No disrespect, but part of the disrespect of the past comes from the constant debates about the GOAT created by sports media. If sports media personalities don’t think they have a role in this they are either in denial or delusional.
They are definitely practicing more 3s now, but "more skilled"? Do we feel like the guys doing tricks in the Rucker were "more skilled" than Jason Kidd? Are receivers more skilled than running backs? Do we feel like today's musicians are more skilled than musicians in the 90s too? Are the movie stars more beautiful, or does it just come down to taste?
That’s weird because athletic records are always being broken. It’s an inevitable process it happens with everything else don’t feel bad you don’t need to trash talk everything to prop yourself up.
shaq saying he woulda killed wilt is NOT the same thing as what we see today shaq was IN the nba and compared HIMSELF to an all time great; thats NORMAL fans NEVER used to disrespect the former greats though as they do now
Mj face 💩 competition especially at his position 🤷🏽♂️ Let me ask you a simple question ? Who was Michael Jordan best competition at his position? SG? Latrell Sprewell, Clyde the Glide, Grant Hill, Mitch Richmond, Reggie Miller, Penny Hardaway, Tim Hardaway, Joe Dumars, Kevin Johnson ? MJ was playing all these expansion teams and a bunch of drug addicted players. This is no secret. Can’t be Kobe or A.I.those were Teenagers at 1996 😂 Usually when I ask this Michael Jordan fans start the name mostly big man centers & PF 🤦🏽♂️😂 from the 90s. Shaq, Hakeem, Barkley, Ewing etc but in reality, when these big man had the 🏀 Michael Jordan never checked him, But on the offensive, and he will attack them, but on defense, he would hide from them. You see the difference. He was a one trick pony. These guys were not his problem on the defensive end. He didn’t have to worry about them mainly Scottie Pippen, and the bulls big man did the job Michael Jordan job was simply just the score of the 🏀. Because that his position shooting guard Clyde was his Best comp Clyde Played with 0 HOF players in Portland (No help at all) BUT NOW LEBRON COMPETITION SF Kevin Durant ,Kawhi Leonard , Carmelo Anthony ,Paul Pierce PG13, Giannis ( was a SF 2014-2019) Jimmy Butler, etc The list goes on and on throughout his career almost every night LeBron James had his matchup cut out for him and also the team need him to score the team needs him to get his teammates involved. The team need him to also get rebound with Michael Jordan with simply ask the score that’s it. LeBron James faced Dynasties. 5 time Champs San Antonio Spurs. Dirk a top 10 all time scorer. The Goldenstate Warriors who were a 73 Win team and added Kevin Durant and who have the greatest shooting team of All-Times that's who LeBron James had to Face. It's not even close plus he never had a Phil Jackson just rookie coaches. The competition, LeBron, James, and Michael Jordan faced at their positions it is not even close just Kevin Durant and Leonard will cook anybody MJ was facing. 🤷🏽♂️ Facts over feelings. MJ FACED 💩 competition at his position
Yeah I mean if Shaq played during the 60s he would've been a totally different player. Wilt Chamberlain by far was the most skilled and dominant big man of that era. If you watch Wilt you can see that he was supremely athletic and would've given Shaq fits if he played in the 90s & 2000s. He was 7'1 275 back then and the strongest player in the league. That's pretty much like Shaq weighing 350 in the early 2000s during his 3peat. As great as Shaq was Wilt did everything he did better, better scorer, rebounder, shot blocker, and defender. If we remove rings from the equation he really stands alone in terms of GOAT status. He has numbers that no one will ever touch long after we're all deceased.
@@MoeBeenHooping more br@n s@xual straw man nonsense ---if he was BETTER than jordan he would beaten ALL THOSE TEAMS YOU MENTIONED simple and its a team sport so you should be asking what TEAMS the bulls faced and what THEIR RECORDS WERE...the answer is the bulls defeated MORE 60 win teams in the playoffs and finals than lebrons teams have also jordan's bulls NEVER LOST when they finished with the best record; lebron's teams lost TWICE after finishing with the best reord ...66 wins in 09 and 62 wins in 2010 and he FAILED TO REACH THE FINAL BOTH TIMES and no athlete OR ped supplier like conti has ever said jordan used peds ...
@@rdogletree4543 yeah shaq was just talking... wilt was better most likely but still i can see one player saying "i woulda killed him" kobe even said that about mike so ... but FANS ??? being so disrespectful? that just ignorance
They are more skilled because they never get called for carrying, travelling, offensive charges but any defensive efforts including phantom fouls with hard floppings all over included. Fake skills glorified by unreasonable fanbase picking and choosing what they wanna tork up or what they wanna keep their eyes looking away from. They never care about true skill nor true fair plays for all.
Bill lambier was floping in the 80's Reggie Miller and Danny Ange was walking Tim Hardaway was carring and Mj got a lot of phantom calls it's not the lack of defense it's just more players with great offense skills instead of 1or2 players on a team now you have damn near 4 or 5 that can get you 20 or better.
Been saying that for damn YEARS NOW! even grandmothers would look skilled in this Era! it's all fake, players of this Era are covering their inability to play basketball with real defense and rules using a fraud platform like a masc on a very ugly woman.
It's amazing how relevant MJ is. He got an entire generation that never watched him play mad at him 25 years after he's left the sport. All because they are so tired of hearing his greatness and how their fav player don't compare... LOL I've never seen this in the history of american sports that a guy can walk away for so long and be so relevant. Bron doesn't get the hate this guy gets, cause he's getting it retroactively in the most unfair possible way, where he's not even able to go on the court anymore...
To be fair you haven't seen this because there's a clear distinction in the way we receive and deliver information between now and the 90s. The internet and social media create an avenue for a lot of people to voice their opinions and create narratives whether anyone agrees or not. That didn't exist in the transition from the 80s to 90s basketball players.
@@JB-tp6uj I’m not just referring to not having seen this in the 90s. I’ve never seen it , even today to anyone else. Whose else is getting hated that was an athlete in the 90s, as people try to change the narrative on his career in year 2024? They doing it cause they sick of hearing about MJ. Dude was too popular and big of a figure to miss out on in life. They pissed… lol
@@DynoGreen313 but people's opinions didn't carry as far as they do today. That's the point. The range and influence that an opinion can have on audiences today far exceeds what it could do in the 90s.

