American basketball has a "Dream Team 8". In the past, there was a Dream Team 7 and a Dream Team 6. What's going on?

Since 1992, almost all US national men's basketball teams have been composed of NBA players.

For this reason, they have been dubbed the "Dream Team". The "Dream Team" is the nickname people have given to the U.S. basketball team since the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona, ??Spain. Since this year, the American NBA Professional League has sent out

professional players representing the world's highest level to participate, so it is called the "Dream Team".

The previous Olympic Games were non-commercial sports events, so professional players from commercial

leagues such as the NBA were not allowed to participate for a long time.

Therefore This taboo began to be broken in the 1992 Barcelona Olympics. The U.S. men's national basketball team organized the U.S. team led by "Airman" Jordan and "Magic" Johnson. Their skills were superior and invincible. This made the U.S. team that year The men's basketball team became a performance without any suspense. Later people called this team the Dream Team (there is no such thing as one or two). Since then, the United States has successively organized NBA players to become the US national team, and there is another dream. Two\Three.

The first Dream Team was the "Dream Team" composed of Michael Jordan, Larry Bird, and Arvin Johnson. In this team, There is at least one arguably the best player in the world at every position. It is unprecedented to have so many outstanding players on one team! The endless power of Ewing, Malone and Barkley, Jordan, Pippen and so on. Drexler's superhuman explosive power, Robinson's quick speed and nimble mind, "Magic" Johnson and Stockton's ingenuity and creativity in handling the ball, Mullin's wonderful shooting... plus the brilliance With the comprehensive skills of "Big Bird" Bird, such an Olympic team composed of NBA star players will certainly be invincible in the world. It is worth mentioning that its head coach Daly and assistant coach Walkins have also been recruited. Selected into the Hall of Fame. Therefore, whether in terms of player talent or coaching level, the "Dream Team" is the strongest in history.

Dream Team in a narrow sense. Team) usually refers to the American men's basketball team that finally won the gold medal at the 1992 Barcelona Summer Olympics. Because this team included almost all the top basketball players in the NBA at the time, it was later called the history of sports. The most powerful basketball team is the dream team.

Of course, the emergence of this dream team is partly due to the help of FIBA. In 2006, the International Basketball Federation (FIBA) changed the original competition rules and allowed professional players to participate in international basketball events for the first time. Therefore, the American Basketball Association immediately recruited a large number of outstanding players from the NBA to form a new American national men's basketball team. .

Since then, this team has won six games in the American qualifiers, allowing the world to appreciate the power of American basketball. Therefore, the Dream Team has finally become the representative of American men's basketball. Got the opportunity to participate in the Barcelona Olympics.

At the same time, the Dream Team in a broad sense refers to the previous American men's basketball teams that have represented the United States in the World Basketball Championship and the Olympics since 1992 (Note: participated. The 1998 World Basketball Championship team is generally not considered a dream team)

In fact, the dream team witnessed the arrogance and pride of Americans to a certain extent, because it was not just any team. The American team can be called the dream team. With the rapid development of the international basketball level, American basketball has lost its previous dominance. If it does not want the Dream Team to become a joke, the American Basketball Association still has a lot to do.

However, this year’s Mengba did not disgrace the reputation of the dream team. They won the championship and the games were exciting.
