is this a joke are these rosters real?

Yes, those were some pretty bad rosters.

The only two good teams were Lithuania and Croatia. The breakup of the Soviet Union hit hard.

Team USA won by 1 against South Sedan.

Over 45 NBA players are playing at the Olympics this year.

How many NBA players played at the '92 Olympics? 15?

This is embarrassing. Only 2 NBA players outside of team USA in 1992. Petrovic & Schrempf. And two future NBA players in Kukoc & Sabonis.

In 2024 it's over 30 if not including Team USA.

On a side note, which is the best non USA team in Olympic history?

I'm guessing it has to be the 2008 Spain team.

Argentina 2004

You are aware that the Soviet Union did not allow their players to play in the US until after it broke apart in 1989 right?

Yeah, that team would beat this US team.

Gasol brothers, Navarro, Fernandez, Rubio, Calderon.

I wasn't aware 1992 took place in 1989.

One of the funniest stories from the 1992 Olympics which demonstrates the level of international competition back then was that while "guarding" Magic an opponent was literally frantically waving at his teammate on the bench who had a camera trying to make certain he got a picture of him and Magic on the court at the same time. In 1992 opposing players from other countries were lining up for autographs like awestruck teenagers. The Dream Team was playing against "fans."