So skilled and athletic that they can't play 65 games. So skilled and athletic that they have team up to win something. So skilled and athletic that they have to be incentivized to compete. So skilled and athletic that they skipped the fundamentals of the game. So skilled and athletic that they don't need to play defense.
This is why the NFL will always be supreme over the NBA. They will protect their shield and not allow disrespect towards their legends regarding what era they played in.
Its so dumb to say 90's were bad come on basketball always was and will be basketball its just different styles of playing it and MJ is the greatest player there ever was and the greatest there ever will be...the end.
Best comment, I say this all the time. I’ve said this time and time again. Basketball is basketball. I’ve seen a bunch of old white men hold their own against D-1 college players in open gyms during the summer
And the guy who played 23 years in the violent NFL. Tom Shady. Not only was Tom on steroids he deflated footballs and benefitted directly from spygate. They didn't call him "Psycho Tom" for nothing. Steroids damage your brain.

This is what I tell these young heads. I had the benefit of watching MJs career in its entirety and now Lebron’s and I’ve concluded that the debate is fallacious because MJ is the superior player who accomplished more in less time. This doesn’t diminish Lebron’s greatness it just means that he should get comfortable with being number 2!
Everyone needs to hear chris broussard on this topic. He explained it perfectly, basketball is supposed to be played with all 5 players on the court, not this high pick and roll every play bs.
No it was not!! I've watched tons of full games of 90s ball and it was not pretty to watch. Players couldn't even go left and had no crossover dribble, the paint was clogged and the court had no spacing because no one could shoot, and the defense wasn't even that good like you oldheads say, OVERRATED ERA.
@@wiseandstrong3386 I've watch all the 90s basketball 80s, 2000s as well.Still better name from all the eras who hasn't missed a layup,blown a dunk,travel with the basketball, didn't get a rebound, turn the ball over ,missed a freethrows.
@@GlenroySmithSr Today's era is undoubtedly the best era of basketball, players are more and skilled and talented then they've ever been, most dudes in the 80s and 90s wouldn't even make the league today.
It was great for the era and you get that nostalgic feeling...I always thought Magic and Bird was overrated but older heads think they was art...but just a average NBA bench player is better than a average starter back then so the game is WAY better in 2024
This is crazy, we never disrespected players from previous eras ! We understood the greatness and how the game advanced, this is just example of how the generation is entitled and soft and they need to learn some respect for people who set the standards and help build the league that they’re playing in
These youngsters are disrespectful. Lebron fans are the worst! They the only ones that have to tear down legends to uplift their team hoppin guy. That alone should tell you who the goat is. MJ & KOBE > Le-Superteam
@@Ap32023Are you implying that parents and coaches are teaching kids to be “soft” when it comes to sports? Most fans that are complaining, why not take the time out of your schedule and go coach AAU, middle school or high school and make your impact in the world. If not, you come across as the old guy that is always negative and nobody wants to be around.
You guys disrespected today's game and get mad when they pull up the tape of the 90s. F you guys. We won. f the 90s we won. LeBron the GOAT. Stop acting innocent like never trash talk today games
ITS A MICRO OF A MACRO. This is a shining example of the oversensitivity, indignant attitude and effeminate nature of the current NBA players, Corp. media and fans alike.
I like it. Effeminate. And today's generations are overly self-entitled, disrespectful not just in basketball but in general. They think they know everything because of the internet and stuff.
That makes zero sense. We are just tired of the NBA media talking about the 90s like it was this untouchable era and all those players were greater. Everyone looks back at the era with rose colored glasses and people are just showing how flawed it really was.
Chris, that was a great explanation comparing 90's basketball to the modern game. If you go back and watch classic 90's games on TH-cam, you see so much more movement on the court, and so many different combinations of shots, passes, and moves. In the modern game, it's simply a three-point contest and attacking the rim. Casuals say the 90's players 'can't shoot', which is just not true. They were excellent mid-range shooters instead, and didn't take as many threes, but they were knocking down jump shots at will back then. You'd think 'attacking the rim' would be very entertaining but the rules favor the ball handler so much that it's impossible to stop dribble penetration without fouling. Modern basketball basically has two offensive players standing in both corners at all times as shooters, and they spread the floor so much that the paint is never protected. Even then, there's very few elite shot blockers or rim protectors in the league anymore, when back in the day you had true power forwards and centers 'protecting the paint.' They also eliminated 'hard fouls' as well, which so guys going to the fear have zero fear at all. I miss back-to-the-basket post-play, passes to the post, mid-range shots, guys moving without the ball, and I also miss the 90's scoring, when every basketball just kind of felt like it was a big deal, and that a 10-point lead in the first half was a massive lead. Teams can be down 15-20 points in the fourth quarter now and just hit a bunch of threes and be immediately back in the game. You lose the electricity and desperation when teams can easily surpass 130 points. At one time in the 90's and early-00s a three-point shot was actually kind of a thrilling play and so cool when marksmen like Reggie Miller, Glen Rice, and Mitch Richmond would knock down 3 or 4 threes a game. Now teams literally attempt over 50 threes a game, and it's guys like Steph curry and James Harden are allowed to take 15 threes a game sometimes. Three-pointers and free throws aren't entertaining basketball.
@@damianpresha9833 The hard truth is Jordan fans don't have respect for lebron fans. Jordan fans can't get with the softness and feminine nature of lebron fans. Take it from me as a Jordan fan.
No they're right, people are starting to actually watch full games of 80s and 90s basketball and it's clearly an inferior product compared to modern day basketball just deal with it it's the truth. Players were far less skilled in the 80s and 90s and that's a fact if you actually sit down and watch a full game from that time. The game has evolved and Players are better and more skilled at the game of basketball then they've ever been.
@@wiseandstrong3386"just deal with it its the truth" classic adolescent sentence... players are more skilled today nobody is debating that like what? Gd it's 30-40 years later? But the product is clearly not as good I mean that's not even a debate? the stars play 3/5ths the games and when the play spend half the games complaining about calls? Stop it. That reasoning is why Jordan and most goats find the goat debate foolish... the game progresses its about your era.
@@zumptt Then why do dudes in their 40s and 50s say dumb things like "Lebron wouldn't survive in the 90s"!!!! Which is just an absolute joke to anyone with any basketball knowledge and who actually watches full games from then and now knows Lebron would shut the league down in the 90s, or they say "defense was better in the 90s no one plays defense in the modern NBA!!!".When after watching a few games the defense back then was not better whatsoever the defense of the 90s was so overrated it made me laugh watching it. Scoring is so much higher now because guys are better at putting the ball in the basket now then they were then it's that simple This trend is just pushback against these false narratives from the younger generation. And how is the product better then? Have you actually sat down and watched a full 90s game? I've watched many Bulls games from the 90s and all Jordan did was complain to the refs, in fact he was known to be coddled by the refs by his contemporaries. Modern basketball is prettier to watch, the game now has better spacing and shooting, the players are far more skilled and the games are funner to watch because of that, the skill level is so much higher.
The craziest statistical gap between the 90s and the current era, to me, is the viewership numbers. More people watched and talked about the NBA in the 90s and by quite a lot. It's just not as compelling to watch a game anymore-especially in the regular season. I think the 3-ball revolution was smart and very successful for some teams, but when every team in the league is chasing that same ideology, the game becomes a lackluster product on the court and for the fans.
EXACTLY! It ain't hard to go back and watch. It's just hard to watch. And I grew up in the 80s and 90s! Folks at like watching Charles Oakley and Anthony Mason play was must see TV
@@sholovesholove4620 but look at who u chose to name they jus wasn’t the 2 best either what about the kemps and shaqs and Hakeem u kno those were 90s players to instead of naming the mid 90s players how about naming the flashy all time great 90s players u could’ve name eweng instead of the 2 role players on the knicks that’s like saying I dnt like watching grant Williams or any Detroit big men of this era instead of naming the Gianni’s and Jokic 😂😂😂😂😂
Rob is absolutely right! I've been saying this for over a year. This tearing down only is happening in NBA basketball. All the other sports NFL, FIFA, Boxing, UFC, Tennis, MLB, NHL, PGA, etc. They all pay homage to those before them, only the NBA since LeBron joined has this happened. Shaq comment is perfect! He thought this, but he never said it to be disrespectful.
It’s Bronsexuals, they’re not tearing down Kareem or bird or magic, it’s MJ because he dominated the 90s and bronsexuals want to discredit that so they can prop up Lebron as the goat, I’m surprised ppl not framing it that way because that’s all it is
@weinaracewarandslaverystar3408 No, it's biased oxymoron like Rob who's doing exactly what he's excusing other of doing and that is tearing down one generation to big up another.
Rob is a biased oxymoron. He is doing exactly what he excuses other people of doing. He literally discredits another one generation just to big the other.
I'm a 80s baby and what I think the push back is pretty much is a lot of fans of the 80s and 90s NBA are judging players in this generation negatively because of 50 percent of nostalgia and 50 percent that they don't like that athletes speak their mind , aren't company yes men, and negotiate their contracts to their advantage.
Lol😂 it’s the opposite It’s Mj fans who’s started it. I’m a Bron fan & I don’t even hate Mj, I even bought jordan sportswear a lot more & I only bought Bron once.
Because MJ himself had respect for the past era's, and so does his fans. Also, Kareem in his prime would've schooled Shaq, just like Hakeem did. No disrespect to the Big Fella.
@@ThePopbanks007definitely did not. I said his point was ridiculous. The part about Wilt was really unrelated but I wanted to add that in because it's true in my opinion. I heard his point and I think it's ridiculous.
Offensive fouls in Wilt era, are what Shaq, & Lebron do on a regular. Shaq’s a casual that never watched the full games. Shaq would foul out trying that stuff in Wilt’s era. Anyone who’s watched those games, know that. There are clips on TH-cam showing those things were whistled for illegal fouls.
Shiidd Shaq tripping! He couldn’t have stopped the sky hook, Wilt was a big dude with grown man weight on him. He wasn’t just going to do what he wanted.
That's not true at all. I'm old enough to have lived through a time when the players and fans of the 70s and 80s were not on board with elevating Jordan. Many eventually came on board reluctantly, but some still don't care for Jordan to this day.
Jordan fans literally diminish and disrespect players all the time, what are you talking about, I believe he's the goat but if someone has Lebron, Kobe, Kareem, or whoever I don't get upset but a lot of these dudes be in their feelings when someone has a different option. I don't know why you posted this even a blind man knows thats cap 🧢😂
@@commonsense9908 lol, yeah he's an example. Ditto for Clyde Drexler. But even some guys before them still have players like Dr. J, Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem, or Bill Russell as their GOATs. And Jordan fans would tear those guys down to elevate him back in the day.

