Special Olympics Iowa’s Post

**The Dream Team: Ballin' Out of Control** Yo, let's talk about the '92 Dream Team. This squad was straight fire! Packed with 11 future Hall of Famers and a college champ, they were the basketball version of the Avengers and the Justice League! You'd think with that much talent, egos would be outta control, right? Wrong! These dudes put their differences aside and played like a well-oiled machine. TEAMWORK, that's what made 'em unstoppable. They crushed the competition so hard, other teams were starstruck, asking for autographs and pics like they were meeting superheroes. It wasn't just about scoring points; it was about dominating the game and showing the world what basketball was really about. The '92 Dream Team wasn't just a team; they were a movement. They proved that when you combine talent with teamwork, you get a force to be reckoned with. #DreamTeam #Basketball #Teamwork #Domination #OlympicGold #Legends

It can be really hard for me just speaking verbally 🧠➡️👄➡️💬 When I go to the Dr I have incoprated writing down the issues, symptoms I’ve had. I also write down any questions I have. It keeps things on track and I get help with and health problems. I’ve done public speaking and it’s not something that makes me nervous. I write down what I’m going to say and that helps me stay on track. I did an interview an interview at Special Olympics Summer games and asked for the questions beforehand so that I had what I was going to so say accessible. #communication #AutismSpectrum #Epilepsy #Disability #Capability
