Which other starting roster can match up with Baron Davis, Michael Finley, Paul Pierce (who's pretty much as good as anyone else in the NBA), Elton Brand and Jermaine O'Neal? (that is, I think O'Neal's on the team)
They still should have easily won the tournament. Cockiness, overconfidence and lack of desire killed them. Not the players.

Well, the first loss was definatly over confidence... but the second????
How could they not learn thier lesson?
The first game (may have) had nothing to do with talent, but the second did. If the real dream team were out there, they wouldn't have lost, no matter how cocky they are.