We didn't disrespect the prior generations even tho I knew my generation(late 80s) was more exciting to watch. I think the NBA has passed its peak which was the end of Golden States first 3 chips 2018
Let me let you in on a secret! If you have 3 different people calling you out about using PED’s, you’re allowed to sue them for defamation and ruining his character. Have you notice, considering LeBalco is the biggest diva in the league and interjects anytime anyone says anything about him. Well why hasn’t he said anything? Or why hasn’t he threatened to sue? Because they can prove it!! Or start an investigation and he doesn’t need eyes on this stuff!!
He’s been in the league 21 years and never tested positive that’s why. Until he comes up with a positive test you can’t falsely accuse someone. How would you like saying you committed a crime with no proof. The hate is strong.
The fact that media are scared to talk about the obsession of LJ to become the GOAT and his effort to discredit everyone on his way is beyond and above. Too much censorship
That's all the way around, mj fans are obsessed of the goat debate they are brainwashing the people and discrediting the lebron on his greatness we get it mj played in the weaker era and lesser talent thats why he's great in the 90s.
No he was not😂😂😂 highlights don't tell you the full story you have to actually watch a full game, all the highlights show is him finishing with his left hand from time to time but not actually dribbling with his left hand. People actually went back and watched full games and the dude struggled to dribble or attack the defense with his left hand it was bad haha I'm glad y'all oldheads overrated era is getting exposed.
@@wiseandstrong3386 Not an old head. You couldn't be more wrong. Only thing that's being exposed is how stupid and ignorant basketball fans are. You think you're an expert because you watched some TikToks of someone as equally as clueless as you critiquing every detail of Jordan in a game. Hate to break it to you, but anyone can do that with any player in the history of basketball. I could watch a game and critique every action of the best players in the league today and I still see some horrible turnovers, missed shots, airballs, flops, bad defense, etc. ... That's the game. It's not perfect and no player is perfect. Doesn't matter who it is, your favorite player has some lowlights and horrible moments as well that would lead an ignorant/clueless person to believe they aren't skilled, or they can't pass, or they can't defend, or they have no left hand, or something along those lines. You and other basketball fans need to be better.
@@Bob-te3le He struggled dribbling and attacking with his left hand it's a fact and if you sat down and actually watched a full Jordan game you would quickly realize that. Even his contemporaries said the game plan against him was to make him go left, look it up Isaiah Thomas and Kenny Smith both say it in interviews here on TH-cam, Kenny even said "he had no handle".
you mean west ? asian countries are sht . how about balkans and africa ? the world doesnt revolve in us of a just saying. also most nba players back then cant dribble lmaooo
For me basketball in the 90s was awesome and 80s for that matter. The great players played almost every night and the playoffs. Didn’t get hurt as much and grew the game. The Dream Team was a rock and roll show for a reason
cause the NBA lowered the Rims in 2005 - til now. There is no set standard on the rims now. Here in the last few weeks they raised the rims back to 10 but loosened them some though. The dunks look better on real legit 10 foot rims.
"But I would say that scoring is easier in the NBA just because of the different rules, the amount of space, the time, so that's why I said it's easier to score in the NBA." “Everybody says my game looks easy. It’s not easy. Trust me," said Doncic. "But when I said that [about the NBA] many people didn't agree with me. I think now they are starting to agree more and more, but I always say it's because of the rules. The three seconds in the paint in defense is huge, I don't think people realize how huge that is. Because when I'm iso-ing, I watch the defender in the paint because he's got to go out at some point. When he's going out, I try to attack." - Luka Doncic
They hate Michael Jordan, but consistently buy his shoes to the point that they sell out every release. Not just old heads buying his shoes. 🤣. I think that speaks to this generations non sensical thought process 😂
Buying Jordan’s at this point has nothing to do with him personally. They’re some of the best looking shoes out here to the point where women and kids who never saw him play or could care less about him still wear the shoes. S/o to Nike for making a great shoe because I promise you if Jordan’s were made by under armor, they wouldn’t hit the same
The 2020s era of the entitled, these players today couldn’t bang down in the paint , they took away a lot of the rules for todays players , they travel everywhere now , that to me don’t tell me the ball handling is better it tells me they had to change the rules so they can handle the ball better , lazy no defense but of course the league wants it that way so the players are use to playing that way so many 3s put up it’s a very boring game now the lack of defense killed the game
Defense from the 90's = mma it's not basketball it's less skilled players trying to have money for their drugs addiction and only they know and only they could do is to punch other players. This is not basketball, basketball is sport of skills and fundamentals not martial arts
It's funny. Old heads like Rob don't like the disrespect. Lol. They threw first punch saying all their lies, that that Era was just so tough and skilled when they were lying. We done! With the 90s bruh!
It’s just as much if not more the opposite direction. Because people can’t handle that some of the best players of all time still retired a decade or more ago. Not all, but some of the best. Guys like Luka said it’s easier to score in the nba than Europe. Defense is softer now. That’s what gets trashed and downgraded because it’s true. People aren’t trashing the players themselves individually as much the defense and rule easing all around. For players like Luka and Embid they had their scoring averages increase 3-4 points each between the 2021-22 and the 2022-23 seasons. It’s not a coincidence; they didn’t both simultaneously become instantly much better scorers that summer. No, the NBA continued to soften on defense, the refs called the game to favor offense, etc. to allow them to look even better as offensive players and for players like Lebron to more easily maintain their stat lines from ten years ago. It’s bad marketing for the nba when most people know the best player ever retired over 2 decades ago, so they gotta level the playing field by jacking up offense beyond belief over defense, barely calling travels, etc.
And guys play less games now for more money better tech more injuries than ever but better athletically oxymoron and when they get a bruise shut it down the players of the 90's plyed with a different type of grit grind no complaining
Who is being downgraded and where should they be? LeBron is nearly universally recognized as a top 3 player all-time with the majority saying he's #2. Steph is nearly universally recognized as a fringe top 10 player all-time. KD is widely regarded as a top 15ish player all-time. People are already putting Giannis and Jokic in the top 20 convo. Westbrook, Harden, AD, Dame, CP3, and Kawhi were all named Top 75 players all-time. Most people acknowledge Luka will be an all-time great, once his accolades start to catch his talent. Like, who's not getting their flowers??? Jayson Tatum?😅 I legitimately get confused when people say this.
if 90s was so basic in skills, why can nobody still do what Jordan was doing? I still dont see anyone with the same or even close elevation+airtime+acrobatics+power, even someone like Kemp, no one dunks like him in today's league....no one.
I mean 90s players and media members have spent the last 20 years disrespecting this era and this era players, so I think some pushback upon review of the actual games is warrented.
I’ll let you in on a secret! Players in this era wouldn’t be making anything and the sport would be on lifeline if it wasn’t for the 80’s & 90’s. So these dorks should handle the criticism! Because the product has become garbage! You’d think with players who have way more athleticism you’d see a better product!
@@HZB_33 What is trashing? Backing your era? Reality is every era does it Wilt did it to Jordan in 97. This cycle been going on for a long time. It ain't new
Using that shooting percentage is wild....the fact that its the same but so many different people shoot now and they shoot way more 3s now means the shooting is better
Unless defense is same, spacing is same, we can’t say shooting is better. That’s common sense. You can not close out on a shooter, or guard a shooter as closely, or off ball player as physically. You also can travel more, push off more, illegal screen more, carry more. It’s just common sense.
@@honorfirst7506defense is harder cuza zone defense... shooting is better cuza obvious reasons... u never not close out on shooters in dis era an not get cook'd... they barely contested by jumpin inda 90s... stop da cap
He just described 5 man basketball as being able to pass in the post and set a screen and said today’s players can’t do that. My God he doesn’t know basketball.
Two segments on it really shows they are genuinely threatened by people actually pulling up the tape rather than just allowing them to blindly agree with each other😂
threatened by what? in another 10 years the NBA will still be trying to find the next jordan. dominate players of other sports are called the jordan of their sport.

