In light of the recent years of making headlines about teams breaking old records (namely GSW's 73-9 record), there's been countless debates on past teams, players and league in general vs what it is today.
Yes, it's an entirely different era and the game is played alot different now with many aspects favoring both eras. I was having an argument about this with a colleague, and his only argument is that Jordan era >>. With no facts or reason. Although personally, the NBA during those days were funner for me to watch, it's hard to say what's better. It's not a black and white answer and homie thinks it is.
So it'd be awesome to get some collective thought going on "then vs now". Thoughts? Was the NBA truly better in the 90s than it is today? Or even in the 00s?
My brief take on it, although MJ the goat, I thought the league overall back then was a bit overrated after the first 3-peat. Stars after during the 2nd 3peat were aging and non really come to mind on the come up other than the 96 draft, to which they were sophomore players new in the league.
