PARIS - The original "Dream Team" set the gold standard for Olympic basketball but today's American stars face a tougher test in Paris, Kevin Durant and Steph Curry said on Thursday, with some of the NBA's biggest names hailing from around the globe.The US team had to contend with just nine international players from the NBA on the road to gold at the 1992 Barcelona Games.
So all these guys are huge stars in their own ways," said Durant, the all-time leading scorer at the Olympics for the United States."They're all the best of the best in the world."An Olympic tune-up match this month against South Sudan provided an excellent reminder that the US team must stay alert, as the world's newest country lost to the 16-times Olympic champions by one point, 101-100."Everybody's a contender.