You can look at their channel, they do this with all "guest segments". They have one video where they ask the guest's their opinion and a 2nd where they discuss it among themselves. It's so they don't interrupt their guest and whatever they are promoting with their own talking points. Really not that deep and pretty standard in radio, podcasts, and TV interview shows.
Mike don’t need protection he a billionaire what have those ppl on tik tok done with their lives 😂 what have mj fans who defend all day done with their lives NOTHING take your own lives seriously
The sheer projection in this comment is unreal. MFs came up with a whole trending hashtag to try to hate on MJ and lift up a certain guy. Man cut it out 🤣🤣🤣
There doesn’t need to be a “we done with the modern era” because sports fans already told you they done😂 We seeing some of the lowest ratings for NBA broadcasts ever! Nobody has had anything good to say about the NBA in years😂😂😂
Being a older guy myself they need to just admit they can't let go of their childhood heros lol. To refuse to admit the game has evolved is crazy and clearly bias. I was a Bruce Lee fan boy, but to say he could beat up the average mma fighter of today would be crazy. Jordan was amazing, but he also didn't have anyone that could match his athletic ability and he was amazing in the mid range. But they need to stop pretending like Jordan played tough teams and got beat up all the time. He's the reason superstar calls became a thing and you weren't allowed to touch him since he was the face of the nba. Crazy how people forget that to protect Jordan's toughness lol. They change the bar of what makes someone the best to make sure Jordan stays number 1 in everyone's eyes. They kill LeBron if he doesn't make the finals, or playoffs, and make it seem like Jordan one the finals and made it there every season lol. Jordan would hate today's media if he played lol
Yall complained about the game FOR YEARS. Y’all told young people go watch film. They watched film, wasn’t impressed, and now WE DONE WIT THE 90s. Go cry yourself to sleep
Isnt it IRONIC that MJ was able to score all those pt, win many awards, championships, less all star help ALL with "no left hand" Luka, Trae, Curry, Joker, Markannen, Sabonis avg 26" vertical and yet are some of the best scorers and all-around guys in the league lmfao

