Larry Bird told Magic Johnson 'Michael Jordan is now’ during 1992 Olympics

There are so many epic stories about the 1992 Olympic Dream Team. The names and characters assembled on that team combined with the fact that they were the first team of professionals to play for Team USA were a perfect match.

Ahmad Rashad had a story of his own that he shared on Twitter on Tuesday. It involves Rashad overhearing a debate between Larry Bird, Magic Johnson and Michael Jordan at a hotel in Barcelona during the 1992 Olympics.

As Rashad tells it, Patrick Ewing and Charles Barkley were also involved, but were quickly dismissed for having never won a championship.
