    60's= raw talent and stacked championship teams
    70's= wide range of teams at the top every year (8 different champions in the decade)
    80's= Magic/Bird nuff said
    90's= aggressive tough defenses with great rivalries thanks to the physical defense
    00's= the rise of player mobility, Big 3's start to form near the end of the decade
    10's= skilled and analytical basketball begins to grow "the 3 point era"
    Finding joy in basketball is easy when you love the sport... these are my favorite things from each era. Trying to pick and choose which is better just because they played different styles or different paces is like choosing between desserts. All desserts are good whether you get cake or ice cream!
    Stop trying to nitpick the past legends and just appreciate where it got us to today. IT'S STILL BASKETBALL. (btw I'm 21 so I've only seen the late 00's and 10's eras so if you don't agree thats ok)

      Juniu R i...don't think so...Have you seen the 2017 draft? 7 players ALONE have the potential to be top 3 players in the league, and like 20 total players that can be at least GOOD roleplayers.
      Even in the 2018 draft, we got guys like Jaren Jackson JR who looks like AD 2.0, Ayton, Bagley, Trae Young, Kevin Knox, MPJ who look like offensive monsters and Mo Bamba, Wendell Carter Jr, Mikal Bridges, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Lonnie Walker that look like they can be at least good defensive players, if not amazing two-way stars.
      If the Euroleague doesn't show us the next Michael Jordan, LeBron, Shaq, etc then your "dream" has a 0% chance of happening.

    • @Humble_808
      @Humble_808 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Juniu R I mean...you can't really go on and on, you named like more than half of them. BTW, KAT was born and grew up in New Jersey. He is considered as mixed, but people say he's Dominican because it's nicer to see good players that aren't American, even though his dad is american and he grew up in New Jersey.
      And i also think the players that i named and that will come in the upcoming drafts will easily overcome the international players.

      1. Porzingis is not like KD, no one ever was or will be as KD, a combination of a SG's speed, a skinny, lengty SF body and a C height.
      2. You clearly don't know Dr.J OR Giannis playstyle
      3. KAT was, is and will be special either way
      4. Ben Simmons is literally a modern version of Magic Johnson, nothing to do with LeBron.
      5. Embiid isn't more versatile than Hakeem. Hakeem was literally a faster AD with better defense.
      6. Wiggins isn't special. He is just an athletic player with all the tools he necesary to be great that has extremely low work ethic. You can look at his 1st season and at his 4th season and you won't be able to notice a difference. He hasn't improved at all.
      These are not "1nce" in a lifetime players since you've named like 6 of them. Once in a lifetime is someone like LeBron, a guy who we haven't seen ever before. For example:
      Porzingis - We've seen Dirk
      Gannis - I'll give you this one
      KAT - We've seen Hakeem....when he couldn't defend and just decided to play on the perimeter
      Ben Simmons - We've seen Magic
      Embiid - We've seen prime Hakeem
      Wiggins - We've seen tons of athletic players that couldn't stay in the NBA more than 5 seasons. I guess the Timberwolves either trust him WAY TOO MUCH or are just dumb.
      Not saying that Embiid, Ben Simmons, KAT, Giannis and Porzingod aren't special but they're not what you said they were. IMO they all have potential to be TOP 10 players, eventhough most of them already are at least top 20.

    -The defense was awesome throughout the NBA in the 90s.
    -Defensive specialists were everywhere.
    -Post footwork was everywhere.
    -Rivalries were intense.
    -There was better crowd involvement.
    -NBA on NBC is still the MOST ICONIC sporting event in NBA; maybe even more iconic than Monday Night Football.
    -Many, many games in the regular season had PLAYOFF INTENSITY, unlike today (unless it was the Warriors vs Thunder in 2016-2018).
    -It was the most balance era of offense and defense, whereas the game today is heavily skewed towards offensive players.
    -Guards had both post moves and moves off the dribbles
    -Had the only two players who actully won DPOY and MVP in the same respective year: Jordan and Hakeem
    -Mind games were a plenty
    -The greatest rebounder the game has ever seen in Dennis Rodman (and still no one in this era is even close).
    Don't know how people can shame the 90s. Modern era is some of the most boring regular season basketball I have ever seen.

