[@nastyniloskeets]

Basketball from the 70s 80s and 90s was amazing, that era laid the foundation of skills in today’s NBA these guys originated moves schemes and training/prep work. The names, superstars, characters, teams, coaches, rivalries and competitive nature of the game was on a different level and resulted in boosting not only the NBA’s but the game of basketball’s impact in the USA and all over the world

I was 3 years old on January 1, 1980. And, I was 13 years old on December 31, 1989. The '80s were great for the NBA. I wish my hometown of Pittsburgh, Pa. had a NBA team. I remember when the NBA had 1 preseason game played here in Pittsburgh every year.

[@patrickkirkham]

How the hell would you know? From three to thirteen you think you actually even paid attention to basketball? Please…. it was barely televised back then, magic and bird literally saved the league in the beginning of the 80s and a big chunk of the players were still coked out in the early 80s

That's because in the 70s the pool of bball talent was divided between 2 leagues. Bringing each other down. Instead of the competition making each other better. As it was between 1980 to 2004 the best era of bbal 25 years.

[@ricardolozano5356]

the pistons were better that year

[@HoopTY303]

I’ve heard; they left Isaiah Thomas off the “Dream Team” because of the Pistons “bad boy” image. So even though he absolutely deserved to go to the Olympics and win the gold with the other superstars he didn’t get picked. Basically they held Isaiah accountable for things that others, especially Lambeer, did. That’s messed up if it’s true!

[@BladeRunner-td8be]

These professionals talking about the shorts they had to wear in the 80's, badmouthing the hell out of them now. But back then it was the style. All they guys wore that style not just for basketball, but tennis, soccer, track and field, cross country running, the list is endless. And I never heard one bad word about them then. As a matter of fact when the world changed and the short shorts left the scene I didn't like it. I hated those new shorts. One guys says, "I don't think I've ever seen one person block Kareem's sky hook" Wilt Chamberlain blocked it at least one time. But his point is accurate, thousands of sky hooks that were never even close to being blocked by Kareem. And one of the commentators says Buck Williams was the strongest guy in the league at the time and maybe the strongest of all time. Please. Buck Williams couldn't hold a candle to the strength of Wilt Chamberlain.
