The rise of dunking and the three-point shot

Go watch the Olympic Men's basketball team or the All-Star Game if you want "historic excellence"..

Having a team like this in the regular season is a joke and only serves the most base basketball fans.

I definitely don't understand that. I would consider Olympic Men's basketball more of a joke, since everyone knows that professional basketball in the USA is far and away a bigger deal than in other countries. It's completely stacked from a financial perspective, whereas (AFAIK) that's not the case with the Warriors.

So teams can only be stacked financially and not talent-wise?
