Love was better than Dwight in the Olympic setting and Kobe hadnt fallen off yet. Bosh was probably the best big of either team thoughNah...2012 had no bigs (AD barely played). Besides,most of the guys on the team were 22-24 years old and didn't reach their peak yet. They were good enough for gold but not all time great imo. Bron, Melo, and KD had to carry that squad.
Wade was beastMan how easily I forget just how amazing DWade was. Them outlet dimes from JKidd too brah
Kobe saving the country on some captain america type shyt.

Fair analysisLove was better than Dwight in the Olympic setting and Kobe hadnt fallen off yet. Bosh was probably the best big of either team though
I wouldnt discount how they(Love, Kobe) played on that 2012 team, especially if youre mentioning Kobe on the 2008 team
Bron was better in 2012, and KD in 2012 might have been the best player on either the 2008/2012 teams. He was absolutely crushing shyt
Melo was much better on the 2012 team too

Im sure they would all trade wins with each other if they ranFair analysis
I still think 08 had more balance. Do you think either team would beat 92?





Wish the '08 Gold Medal game wasn't on in like 2 in the mourning. That game was a damn classic. NBC didn't even replay the game later.
Its crazy how young that team was especially compared to '92. Bron/Melo/Paul/Wade/Howard/DWill were between 22-26
all that athleticism with their playing style would have ran the 92 squad ragged. But that's another thread
