In 1992 the United States of America sent the "Dream Team," featuring a calvary of NBA Champions and MVPs like Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, and Michael Jordan, to Barcelona, Spain, on a mission recapture the Gold after Russia toppled the competition in 1988. The ending result saw the "Dream Team" dismantle their opponents with a margin of victory of 44 points per game. It was around this time that Michael Jordan was taking the NBA to new heights as a global brand. One year after the impressive Olympic run in '92, "His Airness" and the Chicago Bulls put the finishing touches on their first three-peat. By the time the decade was over, Jordan was a 6-Time NBA Champion with an unblemished NBA Finals record that also included six NBA Finals MVPs. It's been nearly twenty years since Jordan played his last game with the Washington Wizards, but he is still universally recognized as the greatest basketball player to have ever lived by pundits like Skip Bayless and Stephen A. Smith.
The GOAT recently traveled back to Europe, where the "Dream Team" inspired generations of future NBA stars. While visiting the country of Italy, he was spotted by NBA fans who immediately showered him with "goat noises" as a sign reverence.
