Poor Image: Dream Team

Go To

The current picture's quality is very poor, even for such an old photograph. Luckily, I've found this alternate, higher-quality image of the 1992 Dream Team. Should we change it to that?

The suggestion's a definite improvement quality-wise...pending other options, I'd be fine with the swap.

Btw, current in HQ has the creator's watermark. So this would be a case of no-go, right?

3 is way better than the current. However, I'm open to other suggestions as well, since conceptually it might not mean much to people unfamiliar with American basketball.

I have no idea who these people are. Besides being a sports team, obviously.

this maybe as a second image?

Some stats for a caption maybe?

Went 8-0 in the Olympics, Won each game by an average of 43.8 points, the closest game was 117-85 vs. Croatia... serious props to them for even standing up to the best basketball players ever.

[up] That would have to be cropped significantly in order for anyone to be easily seen at wiki size...the caption giving some statistics could work.

Why don't we go with 3 with the current caption?

I don't think it illustrates more than "team", which makes it pretty much JAFAAC.

We'll have to pull the current regardless of replacement anyway...

I never actually clocked this, but we've got enough consensus for 3 so it's swapped in and tagged. Keep the old caption?

Also, can someone double-check the note and make sure that I got the names arranged right?

[up] I'm old enough to have seen most of them in their relative prime, plus the Dream Team in action.

[up][up] Agreed. I don't see how this is any better than the previous.

Yeah, going back through the thread the consensus isn’t as strong as I was thinking it was. A more explanatory caption will help.

Let's just keep the current caption for now, and if anyone else has a better one, suggest it in the caption repair thread.

I've made the caption a bit more explanatory; locking up.
