Just because you didnt grow up watching these guys play does not mean they were not the best at what they did or that the players of today would out ball them.

No, actually teams in this era, the Curry Era, as they're built now after catching up to and emulating Curry for the past 9 years, would DESTROY every team from the Pre-Curry Era for the very simple reason that 3s are worth a lot more than 2s and the defense necessary to defend 3s is unlike anything the league, or the sport as a whole, has ever seen. ANY current NBA team would literally blow out every team from the past except maybe the MJ 's 2nd 3-peat team. Not because the previous generation was less skilled in a subjective sense but because they were objectively FORCED to improve, to level up, year after year after year or get their asses whooped by Golden State, year after year after year. Most of the players from previous eras would be able to match the skill-sets that are required in the Curry Era if they were faced with the same do or die situation. So this entire idea of "they didn't have skills" just shows how ignorant and youthful Anthony Edwards is. But the skill-sets required in the Pre-Curry Era were peanuts compared to what is required today. And you can thank or blame STEPHEN CURRY for all of it. It's taken the league about 8 years to be able to MATCH Golden State, with this current Boston team being the best of the Curry Era so far. But look at Golden State right now? Curry just needed a few no-names coming off the bench to jump back in to 2nd place and beat the 1st place team, after beating Boston. He revolutionized the entire sport and he's not done winning rings. I wouldn't bet against him versus any team playing right now. Ironically the only team from the past that might stand a chance against them is MJ's 2nd 3-peat team. They had the length and could if necessary shoot 3s. If you gave them one year to practice 3s they'd be ready, although Rodman would be interesting.

In the 1980s and 1990s, NBA players didn’t work offseason jobs like plumbers or janitors. By then, the league was highly profitable, and players earned enough to focus solely on basketball. Average salaries ranged from $200K-$800K in the 80s and soared to $1.7M-$2M in the 90s. The idea of players working offseason jobs comes from earlier decades (1940s-60s), when pro basketball salaries were much lower, and players often needed second jobs to make ends meet. By the 80s and 90s, those days were long gone.

Jordan actually wanted to play baseball after his 3rd championship (since no other team in nba history had every repeated 3 times) and once his father was killed he retired because his love for basketball went away and he was focused on the last conversations him and his father James had about him playing pro baseball. He went on a process of healing and soul searching after his father passed and it helped him find his passion for the game of basketball again when he had to put in that work for baseball it made him remember all work he put in to basketball. His minor league coaches said that if baseball didnt go on strike than Jordans baseball skill would have had him in the major leagues eventually. And after the 3rd repeat, the GM of the Bulls said that Phil Jackson would be fired at end of 98 season even if Bulls won 82 games and got a championship. Needless to say Jordan didnt want to try and play with any other coach except Phil and said he would retire if they dont bring Phil back so that why he retired twice. Third and final retirement happend when Jordan was Director of Operations for the Wizards and saw the lack of efforts players were giving so he came out of retirement to show young kids how to hoop. After his Wizards teammate ran into him Jordan retired due to that injury. To step away from the for multiple years and come back still top player in league is more impressive to me than someone mediocre who plays for a long time (LBJ).

Wanna know another reason Jordan is in a class by himself? When he was active in the league, Jordan had a media machine making him notorious far beyond the sport. He was everywhere. You knew him even if you knew nothing about basketball. The marketing apparatus that's currently promoting James was *built* for Jordan. But here's the thing-- fast-forward a couple decades, Jordan's celebrity status has faded . . . and people are still talking about him. He's the status against which all else is measured, way after he quit being the face of the league. That will not happen with James. Once he retires his star will shrink, his accomplishments will take their proper place in historical context, and his relevance will fade. The circus grotesquerade with the Lakers is James fighting his oncoming irrelevance.

Let's not forget MJ was also 1 and 0 college titles. 2 and 0 olympics gold first in 1984 before even stepping on an NBA basketball court with a team of college students only as back then professional players were not allowed take part in the olympics.

This era isn’t that more skilled and International competitions proves it: where are the skills of those NBA players when the rules don’t allow it? Nowhere. Even when sending the best they have last summer, the US barely won against much weaker teams. If you put back hand checking, removes freedom of movement rule, count traveling and carrying the ball, the number of 3’s will drastically go down. Just look at Curry, before the change of rules in 2012, he was just above average at best. Change of rules comes in and boom, superstar.

100% facts!! People seem to forget how great Kobe was. If Kobe had MJs hands it would be a lot closer but the way they could just take over a game u just don’t see it anymore. I really believe Jordan and Kobe are on a whole different list. Then u have everyone else. Just my opinion but I’ve seen all 3 play I trust what my eyes are seeing.

the thing about young kids is that they think that bill russell and others played against no compt/janitors! If you ever played for a team or any pro league, you know that there is always talent on another team, never judge anybody is what i learned! im 6'3, played overseas and tried out for the G league....im 34 now, a bit chunky, but still ball, and all these young kids try to iso me lmfao, they cant match my speed! and when i dunk on em they all surprised!....Thats why you should never judge anybody!

