If we’re basing this in relation to their eras then the 92 Dream Team is better in the sense that most of them were in their primes… but they still couldn’t beat this current team in a series when you factor in how the game is played.

Lebron, Curry and Durant who are the face of the team are past their peak but the average age is just a year different. The difference back then was players primes lasted for a shorter time. Larry Bird at 35 was in his last year. Curry, Durant and Lebron are 36 (2) and 40. And each look to be playing at least 1 more season.

The ages are similar but guys who bring the number down on the ‘24 team like Haliburton and Tatum are basically just cheerleaders.
