The 1992 USA Men’s Olympic Basketball Team, better known as the "Dream Team," is widely celebrated as the greatest collection of talent ever assembled in any sport. This was the first time active NBA professionals were permitted to compete in the Olympics, a response to the U.S. bronze medal finish in 1988. Led by icons Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, and Larry Bird, the team was less a sports squad and more a global cultural phenomenon.
In Barcelona, they were untouchable. Coached by Chuck Daly, the team went 8–0, winning every game by at least 32 points and finishing with a staggering average margin of victory of 43.8 points. They scored over 100 points in every single game without Daly ever calling a single timeout. The team was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2010.