Acting like they’re just taking a bunch of different bad clips from other games is funny, because the original “We’re done with the 90s” video was a reaction the the entire first quarter of a finals game😂
@@oooi2848 stop being dense. It’s very clear when you sit down and watch a lot of Jordan’s Comp just weren’t that good. The stars can somewhat be compared through eras but the average players of today are substantially better than the average players from the 80-90s. If you put Durant, Lebron, Curry, Kyire in a 7 game series to be guarded by a 38 year old Jeff hornesek with the illegal defense rule in play they would all average 50 while all playing the game very differently.
@@devinsmart1547 don't be an ignoramus. Jordan played against a ton of good comp, cut it out. Picking the oldest person u can find and saying that is who the stars of today would cook is disingenuous. Same stars that struggle with 50 year old PJ Tucker. Cut it out dude. How many players that played in the 90s into the 2000s have said Jordan would be averaging 40+ today based on the lax defensive rules? There's a reason the NBA is actually talking about changing defensive rules. When u can carry the ball (Poole, Morant, and everyone else) and can take a gather step and take 2.5 more steps after that u can essentially do whatever u want.
@@devinsmart1547 players today are more skilled, if that's what you're saying...as they should be, every generation learns from past generations and improves. But that doesn't necessarily make todays players better than 90s players. You have to add context if you wanna compare eras. The game back then was very different, so the players then adjusted to how the game was being played at that time. If you took a past great player and made him play "now" like he was playing in the past, in most cases the said player would most likely appear less skilled....Or not as good. But if said player was to grow up in the modern era, his game would most likely have developed more towards what is needed today. Just like if you were to take Kyrie from "now" and drop him in a past era, he would most likely appear out of this world good....but if you dropped Kyrie in that era, in the sense that he was born then and played through that era from his childhood through being a pro, his game would've been adjusted to that era, and most likely would've "appeared" just as bad as past players. They key word I used was "appeared", because that's what it is. Most players from past eras, aside from the greats, appear bad because the game was different. Have you watched Magic dribble? He looks funky as hell...but again, keep in mind that back then, any dribble that didn't have your hand completely on top of the ball was considered a carry. Almost any move used today by skilled players to generate their offense, back in the day it would've been called for some kind of violation. Harden? Back in the 80s or early 90s, would never be able to get away with his step back shots or tangle fouls... So while I do agree that players today are more skilled "again, as they should be", that doesn't translate necessarily to modern players/eras being greater than past players/eras. Past players adjusted their game to what was needed and how the game was played then, same with today.
PG: Penny SG: Michael SF: Grant Hill PF: Shaun Kemp C: Hakeem Bench: Shaq Chuck GP Pippen Reggie Miller David Robinson. what current team beating that from this era ???
Tough but ima try, 00's edition PG. Jason Kid SG. Kobe SF. LeBron PF. Tim Duncan C. Shaq Bench: Tmac, Paul Peirce, KG, D Wade, Cp3, Pau Gasol. Lmk what you think, definitely be a great 7 game series 👌
The first thing you noticed in watching 90s basketball is they are. not carrying the basketball
this really shouldnt be a factor in anything
Not a factor in anything also check the AI cross on MJ. He didnt carry there?
No flopping or traveling makes a better Argument. They all carry the ball. Hell they went after a.i. and Stephan Marbury alot on carrying.
Another history revisionist here: bet you want the hand check to come back too right?
I’m a basketball official and I call carry
"The plumber era vs. high skilled era." Guess what? The plumbers are dominating now, Joker and Luka.
That's what kills their more athletic argument. They say guys like Bird sucked when you have two of the least athletic guys dominating today's nba
Joker and Luka aren't plumbers. If you dropped them into the 90s they would be accused of sorcery.
@@MikeBNumba6 draymond greene has more 3s than bird.
A Plummer is mason plumblee not Jokic man 😭

No disrespect, but part of the disrespect of the past comes from the constant debates about the GOAT created by sports media. If sports media personalities don’t think they have a role in this they are either in denial or delusional.
they have to keep comparing lebron to mj because nobody is watching anymore. same reason they wont mention the ped use
Nah. Not delusional. Not “delusional.” /
Luka and Jokic are dominating this so called more athletic era
Curry and Trae Young aren't athletic at all and killing, Klay Thompson, Draymond Green, KAT
Riight!
Ball don’t lie…..truest statement ever said !
This era is more skilled and athletic. Joker and Luka just highlight that. We have more bigs and wings who can do more in todays nba.
They are definitely practicing more 3s now, but "more skilled"?
Do we feel like the guys doing tricks in the Rucker were "more skilled" than Jason Kidd?
Are receivers more skilled than running backs?
Do we feel like today's musicians are more skilled than musicians in the 90s too?
Are the movie stars more beautiful, or does it just come down to taste?
How can a generation that don't play outside and grew up with a phone in their hands be more athletic than the 90s
That’s weird because athletic records are always being broken. It’s an inevitable process it happens with everything else don’t feel bad you don’t need to trash talk everything to prop yourself up.
It’s a troll right?
shaq saying he woulda killed wilt is NOT the same thing as what we see today

