Justice Leaguer meets Dream Teamers
In case you missed it, a serious meeting of Dream Teamers took place during the 2012 NBA Finals a couple of weeks ago. BuckBokai isn’t referring here to the Miami Heat and Oklahoma City Thunder, although note that five players from these squads – Kevin Durant, James Harden, Serge Ibaka, Lebron James, Russell Westbrook – will be playing in the London Games and another two – Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade – could well be.
Instead, check out the below YouTube to see Wonder Woman (Lynda Carter version) of the Justice League meet ever brilliant Charles Barkley of The Dream Team and Shaquille O’Neal of Dream Teams II and III after Game 3 of that series. Ms. Carter’s smile remains as appealing beautiful at 60 as in her heyday, though she’s clearly the victim of an overzealous maker-up.
And isn’t it amazing that Lynda is still able to sell her “brand” based on a TV series that ran for three seasons, was fairly well jeered for its cheesiness when running to the point of non-renewal by ABC, and has since been pushed well back into the recesses of the American public consciousness? Was Ms. Carter the only one that could pull off the Wonder Woman role? (We have to accept that Adrienne Palacki couldn’t, BuckBokai supposes.)
If only she weren’t a Heat fan…
