This decade is NBA at its finest, better than 80s, 90s.

No other decades have had so much superstars and spectacular players as the 2000s:

Shaquille O'neal - Goat center?
Tim Duncan - Goat PF?
Dirk Nowitzki - one of the best PF's ever
Kobe Bryant - second best SG ever
Wade - MJ's true successer?
Kevin Garnett - also one of the best PF's ever
Chris Paul - really really good PG
Steve Nash - one of the best PG's in history
Jason Kidd - also oneof the best PG's in history
Lebron James - Goat SF?
and so much more

plz stop saying the 80s or 90s were better, the 2000s truly is the golden era of NBA, no other decades have had so much talent

God you are useless, you can do a list just like that for the 80's or 90's as well.

Given that you have seen enough basketball of the 80's & 90's, and know that it goes much more further than listing a couple of names, your opinion should be taken seriously...

[QUOTE=tedloc]you fail op

how old are you?[/QUOTE]

59, started watching during the 70s

early - mid 00's were garbage

But I will say the late 00's was fantastic basketball, the best basketball since the early 90's. We got to see Kobe, LeBron, Paul, Nowitzki, Duncan, Wade, Garnett all playing at an elite level. And all seven of these guys will probably go down as top 25-30 players of all time when it's all set and done.

90s > 80s > 00s

Even though the op' premise is flawed. There is some truth to what he is trying to say. Its just too early to say it. There is alot of young generational talent in the league today. By that I mean there are a bunch of players that people will remember in 20yrs.

Now its difficult to compare today' players to the superstars and the legends that dominated in the 80's and 90's. But not because the talent isn't there. More because their resumes aren't at that level yet. But alot of us(by us I'm talking about us older fans that got to watch 80's + 90's) need to leave the "golden era" in the past. Regardless of what alot of people believe, there [B]IS[/B] alot of good basketball being played now. And in alot of ways yo could argue that the top teams in the league are as stacked now as they've been since the 80's.

He's not RG, judging from his previous posts. FinalCountdown would be more like RG than KG5MVP is, even though I'm not sure whether it is him or not.

[QUOTE=KG5MVP]59, started watching during the 70s[/QUOTE]

LOL. Dude, there is nobody over puberty who likes a fool like KG.

Anyway this decade could've been great, we got Lebron, Dirk, Nash, Duncan, Kidd, Pierce, etc, but too bad there are overrated clowns like Kobe, Amare and KG, who bring the quality down several notches.
