    The best FIBA teams converged on Paris last summer and battled for supremacy. A look back at this amazing tournament will set your heart racing. February 18 on Netflix.

    MIES (Switzerland) - It's widely acknowledged as one of the best Olympic basketball tournaments ever staged. For those that witnessed it in person, or watched on TV, the race to the top of the podium was pulsating.

    Now Netflix goes behind the scenes and speaks to the protagonists.

    It goes into the locker room to hear France coach Vincent Collet firing up his team before the Gold Medal Game against the USA.

    "We're going to beat the Americans in Paris!" Collet says.

    "We taught the world what it could be like," says USA's Tokyo Olympic Gold Medal winning coach Gregg Popovich, referring to the Dream Team of 1992, when NBA players suited up in international basketball for the first time.

    "Nobody has any respect for us here," says Serbia coach Svetislav Pesic with Nikola Jokic staring at him intensely, eyes wide open. "Go out and win!"

    "They're playing for their country," USA's two-time Olympic gold medalist Dwyane Wade says. "There's a different pride."
