Kobe has looked very bad for most of the time he has played in these olympics.
He played ok in the second half against australia and he played good in the nigeria game (when everyone played good). Otherwise, he has been crap and looks old.
 
The 12 team would be much better if they had everyone. Like Dwight. He could help a lot with defending the likes of Karl malone

If Howard, Rose, Wade, Bynum, Griffin were all there, then they would make it a good game.

Honestly I see Bynum lasting about 5minutes if that. The 92 bigs of Ewing, Malone, Barkley and Robinson would be all over him and be physical as hell with him. Bynum would get pissed and get himself ejected. Bynum does not have the mental toughness to play with the 92 guys.

Can you imagine Jordan's reaction if Bynum was on his team and got suspended for a set of playoff games. Bynum would need witness protection.
 
I went with '92 for being the best well rounded team. That said, I think the '96 team could have used its inside dominance to take a game or two from the '92 team in a series.
 
I think dominance may be a slighty strong term. If any centers had a chance of slowing down Shaq (no one would stop him) it would be all time greats like Ewing and Robinson.

I think 1996 could win a few games maybe 3 out of 10.

2012 would win 1 out of 10 if they got lucky.
 
Lol at the idea of so many players playing against themselves. How do you call a foul when Jordan is guarding Jordan? Is such a thing even possible? Seems more mind blowing than the Time Machine that got them there.

Because everything has to be based in pure reality. Use your imagination man, damn.
 
I was envisioning two bloody MJs entreating some overly sweaty ref whose googly eyes shift from one GOAT to the other in fear.
