How did Chuck Daly get selected to coach the 1992 Dream Team but Isiah Thomas was not selected to play?

[fbj]

Wasnt Chuck Daly the coach of the Bad Boys? So he never had any say at all? I mean you can't stop the star of the Bad Boys from being on the team and have the coach of the Bad Boys coach the team.

Wingnuts aren’t happy just bitching and moaning about everything around them today, they have to go back 28 years to find some more shit to whine about.

I loved the way the Pistons handled MJ and the Bulls three years in a row, but then Chicago dominated for years.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Because Isiah is a whiney twat.

Michael Jordan said No.

Because Jordan was the Team and the Coach was just someone that would answer to Jordan...

But he was the coach of the THUGS as MJ said and got to coach the Dream Team?? LOL

Politics. What else.

Isiah couldnt do nothing but retire in 1994, sweep in the ECF and then not selected to go to the Dream Team

You seem confused.

Then why the fuck was his coach on the team

Daly might have been "Coach" in title, but Michael was asked to save the recent bad International Play by the USA, and this was going to be "Michael's Way."

Thomas was a little cuvnt for not shaking hands after the Bulls defeated the Pistons.
Jordan hated him (Thomas)

USA Basketball formed a committee and a two-year process to choose the 12 players for the first Dream Team. It was headed by C.M. Newton, the University of Kentucky Athletic Director and an assistant coach on the 1984 Olympic team.

It included NBA executives, such as Rod Thorn and Jack McCloskey, college coaches including Mike Krzyzewski and P.J. Carlesimo (who would become assistants to Chuck Daly in Barcelona) and an NBA Players Association presence (Charles Grantham).

The committee was tasked with reviewing performances from the 1990-91 and 1991-92 NBA seasons.

The first 10 members of the Dream Team were announced on a selection show on NBC on Sept. 21, 1991. Those 10 players, in order of the reveal:

Magic Johnson
Charles Barkley
Karl Malone
John Stockton
Patrick Ewing
David Robinson
Larry Bird
Chris Mullin
Scottie Pippen
Michael Jordan

How the Dream Team roster was chosen for 1992 Olympics

When FIBA voted in 1989 to allow NBA players into the Olympics, it led to a new system of choosing a U.S. men's basketball roster.

Coach Daly was selected as the coach long before they selected the team.

Also if I remember Thomas and Jordan had a running feud since the mid-1980's, and Thomas resented Jordan being the face of the league?

The Dream Team was Jordan Team and the coach was there for show.

IT was pretty overrated. John Stockton was the better player
