Its all good bro, I just didnt see the Dream team as being all that physical, yeah they were shooters, and could pass the ball great but other than that... I dont know. The games changed since then, athletes nowadays are stronger, faster, and more physical then they were back during that time.

You must have not watch late 80's early 90's NBA. The way they played defense was tough it was like watching wwe, no such thing as touch fouls like what they call today. There is a reason why this this lil scoring point guards are having success today it's because the no hand check rule and touch fouls favor quick guards. If they would try to drive in back then they would get clotheslined and elbow in the face and no fouls will be called. IF you watch MJ drive back then he drives in full force and no flopping, because if he tries to pull off a Euro step he would get pummeled and refs back then don't call on flops, so you really have to commit to your drive. Now if you sneeze on lebron it's going to be called a flagrant foul.


The dream team had some of the best big mans to ever play the game. There is no way Kevin love and chandler can guard Barkley, Malone, Robinson and Ewing. Lebron won't be able to drive in that lane. 2012 dream team had a hard time against the soft Pau Gasol and Marc Gasol.

The link below will show how tough defense was played back then.