Yeah I mean if Shaq played during the 60s he would've been a totally different player. Wilt Chamberlain by far was the most skilled and dominant big man of that era. If you watch Wilt you can see that he was supremely athletic and would've given Shaq fits if he played in the 90s & 2000s. He was 7'1 275 back then and the strongest player in the league. That's pretty much like Shaq weighing 350 in the early 2000s during his 3peat. As great as Shaq was Wilt did everything he did better, better scorer, rebounder, shot blocker, and defender. If we remove rings from the equation he really stands alone in terms of GOAT status. He has numbers that no one will ever touch long after we're all deceased.

Right
This is what I tell these young heads. I had the benefit of watching MJs career in its entirety and now Lebron’s and I’ve concluded that the debate is fallacious because MJ is the superior player who accomplished more in less time. This doesn’t diminish Lebron’s greatness it just means that he should get comfortable with being number 2!

90s basketball were way more better beautiful thing to watch 5 on 5 fundamental skills .
No it was not!! I've watched tons of full games of 90s ball and it was not pretty to watch. Players couldn't even go left and had no crossover dribble, the paint was clogged and the court had no spacing because no one could shoot, and the defense wasn't even that good like you oldheads say, OVERRATED ERA.

@@GlenroySmithSr Today's era is undoubtedly the best era of basketball, players are more and skilled and talented then they've ever been, most dudes in the 80s and 90s wouldn't even make the league today.
It was great for the era and you get that nostalgic feeling...I always thought Magic and Bird was overrated but older heads think they was art...but just a average NBA bench player is better than a average starter back then so the game is WAY better in 2024
I think u need to go watch again.
This is crazy, we never disrespected players from previous eras ! We understood the greatness and how the game advanced, this is just example of how the generation is entitled and soft and they need to learn some respect for people who set the standards and help build the league that they’re playing in

Explain?
100%. Truth!
I like it. Effeminate. And today's generations are overly self-entitled, disrespectful not just in basketball but in general. They think they know everything because of the internet and stuff.
That makes zero sense. We are just tired of the NBA media talking about the 90s like it was this untouchable era and all those players were greater. Everyone looks back at the era with rose colored glasses and people are just showing how flawed it really was.
Chris, that was a great explanation comparing 90's basketball to the modern game. If you go back and watch classic 90's games on TH-cam, you see so much more movement on the court, and so many different combinations of shots, passes, and moves. In the modern game, it's simply a three-point contest and attacking the rim. Casuals say the 90's players 'can't shoot', which is just not true. They were excellent mid-range shooters instead, and didn't take as many threes, but they were knocking down jump shots at will back then.
You'd think 'attacking the rim' would be very entertaining but the rules favor the ball handler so much that it's impossible to stop dribble penetration without fouling. Modern basketball basically has two offensive players standing in both corners at all times as shooters, and they spread the floor so much that the paint is never protected. Even then, there's very few elite shot blockers or rim protectors in the league anymore, when back in the day you had true power forwards and centers 'protecting the paint.' They also eliminated 'hard fouls' as well, which so guys going to the fear have zero fear at all.
I miss back-to-the-basket post-play, passes to the post, mid-range shots, guys moving without the ball, and I also miss the 90's scoring, when every basketball just kind of felt like it was a big deal, and that a 10-point lead in the first half was a massive lead. Teams can be down 15-20 points in the fourth quarter now and just hit a bunch of threes and be immediately back in the game. You lose the electricity and desperation when teams can easily surpass 130 points. At one time in the 90's and early-00s a three-point shot was actually kind of a thrilling play and so cool when marksmen like Reggie Miller, Glen Rice, and Mitch Richmond would knock down 3 or 4 threes a game. Now teams literally attempt over 50 threes a game, and it's guys like Steph curry and James Harden are allowed to take 15 threes a game sometimes. Three-pointers and free throws aren't entertaining basketball.

No they're right, people are starting to actually watch full games of 80s and 90s basketball and it's clearly an inferior product compared to modern day basketball just deal with it it's the truth.
Players were far less skilled in the 80s and 90s and that's a fact if you actually sit down and watch a full game from that time. The game has evolved and Players are better and more skilled at the game of basketball then they've ever been.

@@zumptt Then why do dudes in their 40s and 50s say dumb things like "Lebron wouldn't survive in the 90s"!!!! Which is just an absolute joke to anyone with any basketball knowledge and who actually watches full games from then and now knows Lebron would shut the league down in the 90s, or they say "defense was better in the 90s no one plays defense in the modern NBA!!!".When after watching a few games the defense back then was not better whatsoever the defense of the 90s was so overrated it made me laugh watching it. Scoring is so much higher now because guys are better at putting the ball in the basket now then they were then it's that simple
This trend is just pushback against these false narratives from the younger generation.
And how is the product better then? Have you actually sat down and watched a full 90s game? I've watched many Bulls games from the 90s and all Jordan did was complain to the refs, in fact he was known to be coddled by the refs by his contemporaries. Modern basketball is prettier to watch, the game now has better spacing and shooting, the players are far more skilled and the games are funner to watch because of that, the skill level is so much higher.
@@zumpttall the players are better and more skilled but that doesn’t mean they are as good. Are you hearing yourself?
The craziest statistical gap between the 90s and the current era, to me, is the viewership numbers. More people watched and talked about the NBA in the 90s and by quite a lot. It's just not as compelling to watch a game anymore-especially in the regular season.
I think the 3-ball revolution was smart and very successful for some teams, but when every team in the league is chasing that same ideology, the game becomes a lackluster product on the court and for the fans.
Y’all do know they have full games of the 90s online. 😅

