2. 2014-15 Real Madrid
Via au.eurosport.com
Real Madrid were supposedly on the cusp of a new era of greatness following the 2013-14 campaign in which Real won the Copa del Rey and the Champions League. The squad included names such as: Iker Casillas, Pepe, Toni Kroos, James Rodriguez, Isco, Luka Modric, Gareth Bale, and, of course Cristiano Ronaldo. Not only did Real fail to match the accomplishments of the 2013-14 team. The club didn’t win a single trophy, a disgrace that landed manager Carlo Ancelotti on the unemployment line roughly 12 months after he was hoisting the Champions League trophy.

Signs that trouble was brewing for USA Basketball first appeared in 2002 when the Americans failed to notch even a top-five finish at the FIBA World Championship which was held in Indianapolis. That proved to be more than just a blip on the radar, as talented youngsters lacking top-notch international experience such as LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony and Dwyane Wade combined with veterans such as Allen Iverson and Tim Duncan struggled at the 2004 Olympics right out of the gates. Puerto Rico shocked the world by dominating the US, and the Americans failed to win gold for the first time since the ’92 Dream Team. “Never again” became the mantra of USA Basketball, and the so-called “Redeem Team” would right this wrong by winning gold at the 2008 Summer Olympics.
