one of the best moments in modern basketball

how a country a fraction of the size of america can beat them at their own game

due to the pure love of the game in lithuania

[piemuo88]

ok usa is great , but you have to respect that a country with only 3 million people plays that good

[babyfaceassassin21]

@1PunchKO100 let stick to the topic.... because you said that my claim that the USA players they sent at that time was not the best is invalid.... and youre just giving me names of lithuanian players that you said didnt play as well..... can you imagined kobe bryant playing defense on jasikevicius???? can you imagine those tall but skinny lithuanian center guarding prime shaquille oneal??? usa sent young players thats a fact.....

[babyfaceassassin21]

@1PunchKO100 well i can named other american basketball players that is not on that team and will beat that USA Dream Team that they sent on the olympics...... can you say you can assembled other lithuanian players and beat that lithuanian team they sent???? NO!!!! because that lithuanian team is the best they have....... a team with kobe, shaq and kidd will school that young team easily...... they sent wade,anthony and lebron at that time they were too young....plus amare and okafor

@babyfaceassassin21 If you must brag about best players blablabla. There is plenty of videos on youtube with 1992 team . So you can go and release your intelligence there.

@babyfaceassassin21 If you take Jasikevicius out of that team. They are done. No best players are ever available for the team. Weather it's injury, insurance policy, personal commitment or just lack of interest. They pick the best available at the given time. They picked this team and they lost for a 2nd time to Lithuania. So making a statement if they have sent the best is invalid in this situation. It's like saying if my grandmother had balls she would have served in an army

@1PunchKO100 they sent young players at that time...... what im saying is that they are not as dominant if they dont send the best they have.... you're telling me that it is invalid??? ok lets put it this way take away jasikevicius on that lithuanian team and lets see if they can beat that young USA team...... kobe is not there, shaq is not there the point guard they sent is marbury when they can have jason kidd... i can have another USA team that will beat that young DREAM TEAM......

@babyfaceassassin21 Maybe you don't know that Big Z is also a Lithuanian? He didn't play. Macijauskas who shoots 60% from the floor was also not available. I'm not making Lithuania out as unstoppable force. US would win 980 games out of a 1000 possibly. But what I'm saying is no team has it's best players at any one time. With only exception of 1992 Dream Team. Hence the name. Oh you American stereotypes........

[Koco077]

MACEDONIA IS THE BEST!!!!!

to bad it was just a group game

@Kaknose

Actually basketball isn't America's game, Canadians invented basketball...

[babyfaceassassin21]

1PunchKO100 its invalid??? you just dont know what you're saying... are you lithuanian thats why you're like making lithuania like the unstoppable force in basketball???? those lineups that USA sent was a good team but not the best they have at that time... as far as i can remember they dont even sent a good big man aside from duncan.... thats why when duncan is in foul trouble US is in trouble... Maybe you dont have idea how dominant shaquille o'neal at that time....
