I was watching USA basketball last night and was pretty impressed with the players that we had. That got me to thinking about the Original Dream Team. Has there ever been a better, more dominating team in history? I'm not talking about just basketball. I'm talking about in any sport.
Of course, any team that has Michael Jordan is going to have a head start on everybody. Then, you add Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Charles Barkley, Karl Malone, Scottie Pippen, David Robinson, Patrick Ewing, and Clyde Drexler, I think you have the best team of all time. They didn't just win games, the destroyed other teams. I also think that if you transported this team to play now, I think they would beat this team handily.

The scores aren't that amazing, but 51-1 and 9-0 are pretty dominating. They gave up the 1 run in the 6th inning (out of 7) in the final game.