      Bro, you calling Rodman the best rebounder ever is... suspicious. Look at Wilt. He was a freak of nature and he would get any rebound he wanted. Better yet, look at Bill Russell, who was similarily great, but much smaller, so more "skilled" at it.

    What sucks about the 90s was how so many players careers were cut short starting in the mid to late 80s into the 90s. Many had put up nice career resumes, but still cut at least 5 seasons short
    Larry Bird - back busted by 31 years old coming off his best statistical seasons-should have aged gracefully into the mid 90s.
    Magic Johnson - retired at 31 due to HIV + was becoming a better shooter-should have aged into mid/late 90s.
    Ralph Sampson - one of the GOAT college players-busted knees at 26. Should have aged into the mid 90s
    Dominique Wilkins - torn Achilles at 31-had nice seasons after but limited his athleticism
    Arvydas Sabonis - not allowed to come to the NBA til he was in his 30s in the mid 90s and had busted knees already-should have been one of the greatest C's ever
    Len Bias - next big thing dies of overdose after being drafted by the Celtics
    Benji- the next Magic Johnson murdered before getting to college. Should have been a star into the early 2ks.
    Penny Hardaway - injuries destroyed his superstardom at only 25/26 years old
    Grant Hill - busted ankle at 27 years old-lebron b4 lebron
    Tim Hardaway - busted knees at 27 and despite having nice career after, he was limited by the knees + injury prone
    Kevin Johnson - injury prone by late mid 20s-retired in early 30s due to injuries(legit superstar who continues to be one of the most underrated pg's ever as he's never mentioned as Barkleys duo against MJ/Pip-people act like it was just Barkley by himself.
    Mark Price - injury prone and done by about 30 y.o.
    Shawn Kemp - drugs,etc done by 29/30 y.o.
    Derrick Coleman- should have been a legit career average of 20/10 but injury prone/lazy by 27
    Infamous Sam Bowie - known as the guy taken ahead of MJ, still had the potential for a couple of all star seasons
    Brad Daugherty - 5x all star career avg's of 19.5ppg/9.5rpg/3.7apg retired at 28y.o. Basically poor mans Duncan
    Drazen Petrovic - one of the deadliest shooters ever dead at 28 by car crash when he was finally getting a chance to shine as a 20+ppg scorer
    Larry Johnson - went from superstar to role player in the blink of an eye/limited by back problems-retired at 31 but basically done by late 20s
    Alonzo Mourning - superstardom killed by kidney condition at 30 y.o. - still ended up a great role player and still defensive anchor in limited minutes
    Probably many more im forgetting. Were talking tons of players who should dominate NBA Career Totals stats but were all robbed of a lot of good to great to HOF level basketball.
    The 2k/2010 era players will dominate NBA Career Totals because they just play much longer-lack of physicality in the game + medical/training/dieting/lifestyle-quality of life advancements

    I've been watching NBA since the 90s and said this year that it's the best it's been for 20 years. Basketball got exciting again as we walked away from super teams to power duos and how talent is spread across the league. This is how it felt in the 90s. but even then regular season basketball now can sometimes be unwatchable. Fouls being called every possession, the game favoring the offensive player, etc. Now it's more about who can score the highest (with little to no focus on defense) instead of who can stop who. If you were alive to see that type of basketball, I'm telling you, man, that was some of the most exciting times to be a fan. I feel like all of today's stats are inflated. These young cats will never get that. But that being said I'm excited that basketball is back and looking forward to watching the playoffs this year. It's a good time as any to be a basketball fan come playoff time.

      It's interesting. The bulls would have to adjust to The Warriors 3pt efficiency across the team, a big change to the defence their used to. However, the Bulls would be more physical, new to the Warriors.
      But who's guarding MJ? Klay? KD? There's nobody to stop him. But KD could stop Pippen, Draymond wouldn't back down on Rodman etc. Nobody is stopping Cousins, and the Warriors bench has much more depth.

