Your last statement, "it's not really quantifiable", is one with which I agree.
Everyone has their own opinion. If you feel like the quality of play is as good today, the players are as likable, the game is as popular, as was the case during the golden age of the NBA then that is your opinion.
Fair enough, can't argue with that. That said, I listed a pretty impressive group of players at the high end of the spectrum that would be hard to argue weren't worthy of previous eras. There probably aren't as many vets these days, and there are certainly younger players than back in the day, so you could argue that comes at a cost to quality of play. On the flip side of that argument however, is the excitement of watching guys develop over time.

You need to factor in that I'm a 45 year old white guy with a margarita in my hand.

Nah, just voicing my honest opinion. Not trying to force it on anyone else. I understand we all like what we like and there is no right or wrong about it.
