This decade is NBA at its finest, better than 80s, 90s.

10s best

Do you consider Jordan, Wilkin, Hakeem, Robinson, Shaq or Ewing "average NBA players"?

What the hell does most of this board know about average NBA players in the 80s? Can you tell me about the athleticism of Orlando Woolridge? Or Johnny Dawkins? Or vast majority of players not named Michael, Akeem, Karl, or Earvin?

I love how decades after they played, with very little footage out there, people somehow know minute details of the skillset of a guy who played 10 minutes a game on the Warriors in the 80s.

If the product on the court is so much better today ... why are ratings and general interest in the NBA from the public at large way down from the 1990s?

I think the player personalities today are quite bland and the rivalries today suck by and large.

The Kings-Lakers rivalry was awesome, too bad it last like only 3 years.

I also think the removal/reduction of physical play via rule changes has created more scoring yes ... but less intensity.

Then how come you asked ISH for videos of KG during his t'wolves days?

*Sees no mention of Pierce, a top 10 SF all-time, mentioned as one of the 00s best* *leaves thread in disbelief*

Because he's probably really 15 and didn't watch before last season.