    But I've always known that the 70s, 80s & 90s NBA game was better. Oh, you're talking to the young people who haven't watched it all. I guess young people think they know just from watching highlights. They don't play defensive highlights as often & defense was a big part. Every player used to play defense

    Jordan>LeBron>Kobe
    Reason? Beyond the typical stats and analysis that you see, which generally support this (PER, Win Shares etc), let's talk about Finals performance. You know, the "clutch" time. When legacies are made.
    Jordan has had no bad Finals in his career. None. His worst statswise was 1996, the 72-10 team. He averaged 27 points on 41% shooting. This was against an all-time defender in Payton. What about the rest of his Finals? Over 40 ppg vs the Suns. Game-winners vs LA. The amazing games vs Utah (Flu Game, Game 6 in 1998 etc). He ALWAYS performed.
    Let's turn to LeBron. He has had 2 bad Finals series in his career. The worst was 2011, when he had 17.8 ppg on 48% shooting and was notably absent in the crucial games 4 and 5. The other was 2007, which was when he was the only scoring option against an amazing team. What about the rest? 28.6 ppg and dominated KD in 2012, 25 10 and 7 vs the Spurs in 2013 (37 points in Game 7), 28.2 points on 58% in 2014. And then vs GS. The best opponent out of all these players'. He was great in every single series. 36, 30, 34, 34 were his ppg averages. All but one had over 50% shooting. He shot well from 3 in all but the first. He averaged at least 7 assists per game and 8.5 rebouds per game in all. And what about his individual games? 4 39+ games in 2015, two 41-point games in 2016, one in 2017 (along with 39 in Game 3), and 51 in 2017. He might have lost 6 of them, but it was almost always not his fault. He ALMOST ALWAYS performed.
    And last, Kobe. Unlike LeBron and Jordan in 91, Kobe has always had the best team in the Finals. His worst Finals, by far, was 2004. He had just one good game then. In Game 3, he had 11 points. 20 points on 32% FG% in Game 4. 24 points on 33% FG% in Game 5. He lost the series by himself, choosing not to feed Shaq the ball, who was literally unstoppable (27 ppg on 62% shooting). His first Finals series was even worse than LeBron's 2007 one. He had 16 ppg on 36% shooting, taking away some shots from the incredible Shaq, who had 38 ppg on 61% shooting. The trend would continue in 2001, to a lesser degree. He had 25 ppg on 41% shooting. Good, but remember he was severely outplayed by AI, who had no help (36 ppg on similar efficiency). 2002 was a lone bright spot in the Finals for Kobe. 27 ppg on 51%, albeit against a weak Nets team. 2009 was also solid against a Magic team that was in excellent shape. But when his team needed him the most vs the Celtics, what did he do? His base stats in 2008 are underwhelming. 40% shooting, 6 of 19 in the pivotal Game 4 when the Celtics were making the comeback. Some might say he avenged that in 2010, but they are completely wrong, as he still shot 40% and below 32% from 3. In Game 7, his AWFUL 6 of 24 from the field almost cost him the title.
    In the end, this is what sets apart the players. Jordan has never misstepped in the Finals for more than 2 games in a series. LeBron has done so once, and failed to deliver in 2007. Kobe has done so in 2001 and 2004, and was unconvincing in 2008 and 2010, the type of performance which would get LeBron a mountain of hate if he did that today.

Of course, Steph curry is way better than him and is not a role player like Horry. But he's never been the finals MVP, so there's something for you to wonder about the fact that he's not been the best player in a final series and/or the amount of help he's had. I hate to undermine a guy like curry, but gotta do it to humble blind fans like you.