Now, imagine if Jordan played as many games as LeBron. Or better yet, imagine if LeBron only played 13 seasons. It's really obvious especially if you was alive to watch both men play. LeBron is phenomenal but Jordan is the GOAT. End of story.

I know I’ll be getting heat from this, but Kobe is a great player, he is only as good as MJ is because he copied a lot of his moves. Throughout the years Kobe came into his own eventually and hats off to him, but MJ was in his own league.

Jordan did not play against plummers. lol The 1984 draft was cinsiderd one of the best draft in nba hisory the 80's and 90's had many of hall of famers. it was mans man game back then. these players today are not skilled and they are soft as peanut butter sanwiches.

Lebron isn t a pass first player, he averages the same amount of shots per game as Kobe... plus if he were a pass first player, after all these years he d be the assist leader, not the scoring leader. Anyway, MJ did way more, in way less time. Even superstars today aren t good at the fundamentals of the game, that s lacking skill, not being more skilled, because of shooting a three, but can t do a simple lay up without traveling. You can even see MJ is better, just as Kobe is better, you don t even need stats. You just know by seeing them play. Wizards MJ had moves, the Lebron can t even dream. 20 years from now, they ll say Lebron had no competition, he didn t even win the most championships in his own era.

These days players aren’t more skilled, they just changes the rules since Jordan’s era. If you have 90s players the freedom that todays players have they gon tear it up. However if todays players have to play in with 90s rules they wont have the fundamentals to compete.

Brother there's nothing wrong with lebron being your goat .like you said your 25 it's understandable..but now that you've seen MJ and realize why we call him the GOAT..its cuz we've seen both and its not even close..but the majority of lebron fans when told lebron needed all those allstars and MJ only needed pippen...they'll say MJ had a superteam or he played easier competition...the worse one is when they say is that he played and old pistons team and beat them ..but the fact is the spurs who LeBron played were older..so there's that....so most of that myth that his era was easier is nowhere near the truth..but they try to convince themselves that MJ is not the GOAT just to pump up lebron..denial is a real thing..😂....(Not you )...just in general.......but again nothing wrong with lebron being your GOAT..MJ is just ours.

Yeah LeBron is a pass first but that's his choice just like scoring was MJs..but you also seen that MJ can pass..rebound ..block... play defense...and has a great post up and fade away shot..and is 83 % free throw shooter..but can LeBron do most of what MJ did with less help?..that's the difference...and to say that he played against less skilled players?..wait till you do more research on more 80's and 90's players then see if you still think the same.

Know the statements going around "they were janitors and plumbers" 🙄 why isnt the NBA more competitive now then??? For awhile we knew who was going to be in the finals and playoffs...its not like everyone in this era plays like Jordan because none of them do! When it comes to Bill Russell he is definitely Top 10 all time strictly for the numerous amounts of rings, but for me he cant be in the top 5 simply because there were a total of only 11 teams in the NBA when he played and most importantly they didnt have the 82 game season like the modern NBA has. The plumbers and janitors statement is a simple statement to dismiss anything that happend before this era which is ridiculous. Theres no NBA without legends like Bill Russell, Walt Frazier, Earl The Pearl Monroe, Oscar Roberson, Wilt Chamberlain, George Michan, Pistol Pete, Jerry West and so many countless others who played basketball at the highest level and all of the previously mentioned players would give these young kids in the league nigtmares how old their game is but how effective it is. These new school guys claim to be the most athletic ever then tell me why dont they play defense like how Jordan played defense...with same energy and effort that he had on offense...the only one who is close to that level in modern NBA is Kawhi Leonard. Dont let JJ Redicks podcast statement fool you...when you hear statements like this consider the source! What did JJ Redick to in his NBA career that vastly stands out to you as a defining player in all NBA history? Will JJ Redick even be a Hall of Famer??? He was a role player and was a bus rider not a bus driver so him talking about others champions is like when Charles Barkley tries to talk about what it takes for winning a championship then Shaq and Kenny interupt him because they actually are champions! Barkley was a legit superstar and hall of famer and you wont ever hear him talk about prior NBA players game negatively, no need to do it because they already put their stamp on it. Despite Barkley not winning he was a bus driver and took the Suns to the finals which is more than JJ Redick has ever done on any of the teams he played for combined. Oscar Roberson and Earl Monroe would D up guys like Dame and yes even Steph with defense and fundamental offense. You should really learn more about the history of the game and the structure and rules of the league and rules through the eras to see how the game has evolved. But yes Russell did have lots of rings but he also lost alot as well, his competition was his competition and at the end of the day their can only be one...he did it 13 times, he still had to go out there and hoop! Some guys today dont even have a complete toolbox of fundamentals because now everyone iust specializes in their 'skill set' which basically means that that player can only do a limited amount of things real well but in other areas may have major faults. Give me the old school "plumbers" over these soft kids any day and plumbers will have you cracking up..pun intended lol. But yes do your basketball history homework and research!
