It could be argued that Sabonis led the Soviet Union in their 1988 Gold Medal.

That's exactly what Wikipedia says: "Sabonis led the Soviet Union to a gold medal".

Fixed the question. I forgot about the era when the U.S. sent college players and the Eastern Bloc sent referees :)

That's one very salty comment. The USA team was beaten by the Soviets fair and square in the semifinals in 1988. As the Washington Post said in their contemporary article, "Wednesday, there was no resetting of the clock twice in the final three seconds, as happened 16 years ago. The Soviets won this semifinal game straight up, 82-76, led by Rimas Kurtinaitais' 28 points and seven rebounds and Arvidas Sabonis' 13 points and 13 rebounds." On the other hand, we are talking about the same Olympics that saw Carl Lewis win his share of gold medals in a completely fair and non-cheating manner *cough cough*...

Yes that's right, except QM was talking about the 1972 olympics, where the soviets got THREE inbound chances even though their passes went out of bounds as time expired.

The comment he was replying to explicitly mentioned 1988 Olympics and Sabonis.

@vitriden: It doesn't change the fact that the US sent college players and the USSR sent grown-ass men. That's a mismatch no matter what country you're from. Once the US could send real adults to the Olympics, it was a wrap.

Even so, Luis Scola was on the Argentinian team that won gold. He was the leading scorer in a number of their contests.

Joel Embiid also claims to have killed a lion when he was a kid. Admitted later that he totally made it up (which should have been obvious when part of it included him carrying the lion back to his village as a 6 year old).

Isaiah Thomas should be Isiah Thomas. Isaiah is the former Boston Celtics Point Guard and not the Pistons one who played in the Magic era and kissed him...

To know that jordan won 6 final mvp, there are people , but to know that Carmelo Anthony has won Olympic gold 3 times, there is no one left. American patriotism lol .

They're not all supposed to be easy. It's a fair question. He is the only guy to do it.

That's what makes it a quiz. You're not gonna know all the answers. I mean, I knew all the answers, but that's because I watch basketball.

you might want to add an asterisk to the jerry west one because that is also allegedly (although we all know its true). The NBA refuses to acknowledge its him since they would then have to pay him royalties