    Half of these names were primarily 2000s. You got Dirk and Paul Pierce on there and they were drafted in 98.
    If you want to go by draft year, that's fine... but why's Michael Jordan on there? He was drafted in 1984
    If you want to go by their prominent years, Why's Dirk and Paul Pierce on there? They were prominent in the 2000s. Dirk had his best year in 2011. Steve Nash and Jason Kidd were both late bloomers that had their success in the 2000s as well. Magic Johnson... only played 2 years in the 90s because of his illness. The 90s got 1 decent year out of him, and 1 final lap in 96. Larry Bird retired in 92 and was laying down on his belly instead of going to the bench because of his back problems... hardly prime... and also only 2 years in the 90s.
    You can't have it both ways. You've basically combined 20 years of talent into "the 90s".
    My personal feeling is that it should be based on the best years of each respective player, therefore, there's AT LEAST 10 players on this list that should be taken off.
    From Larry Bird (drafted in 1979) to Dirk Nowitzki and Paul Pierce (1998) you've got nearly 20 years... but if you only look at the 90s decade on it's own, it just looks too pitiful, don't it?
    Make no mistake about it. The 90s were a fairly weak decade talent-wise.

People say the 90s are trash skill-wise compared to NOW. Nobody is denying the 90s had MANY great players for the era or iconic moments, they're simply using the very basic and very visually obvious concept that athletes naturally get way more athletic AND skilled throughout the years. You basically just argued that the 90s were iconic and competitive, but the counterargument has nothing against that, it's simply saying the players from this era are just BETTER at bball than players in the 90s. Not every single player and not more legendary, but just better at the sport. This was originally brought up by a twitter personality to support LBJ's GOAT case, but at this point it's seriously hard to see why people can't just admit that players are better now. Not even tougher or having a better mentality, but just better

  • @oneman9121

    I don't hate the 90's NBA, what I do hate is when people disrespect today's players while glorifying the 90's. The greatest NBA stars like LeBron & Steph can play in any era. Jordan can play in today's era as well.
    The difference are the 2nd/3rd tier role players that can't shoot. The biggest difference lies with guys like Dale Davis, Antonio Davis, Elden Campbell, Chucky Brown, Calbert Chaeney, Bimbo Coles, etc. THOSE GUYS HAVE NO CHANCE IN TODAY'S GAME.
    Players evolve. Role players today have a BETTER CHANCE to succeed in previous eras because THEY CAN SHOOT. I'm not hating on 90's players, I'm just stating facts. I can also argue guys like Reggie Miller and Glen Rice would be FAR better players today than they were in their eras.
    But the fact is, is that the 8th/9th/10th/11th roster spots on today's teams are so much more talented than any previous decade.

Better skill=Better pace 😏 Like I mentioned in my post, the 90's talent pool were diluted with unskilled role players... hence why physicality shot up to compensate for the lack of skill... the top tier players like MJ, Barkley, Malone, etc. will always be great regardless of era/handcheck/zone, but their supporting casts would stand no chance against today's talent pool.

    • @oneman9121
      @oneman9121 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sad as it is to say, no 90's team (other than '96 Bulls) would stand a chance against today's teams. Even if we're playing by 90's rules, Durant/LeBron/Westbrook would all get to play 1-on-1 basketball due to the lack of a free zone. Basketball evolves, it doesn't take a step back.
      Realistically, only the the great teams of the 80's like the Lakers/Celtics/Pistons/76ers among other teams that era that went 8-10 deep can compete. I'd say '86 Celtics, '85 Lakers, '89 Pistons, '83 76ers can all give the Warriors a run for their money.

    I think the 90's was obviously a great decade but the main argument is that currently, basketball players and play is superior.

    Today's play is incredibly boring with all the 3 pt shots.

      3s in the 90s were set up plays or last second shots, now they shoot them on fast breaks

    Usualy when I see add in the middle of the video, I skip it. But these video-add transitions are so smooth I just... can't skip it and kinda wants to see it until the end

    In the 90's, there were about 10 bad teams, in today's league there are only about 5 GOOD teams. Enough said!

    Great video. A lot of people underrate this era which was really a golden era of basketball
