Final standing of the US Basketball Team, 8-0. So, yea — they took home the gold. Hahahaha. I can only imagine how their opponents may have felt when they were playing them. Stunned and star-struck. Great times. :D
funny how it never dawned on me that this blog was the olympics (and other world sporting event) blog… what a shame since we belong to the same channel haha
Ah the 1992 dream team. It’s was the best ever dream team sent. It was really a great team! It’s in the hall of fame if I’m not mistaken.
The 1992 olympics was the first time professionals were allowed to participate so guess what, the US team formed a team of NBA stars and took the Olympics by storm.
