      It was a hell of a lot more competitive that's for sure. The Bad Boys ushered in the defensive era and throughout the 90's defense is what won games. In the mid-90's games were low scoring and some were boring, especially the '94 finals when the average scores were Houston 86.1 and New York 86.9. That finals was painful to watch. Thank goodness for OJ Simpson in the Ford Bronco to distract me from the game 5 snooze fest. The Cleveland Cavs made it to the playoffs one season holding the ball for 20 seconds per possession averaging 87 points per game. The NBA was losing fans and money, so to produce more offense, for two seasons the NBA moved the three point line up, eliminated hand checking from the end line to the opposite foul line, and stopped players from using their forearms to stop an offensive player that is facing the basket. There were also a number of rules that made hard fouls easy to get away with. Not all of the games were boring but if one is honest they would tell you that the 90's was good, it was tougher and much more competitive, but some of those games were difficult to watch. If it weren't true the NBA wouldn't have lost revenue and they wouldn't have tinkered with the rules.

      Back even before then, in the late 60’s into the 70’s there were some incredible wars at center. I remember the Knicks series with the Bullets, when Willis Reed would score 32 and have 32 rebounds. Then the next night Wes Unseld would have like the same exact stats against Reed. I believe Reed was 6’ 10” and Unseld was shorter than Reed. But even then they took shots from outside as well. I’m somewhat surprised no one really mentions Willis Reed. He was a very good center and played against guys like, Wilt Chamberlain, Bill Russel, Lew Alcindor, who became Kareem Abdul Jabbar, and was holding his own against them.

      Embiid would have straight body bagged him. Embiid is bigger and has Ewing,KG,Hakeem,Dirk moves with elite Defense. AD is more skilled but he don't have enough bricks in his pockets and he's wishy washy. Prime Dwight with the huge shoulders would be fun to watch on defense. Ewing couldn't stop him cuz he can't jump that high to get the lobs but Dwight isn't getting 30 a night so whatever
