Am I Dreaming...

...or was there never a definitive documentary made of the 1992 Dream Team? I mean, did no kid from UCLA with a video camera follow them around for two weeks, capturing the 3am poker games with Barkley/Jordan et al? What the fuck? I mean, the trash-talking must've been epic. Just getting everyone on a mic during those blowouts woulda been priceless, no?

Barkley:
On the goal of the '92 Olympic Dream Team when playing Panama in the Tournament of the Americas: "To get the Canal back."

Before the Dream Team's game against Angola in the 1992 Olympics: "All I know about Angola is Angola's in trouble."

This was when the US Olympic Association or whatever the fuck it's called lost all credibility with me. Push aside the actual Olympians 'cause Magic wanted a chance at a medal. Yeah, that's the American way! USA! USA! USA!
