The 1984 United States men's Olympic basketball team took home the gold medal during the Summer Olympics located in Los Angeles, California. Coached by Indiana University legend Bob Knight, the 1984 team was the last amateur United States team to win an Olympic gold medal in men's basketball. The team featured four of the five 1984 consensus first team All-Americans, including the greatest to ever play in the NBA, Michael Jordan. Without much competition the team went a perfect 8-0 during the tournament, averaging 95.4 points per game and holding their opponents to 63.3. This 1984 Olympic Basketball Trials basketball program features 21 signatures on the cover. The signatures are highlighted by Michael Jordan, Patrick Ewing, John Stockton, Charles Barkley, Karl Malone, Sam Perkins, Johnny Dawkins, Dee Curry, Wayman Tisdale, Leon Wood and more. The signatures are done in black ink and in our opinion the signatures rate a strong 9. Trials for the team were held in April 1984 at Knight's regular base of operations at Indiana's campus in Bloomington. Seventy players attended the trials. Accompanied by a Full LOA from JSA.
