USA v NBA Stars 1984
So this highlight reel appeared in my youtube feed. Never seen it, some of you probably have. For you that have not, its a fun watch. Its a warm up game before the 84 olympics for team USA, lead by MJ, against NBA stars.

Good thing the eastern bloc decided to boycott the 84 olympics, otherwise yugoslavia would've won another ring in the US.

Compare the rosters of the '84 USA team with their '88 Team, and get back to me.
The '88 team had nowhere near the talent of the '84 team, and yet still went 7-1. And their only loss was to the Soviet Union by an 82-76 margin. BTW, the Soviets and the Yugos split their two games, but the USSR won the title game by 13 points against them.
BTW, there was a myth that Sabonis outplayed Robinson in '88, too. Didn't happen.
talent alone, with no coaching or chemistry rarely nets you wins. As a wilt fan you should easily understand this.
