Top two player peaks since you started watching?

[fpliii]

Just a spinoff of something I brought up in CavsFTW's thread. This is in purely terms of level of play/dominance, I'm not taking into account accolades (though obviously when you're playing at that level, you're going to walk away with a ton of hardware). Order doesn't matter here.

Started Watching: 92-93
Top two peaks: Shaq and Hakeem

Who you got?

I started watching seriously in 1979. Top two player peaks:

Bird: Hard to define his actual peak, because he was amazing from day one until his injuries statred to catch up with him, but I'll go with 83-88

Jordan: I was lucky enough to get WGN on my cable during his prims years, so I saw as many of his games as I did Bird's or Lebron's. When I think about Jordan, I think about just how amazing his overall career would have lookd if he hadn't had those two retirements. Anyway, peak was probably 87-91, but as with any true greats it's hard to narrow it down even that far.

Honorable mention to Magic Johnson and Lebron James.

I wish I got to see Bird + MJ live at their bests. Watching tape of them, both dude's were incredible off-ball.