Rob is absolutely right! I've been saying this for over a year. This tearing down only is happening in NBA basketball. All the other sports NFL, FIFA, Boxing, UFC, Tennis, MLB, NHL, PGA, etc. They all pay homage to those before them, only the NBA since LeBron joined has this happened. Shaq comment is perfect! He thought this, but he never said it to be disrespectful.
It’s Bronsexuals, they’re not tearing down Kareem or bird or magic, it’s MJ because he dominated the 90s and bronsexuals want to discredit that so they can prop up Lebron as the goat, I’m surprised ppl not framing it that way because that’s all it is
@weinaracewarandslaverystar3408 No, it's biased oxymoron like Rob who's doing exactly what he's excusing other of doing and that is tearing down one generation to big up another.
Rob is a biased oxymoron. He is doing exactly what he excuses other people of doing. He literally discredits another one generation just to big the other.
What’s “cute” is Shaq thinking he’d “destroy” Wilt.
In my life of 42 years, i had never seen as many wide open, set shots, as i do now. The nba is looking a lot like college women's game.
I'm a 80s baby and what I think the push back is pretty much is a lot of fans of the 80s and 90s NBA are judging players in this generation negatively because of 50 percent of nostalgia and 50 percent that they don't like that athletes speak their mind , aren't company yes men, and negotiate their contracts to their advantage.

Offensive fouls in Wilt era, are what Shaq, & Lebron do on a regular. Shaq’s a casual that never watched the full games. Shaq would foul out trying that stuff in Wilt’s era. Anyone who’s watched those games, know that. There are clips on TH-cam showing those things were whistled for illegal fouls.

This isnt a Jordan Lebron thing.. its about the old head media guys allways downgrading todays players and up grading the 90s
It’s just as much if not more the opposite direction. Because people can’t handle that some of the best players of all time still retired a decade or more ago. Not all, but some of the best. Guys like Luka said it’s easier to score in the nba than Europe. Defense is softer now. That’s what gets trashed and downgraded because it’s true. People aren’t trashing the players themselves individually as much the defense and rule easing all around.
For players like Luka and Embid they had their scoring averages increase 3-4 points each between the 2021-22 and the 2022-23 seasons. It’s not a coincidence; they didn’t both simultaneously become instantly much better scorers that summer.
No, the NBA continued to soften on defense, the refs called the game to favor offense, etc. to allow them to look even better as offensive players and for players like Lebron to more easily maintain their stat lines from ten years ago.
It’s bad marketing for the nba when most people know the best player ever retired over 2 decades ago, so they gotta level the playing field by jacking up offense beyond belief over defense, barely calling travels, etc.
And guys play less games now for more money better tech more injuries than ever but better athletically oxymoron and when they get a bruise shut it down the players of the 90's plyed with a different type of grit grind no complaining
Agree!!!!
Who is being downgraded and where should they be?
LeBron is nearly universally recognized as a top 3 player all-time with the majority saying he's #2. Steph is nearly universally recognized as a fringe top 10 player all-time. KD is widely regarded as a top 15ish player all-time. People are already putting Giannis and Jokic in the top 20 convo. Westbrook, Harden, AD, Dame, CP3, and Kawhi were all named Top 75 players all-time. Most people acknowledge Luka will be an all-time great, once his accolades start to catch his talent.

I’ll let you in on a secret! Players in this era wouldn’t be making anything and the sport would be on lifeline if it wasn’t for the 80’s & 90’s. So these dorks should handle the criticism! Because the product has become garbage! You’d think with players who have way more athleticism you’d see a better product!
@HZB_33 Why are you talking as if its players responding its fans 😂
@@GOATZELWARDBANDWAGON. brother! Where you been? There’s tons of podcast where players are trashing previous eras! Cmon bro
@@HZB_33 What is trashing? Backing your era? Reality is every era does it Wilt did it to Jordan in 97. This cycle been going on for a long time. It ain't new
@@GOATZELWARDBANDWAGON. Nah, the disrespect today is worse than ever.
Using that shooting percentage is wild....the fact that its the same but so many different people shoot now and they shoot way more 3s now means the shooting is better
and it's way more possessions in todays game, and it's different shot clock rules that speed up the game even more
Unless defense is same, spacing is same, we can’t say shooting is better. That’s common sense. You can not close out on a shooter, or guard a shooter as closely, or off ball player as physically. You also can travel more, push off more, illegal screen more, carry more. It’s just common sense.
@@honorfirst7506defense is harder cuza zone defense... shooting is better cuza obvious reasons... u never not close out on shooters in dis era an not get cook'd... they barely contested by jumpin inda 90s... stop da cap
@@honorfirst7506Just watch the 90s games, players only shot the 3 if they were wide open so they took much easier shots than are taken now
Exactly
The fact that 90s NBA basketball has better ratings than today's NBA speaks louder than a bunch of tik tok videos from kids
Ya had 4 channels 😂
@@mariojimenez227 Yup, and no social media to promote it, and still got higher ratings 🤣🤣🤣
He just described 5 man basketball as being able to pass in the post and set a screen and said today’s players can’t do that. My God he doesn’t know basketball.
Two segments on it really shows they are genuinely threatened by people actually pulling up the tape rather than just allowing them to blindly agree with each other😂
threatened by what? in another 10 years the NBA will still be trying to find the next jordan. dominate players of other sports are called the jordan of their sport.
Mj face 💩 competition especially at his position 🤷🏽♂️
Let me ask you a simple question ? Who was Michael Jordan best competition at his position? SG? Latrell Sprewell, Clyde the Glide, Grant Hill, Mitch Richmond, Reggie Miller, Penny Hardaway, Tim Hardaway, Joe Dumars, Kevin Johnson ? MJ was playing all these expansion teams and a bunch of drug addicted players. This is no secret.
Can’t be Kobe or A.I.those were Teenagers at 1996 😂
Usually when I ask this Michael Jordan fans start the name mostly big man centers & PF 🤦🏽♂️😂 from the 90s. Shaq, Hakeem, Barkley, Ewing etc but in reality, when these big man had the 🏀 Michael Jordan never checked him, But on the offensive, and he will attack them, but on defense, he would hide from them. You see the difference. He was a one trick pony. These guys were not his problem on the defensive end. He didn’t have to worry about them mainly Scottie Pippen, and the bulls big man did the job Michael Jordan job was simply just the score of the 🏀. Because that his position shooting guard Clyde was his Best comp Clyde Played with 0 HOF players in Portland (No help at all)
BUT NOW LEBRON COMPETITION SF
Kevin Durant ,Kawhi Leonard , Carmelo Anthony ,Paul Pierce PG13,
Giannis ( was a SF 2014-2019)
Jimmy Butler, etc The list goes on and on throughout his career almost every night LeBron James had his matchup cut out for him and also the team need him to score the team needs him to get his teammates involved. The team need him to also get rebound with Michael Jordan with simply ask the score that’s it. LeBron James faced Dynasties. 5 time Champs San Antonio Spurs. Dirk a top 10 all time scorer. The Goldenstate Warriors who were a 73 Win team and added Kevin Durant and who have the greatest shooting team of All-Times that's who LeBron James had to Face. It's not even close plus he never had a Phil Jackson just rookie coaches.

