Over the course of the last few days, there's been some debate over whether or not the 2012 Olympic basketball team could beat the 2008 Olympic basketball team. Head coach Mike Krzyzewski thinks this year's Team USA is more versatile than the one that won the gold medal in 2008 and that, therefore, they could be the better team. But, Kobe Bryant isn't interested in having that debate. In this clip, he discusses what he thinks would happen if this year's Olympic team could go back in time and play the 1992 Dream Team that dominated the world during the '92 Olympics. And, surprise, surprise: Kobe thinks this year's team would win!

We're not so sure we're siding with him here—especially with guys like Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh sitting on the sidelines this summer. But, it'd sure be fun to watch that game if it ever took place. So, who ya got?
