The new nickname of the United States basketball team that won gold in Paris

Recently assigned to Paris 2024, Lebron James renamed the North American team that became champions for the fifth time in a row.

Last Saturday, we experienced a new historic day with the nomination of the United States to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. From 1992 to the present, the North American team is known as the “Dream team”because of the presence of NBA stars who since that year can defend the colors of their country. In debates from all sides, Lebron James himself decided to change the nickname of this super team that already has five gold medals in a row.

The United States squad at these 2024 Games consists of 12 more players than the established NBA. Lebron James, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant were the offensive leaders and most consistent in the tournament, but they combined very well. Devin Booker, Anthony Davis, Bam Adebayo, Joel Embiid and Jrue Holiday were the first weapons for Steve Kerr, while Jayson Tatum and Anthony Edwards, with a lower profile than usual, were also able to work together to take the gold in Paris . Haliburton, another member of the squad, joked on his social networks about the victory “when you don’t do anything for the group, but you still get an A.”

James, who was named the team’s MVP, oversaw the historic renaming of the United States National Team. At the press service after the last game, a journalist asked him: There is the dream team, the Redemption team. What is this team?” After a few seconds of pause, Lebron responded: “The Avengers”. In addition to the squad members, the team has a great figure on the bench. Steve Kerr, Tyronn Lue, Erik Spoelstra are some of the names of the coaches of the champion team.

Argentina, responsible for Lebron James’ bronze medal

Ahead of the United States’ bid for Paris 2024, the popular pipe brand has unveiled its latest advertising featuring the multi-time NBA champion. “I’m going for my third Olympic gold but I’m still thinking about my first bronze.” These are the words of Lebron, in the middle of some images during training. He recounted what happened in 2004, James’ first game, where the Argentine National Team won the biggest prize in Athens.
