true professionals and focussed at the task at hand. Bottom line is the Dream Team took care of business to win the gold medal.
-really don't see why Kobe has to make these comments to put his team above the Dream Team.
This team USA hasn't even take care of business yet in winning the gold medal at the Olympics. Instead, you have one of their veteran superstars talking smack towards the Dream Team?
This team better bring it in London. It won't be a cakewalk in each game.

I was like "wtf" when I heard Kobe's comment too. Just off the top of my head you don't even need to start comparing the SUPER-Legends like Jordan and you already have the bigs like Mailman and Admiral DEMOLISHING Chandler and Griffin.
dream team vs current team, best way I could put it is it would be MEN playing against BOYS.....
even if you wanna break it down on a matchup level speaking on basketball terms, dream team would have just demolished them down low and that alone would have been enough to win the game....
Tyson Chandler is the only guy you got down low, against Robinson, Ewing, Malone, Barkley....
Experts will jump in and try and mention the fast break and isolation capabilities of the 2012 teams players, and I got my money on the fact that just two defenders off the dream team can shut that whole shit down.... Jordan & Pipp
then you got the much more physical style of play from back then that I don't think the current team would be comfortable with at all, so Scottie Pippen said it best last night at the USA vs DR game when he said they would have beaten this team by 20-25 points, and I fully agree
Blake Griffin tore a ligament in the same knee he keeps reinjuring, will be out for olympics but back for training camp.... he needs a new surgeon, this is the third time he's had an issue now, and he's going back again to the same guy to repair it

I love kobe and all but he's dead wrong. I really wonder how bad the 92 team would kill them
2012 more athletic yes, but that's about it. Also you have Stockton to Malone, and Jordan and Pippen in their primes. Who else on 2012 has that kind of chemistry?
first day of VCB classic tourney went by today at South Arms community center right on the side there those two outdoor courts, if you guys are bored and wanna check out some ball players doin their thang, come out tomorrow, there is food and prizes,, etc....

It's starting to look like the Knicks really might not match for Lin.....Anywho, Kidd crashed his Escalade into a pole this morning and was received a DWI charge....
He BROKE his hand slapping the padded cushion?!... da fuq?!... lol ... well I guess that's just a freak accident ... now Amare on the other hand ...
I remember in Highschool we played in the STM Chancellor Tourny. The home team's SG took a charge but got called for a blocking fall AND 1. He punched the wall so hard he broke his hand, got a T for it too.

I fractured and dislocated my finger when the ball bounced off the gym wall and hit my hand awkwardly as I was reaching towards the ball, probably less force than Kyrie's hand slap but with worse consequences.... so yea freak accidents are freak accidents, the name says it all....
oh and J Kidd crashing his Escalade into a pole, lol reminds me of something, especially considering he's had marital problems as well

^ thanks for sharing ?
so those 4 asian guys were the dunk competition participants?
any dunk vids I'm curious to see what they put up
honestly i hate any outdoor tourneys, it's fun when you in high school, but like when you're close to 30 it's like ehhh...
just wrapped up the VCB classic tournament at south arm today, and for example one reason outdoor tourneys are shit, is fcked up rules.... in the VCB specifically the rules say after you foul the opposing team more than 11 times a game, they automatically get 2 points and 2 free throws AND the ball..... nevermind free throws, never mind common sense.... but like.... wherein teh fucking basketball world have you ever seen anything resembling that kind of rule... ever!
were any of you guys hangin out or playing there over the weekend btw?

G-Spec, I found this NBA 3X video on Youtube of the Slamdunk contest at that tournament. It was 17 year old Sherman Su holding that trophy that Bonner presented to him as the Sprite Slamdunk Champion. Thanks for the reference about that trophy for the SlamDunk winner. -comments are corrected in my last post.
Way to go Sherman! -liked Sherman's dunk where he jumped over Bonner.
