kidding mostly of course.

Lebron is unreal, there are some unbelievable athletes playing now, and I LOVE watching Nash play.

But, when Kobe Bryant is considered maybe the best all around player.....

No way the NBA is as good as it used to be. The 10-15 year period between the early 80's and the mid 90's is the standard by which all should forever be measured.

I basically can only stand the playoffs now.

the league was more competitive back then, now there is only like 5-6 good teams in the league that have a chance at championship, where back then all the teams were good, and more competitive

I agree with this for the most part. Teams like Milwaukee in the 80's were a VERY good team. The 76ers could have been a dynasty if not for the Celtics (and Lakers). Later on in Jordans prime, teams like Utah, Portland, maybe the Knicks etc. were good teams who would compete for championships every year if they played in todays NBA.

Don't forget about Seattle with Gary and Kemp in their prime.

I'm sorry, I just can't watch a sport where multiple teams under .500 make the playoffs, and people think that the no child left behind act rewards mediocrity.

College and High School basketball, I can dig that.



Edit: Apparently two teams pulled out from under 500 and broke even.
