When I think of the Jordan era and great players, I think...

Jordan, Barkley, Drexler, Ewing, Malone, Shawn Kemp for a short period.... Starting to run out already.

Shoot now in the league you have a few guys with Jordan like skills. Obviously not Jordan but amazing game.

Bryant, James, Wade, Durant, Rose, Nowitzki, Dwight Howard, Chris Paul, Tim Duncan (although getting up there).

I don't know what's not to like.
I appreciate your enthusiasm for today's game but if your knowledge of the talent during the NBA's peak consists of "Jordan, Barkley, Drexler, Ewing, Malone, Shawn Kemp" you should probably just not comment on it.

No need to comment on "now in the league you have a few guys with Jordan like skills."

I stand by that the talent is better now. And think about what I said before you talk. I didn't say guys were as good as Jordan. I said had similar skills and amazing game.

If you can't see how Kobe Bryant's game is similar to Jordans, then you just don't get basketball. Maybe it's best that you're not that into the NBA anymore because you obviously just don't get it.

How would you know how today's talent compares when you don't even know who the talent was during the NBA's prime years? Of the top 6 you could come up with two of them were Shawn Kemp and Moses Malone.

If you can't see that the minute you mention Jordan's name in comparison to another player you are inviting a rebuttal to that comparison perhaps you should refrain from making that comparison.

Okay I'm done.

Yeah throw that point in my face because when people talk great players during the Jordan era and say Malone, of course they're not talking about Karl. Remember him? 2nd all time point leader?

Guess I should have spelled it out for you.

You are confusing being better athletes and being better players and I'm sure there is a huge difference there.

Magic > Lebron
Jordan > Kobe
Bird > Dirk
Olajuan > Howard

Totally agree. People who think that the NBA of today doesn't have extreme talent they really aren't watching the game.

The downside of the NBA is as evenfall stated there is no parity in the league which hopefully if the CBA ever gets signed that will take care of that problem.

I could give a shit about the NBA. They mock the actual game of basketball anymore. NCAA bball is a lot better game....fanbase is more into it....atmosphere is a lot more exciting.

I'm with ya. I'd also like to add that I'll likely never watch another complete NBA game again. I doubt I'll even watch part of one. Dont miss a single thing about it.
