      'Eligible' being the key word there. I'll never understand people who go to the Olympics representing another country, especially in a team sport where their chances of winning gold are greatly elevated by the defection. I'm not talking about refugees or rejected athletes here, I'm talking about a country like Cameroon, who would dearly love to have Embiid on the floor for them, but seems he's not interested in his heritage, his compatriots or the challenge of taking on the other nations. Just interested in the gold.

    What most people won’t admit: the Dream Team was as much about the lack of world competition as much as the greatness of Team USA. The world caught up to USA in basketball competition in the mid 00s, so a dominant showing from this Olympic squad could very well top the Dream Team’s run.

      They were playing the equivalent to YMCA players from other countries.

So imagine the other countries trying to scrape together a team let alone players with actual talent when basketball wasn’t nearly as popular as it is now.

    The Dream Team didn't play against great international competition back then. The game was relatively new to many of the countries they faced.
