One last point about Team USA...


Proof that the 2008 Team USA doesn't really know what its like to win, at least not on the same level as the 1992 Dream Team. Amongst the whole lot, the 2008 Team USA has 5 NBA Championship Rings (three are Kobe's), 10 NBA Finals appearances (half of those are Kobe), and two NCAA Basketball Championship Rings. Contrast that to the 1992 Dream Team (as of the 1992 Barcelona Games) which had 14 NBA Championship Rings, 2 NBA Finals appearances, and five NCAA Basketball Championship Rings. By the end of their collective careers, the original Dream Team would amass 23 rings and 40 finals appearances in total. I know these kids are young...but gosh look at those numbers. The '92 team KNEW how to win...and they kept on winning long after taking home the Gold!
