22. July 1992, the dream team played “the biggest match than no one saw”

Michael Jordan is formally. Of all the prestigious games in which he participated during his famous career, including 179 in playoffs, it is this coated training at Monte Carlo, which is the most beautiful!

We are 22. July 1992. years. The American basketball team landed on the old continent to prepare Barcelona Olympic Games, which will mark the return to the business of professional players.

In this case it will be a mythical adventure ” Dream Team “, Tim Great Trident Jordan – Magic – Bird that will revolutionize World Basketball at the end of the master tournament in Barcelona.

“Ten undisputed families of familiar families playing against each other”

“It’s the best game I’ve ever played”ensures its airiness without hesitation. “Because there was no coaching. It was a little arbitration … but it was ten of that in this match. Considering everything that you would imagine all that you would bring together everything that would bring together all the best It matches everything you think all that you think all the best would gather all that you consider all the best. You imagine all the best players in the celebrity hall.

From his place as an assistant, PJ Carlesimo confirms that this training course in Monaco was exceptional. Jordan – Magic Rivalry then at its height. But it is arbitration, a FIBA path, which will quickly be problematic.

“I warned Chuck (Dali) before the tournament that the judge was certainly pretty bad”Laugh pj carlesimo on Siriuskm. “Because there were judges around the world, then these judges never met the NBA players, so that Chuck told me that Chuck told me from another training, Chuck told me that Chuck told me that Chuck told me that I was told that Chuck told me that Chuck told me that Chuck told me that Chuck told me that Chuck told me that Chuck told me that I was told to Chuck said Chuck that Chuck told me from another training. We found that Chuck told me that Chuck told me that Chuck said that Chuck said it was Chuck said it was Chuck.

As Michael Jordan said, the intensity of matches ended by training awarded on madness. PJ Carlesimo reminds that the duel between Jordan and magic was the engine of these epic confrontations.

“We approached the bare arms a few times. And the matches stretched in length … because when we reached the end of the game, it was impossible to shoot a shot less than five feet. The guys pushed the attacker with two hands that then made the attack.

And poor international judges (including French Philippe Manassero) To be two lengths of these NBA superstar with key ego.

“The boys shouted on them and there was so intensity in the matches. Because every guy who tried to spend them. I left me alone. I thought I left me alone. After that he played me. Monte Carlo. Rod Thorn, Chuck, Barkley, we were all golf in Monte Carlou. It was wounded. And it was still swearing. And it was still approaching what they said more about what they had closer to what more approached. Under control. Chuck had to stop everything: That’s enough, all out! »»

“To tell them something, it was better to be sure of yourself!” »»

Read after two days, two European zebras will be able to conjude that they were involved in the basketball history. For his part, PJ Carlesimo also suffered that he had to whistle these five containers.

Because, for the rest, “dreams” “dream team”, so I speak, in Autuckinska. You don’t really need staff training when you have the biggest stars on the basketball planet!

“I Must Say That I Did Not Have Properly Speaking With Them. One of the areas That Had Been Entrusted To Me Was Scout. With A Piston Assistant, We Went To Nbc Studios To Use Their Equipment and Make Videos (VHS). At the Shotaround The Next Day, We Gave That To The Players And They Looked at Them! I Remember Portland, I Good Shooter From Afar. Magic Left Him Space and Returned Magic That Magic Came To See Me: “Well Coach, I thought he didn’t know how to They’re shooting! “These guys listened. If they told them something, it was better to be sure of yourself!” »

Motivated Magic JohnsonTheir brave captain and sublimided anger to beat Michael Jordan, their real boss, American stars flew over the competition. No team will be able to approach their level. As for this famous “Scrimage” Monte Carl, it is obvious Michael Jordan who comes out of the great winner (with his team). The last part of the bulls will achieve 17 out of 40 points in its team that will inflict the trap game.

He was transferred to -9 at the beginning of the game, the Jordanian “white” finally won in Match 40-36, behind the Fatal 17-4 in the line-up that he would not physically retain a super predator who is “MJ”.

“If someone managed to record a sound record for this match, it doesn’t necessarily record basketball, just sound, it would be priceless”

The images of this match are still extremely rare, which still determines the founding myth of “Dream Team”. In the Dream Team Book by Jack McCallum (editions Talent sport), Coach K. He spoke about the memory of this legendary match. And more than the pictures, he wanted sounds!

« From time to time, I do something and the replica that expresses in this match happens to me Blic: “They simply moved the stadium in Chicago in Monaco.” I smile. Many players are indubitizers because there are cameras. But that day the door was closed. It was just you and me. “I, I have that, too, what do you have?” He taught me a lot about accepting personal challenges. You know, if someone could record a sound record for this match, not necessarily shooting basketball, but only sounds, it would be priceless. »

The same impressions in Michael Jordan, more than proud, which was dominated by magical Johnson, but also to be part of a unique labor force.

« In many ways it was the best match I’ve ever participated in. Because the room is closed and it was just basketball. Matches like these speak a lot about DNA players, a desire they have to win. The magic was sick for two days. »
