      ​@@orlandowilliamson691yeah I just heard Bill Simmons say the 2024 team is the best one after 92 and others debating it but hell no. 08 or 12 definitely with all these guys in their prime. I'd probably go with 08 because Wade was still insane and Kobe was lethal and prime Dwight Howard on D was the perfect anchor and a nightmare athletically. Plus J Kidd still young enough one of the greatest floor generals ever just makes any offense chemistry enhanced. Prime super athletic Lebron too obviously but he was apex Bron in 08 and 12. Game the 24 team just had against Serbia wouldve been a blowout if it was the 08 team.

      Don't forget 2012 was this rosters prime. Kobe's in 16th season but still can ball. LeBron, Dwade, Melo? You add KD there. Man! Dwill and CP3 as guards? Tyson Chandler in the 5, plus Harden and Westbrook then Add Iggy, KLove and rookie AD. They're fast and super athletic.
      2024 is more like a fan service. Still can ball but Bron, KD and Steph are like 3 aged Kobes. Tatum and Booker are not on the level of explosiveness as Lebron, wade and melo in 2012.
      I still think USA will sweep the Olympics but I expect close and nearly choking games.

    My country's defense was horrendous, but in all fairness this USA team would destroy any team in history including the dream team.

    This team was perfect. A mixed 3 point shooting and drive to the basket. The Aura is unmatched too with Kobe on the line up.