You can look at their channel, they do this with all "guest segments". They have one video where they ask the guest's their opinion and a 2nd where they discuss it among themselves.
It's so they don't interrupt their guest and whatever they are promoting with their own talking points. Really not that deep and pretty standard in radio, podcasts, and TV interview shows.
@@MoeBeenHoopingAll the guys you mentioned as Brons competition played ZERO defense except Jimmy and Kawhi. Melo??? 😂 Really???
Anyone who says Jordan has no left hand has not watched him play at all.

Mike don’t need protection he a billionaire what have those ppl on tik tok done with their lives 😂 what have mj fans who defend all day done with their lives NOTHING take your own lives seriously
The sheer projection in this comment is unreal. MFs came up with a whole trending hashtag to try to hate on MJ and lift up a certain guy. Man cut it out 🤣🤣🤣
"Ball handling is better since you can carry", WTF?. Just think how good QB protection will be when they let you hold.
Y’all tear down lebron everyday but we can’t criticize Jordan lmaoo mj fans sensitive asf
There doesn’t need to be a “we done with the modern era” because sports fans already told you they done😂 We seeing some of the lowest ratings for NBA broadcasts ever! Nobody has had anything good to say about the NBA in years😂😂😂
Are you all that stupid, i didn't miss 1 game of the nba and i didn't turn my tv on in a 2 months, i mean you are just acting stupid or i don't know
Being a older guy myself they need to just admit they can't let go of their childhood heros lol. To refuse to admit the game has evolved is crazy and clearly bias. I was a Bruce Lee fan boy, but to say he could beat up the average mma fighter of today would be crazy. Jordan was amazing, but he also didn't have anyone that could match his athletic ability and he was amazing in the mid range. But they need to stop pretending like Jordan played tough teams and got beat up all the time. He's the reason superstar calls became a thing and you weren't allowed to touch him since he was the face of the nba. Crazy how people forget that to protect Jordan's toughness lol. They change the bar of what makes someone the best to make sure Jordan stays number 1 in everyone's eyes. They kill LeBron if he doesn't make the finals, or playoffs, and make it seem like Jordan one the finals and made it there every season lol. Jordan would hate today's media if he played lol
Bingo- MJ's biggest advantage was his athleticism and today he wouldnt have that same advantage. It is that simple.
against the knicks baseline spun out the double team left handed and slammed it right!
That’s still the best play in nba history lol
Yall complained about the game FOR YEARS.
Y’all told young people go watch film.
They watched film, wasn’t impressed, and now WE DONE WIT THE 90s. Go cry yourself to sleep
Isnt it IRONIC that MJ was able to score all those pt, win many awards, championships, less all star help ALL with "no left hand"
Luka, Trae, Curry, Joker, Markannen, Sabonis avg 26" vertical and yet are some of the best scorers and all-around guys in the league lmfao
Old people taking the joke way too serious
Because they were kids before like I’m sure this generation is going to get old they going to protect the same way

I'm just waiting on these guys to address Lebron being accused of PEDs lol. Like why is mainstream media afraid to address the Roid God

Exactly, they are trying their best to ignore it LOL
Acting like they’re just taking a bunch of different bad clips from other games is funny, because the original “We’re done with the 90s” video was a reaction the the entire first quarter of a finals game😂
Same can be done for multiple finals games in the 2000s but we r done with the 2000s folks ain't got time to waste
@@oooi2848 stop being dense. It’s very clear when you sit down and watch a lot of Jordan’s Comp just weren’t that good. The stars can somewhat be compared through eras but the average players of today are substantially better than the average players from the 80-90s. If you put Durant, Lebron, Curry, Kyire in a 7 game series to be guarded by a 38 year old Jeff hornesek with the illegal defense rule in play they would all average 50 while all playing the game very differently.
@@devinsmart1547 don't be an ignoramus. Jordan played against a ton of good comp, cut it out. Picking the oldest person u can find and saying that is who the stars of today would cook is disingenuous. Same stars that struggle with 50 year old PJ Tucker. Cut it out dude. How many players that played in the 90s into the 2000s have said Jordan would be averaging 40+ today based on the lax defensive rules? There's a reason the NBA is actually talking about changing defensive rules. When u can carry the ball (Poole, Morant, and everyone else) and can take a gather step and take 2.5 more steps after that u can essentially do whatever u want.
@@devinsmart1547 players today are more skilled, if that's what you're saying...as they should be, every generation learns from past generations and improves. But that doesn't necessarily make todays players better than 90s players. You have to add context if you wanna compare eras. The game back then was very different, so the players then adjusted to how the game was being played at that time. If you took a past great player and made him play "now" like he was playing in the past, in most cases the said player would most likely appear less skilled....Or not as good. But if said player was to grow up in the modern era, his game would most likely have developed more towards what is needed today.
Just like if you were to take Kyrie from "now" and drop him in a past era, he would most likely appear out of this world good....but if you dropped Kyrie in that era, in the sense that he was born then and played through that era from his childhood through being a pro, his game would've been adjusted to that era, and most likely would've "appeared" just as bad as past players.
They key word I used was "appeared", because that's what it is. Most players from past eras, aside from the greats, appear bad because the game was different. Have you watched Magic dribble? He looks funky as hell...but again, keep in mind that back then, any dribble that didn't have your hand completely on top of the ball was considered a carry. Almost any move used today by skilled players to generate their offense, back in the day it would've been called for some kind of violation. Harden? Back in the 80s or early 90s, would never be able to get away with his step back shots or tangle fouls...
So while I do agree that players today are more skilled "again, as they should be", that doesn't translate necessarily to modern players/eras being greater than past players/eras. Past players adjusted their game to what was needed and how the game was played then, same with today.
@@xxtopgunxx8764 ain’t nobody reading all the that. Glad we agree players are better today.
