    Default The NBA really sucked in the 90s

    Why is this era becoming so overrated the only great part of the 90s was when the bulls first 3 peated. After Jordan came back he was the only exciting player teams were struggling to score 100 points. It was so bad the media had to hype high school players as being the next jordan.

    Without a doubt the weakest era in NBA history.

    statistics?

    The 90s were overrated, but that is the era most of us grew up in. Some obviously caught the 80s.

    The fact that the media was hyping up high school kids speaks more to Jordan's greatness individually than the 90s as a whole.

    The 90s had Hakeem, Shaq, Ewing, D-Rob, Barkley, Stockton, Malone, Pippen, Reggie, Jordan, Payton, Mourning, Mutombo, Drexler, pre-injury Hill, Mullin, KJ, both Hardaways, Richmond, etc.

    The 90s was ****ing amazing. Throw MJ in this era and 10 years from now we'd have morons like you saying the 2010s sucked...even though it already kinda does.

    LOL @ Thread.

    x era is weak because I'm a fan of z era. Blah blah blah. I've been a fan since before Jordan, and the NBA has not had a weak era in my lifetime. the 00s might be the weakest, but that doesn't make it weak.

    The 00s era was stronger than today. There are 3 legit all-time great, top-tier HOFers in this era, KD, Lebron, and Wade - and one of them has been a shell of himself for almost 3 years now. James Harden is arguably a top 10 player. Kevin Love is considered a top 10 player...and has yet to make the playoffs in 6 seasons.

    In the 00s you had Shaq, Kobe, Duncan, KG, and Dirk. Then you had guys like TMac, Iverson, Kidd, Vince, C-Webb, Nash, Ray, Pierce, Ming, Sheed, Wallace, Brand, Maron, etc. You can include overlap guys like Lebron, Wade, Manu, Parker, Melo, Gasol, Zbo, Stat.

    Can you imagine how badly prime Shaq would shit on this current era?
