CHICAGO -- Michael and Magic versus Kobe and LeBron? It could be coming to a video game console near you.
With USA Basketball and 2K Sports forming a partnership, fans can see what happens when the 1992 Dream Team goes up against this year's Olympic gold medal winner once NBA 2K13 hits the shelves this fall.
Never mind that it's not quite the real thing, more fuel is about to be added to the debate even if Michael Jordan says the 1992 team "was a more well-rounded basketball team."
It's hard to argue, considering the 1992 Dream Team had Jordan, Magic Johnson and Larry Bird. The team that just took gold in London wasn't bad, either, with LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Kevin Durant leading the way.
