Bill Simmons is a fucking genius. & pshhhhhhh, Stockton. He couldn't guard Russell Westbrook, let alone Rondo, Rose & Deron Williams.You guys are arguing whose got more legends. Obviously a team who all members (besides Shaq) are retired is going to have more legends. Most of the players on todays team aren't even 28 yet, haven't won rings because the league is so spread out outside of like three teams who have a legitimate chance of winning. Fuck all that "legacy" shit, we simply could not be guarded.

Solid response.how old are? the thing is everyone thinks their generation is better and they dont wanna believe it was better back in the day. I was like that in 90s when people said 80s were better but now that im older i dont disagree....
I just want to know, what are we comparing. Because I hear 20 years ago, and 20 years ago exactly the NBA sucked. It was Michael Jordan, the Bulls and a bunch of scrub teams for MJ to beat on. The 90-91 season was not exactly the shinning example of strong basketball.

The 90-91 season was not exactly the shinning example of strong basketball. Most the players were aging and getting ready to retire. Were the 80's better than today, absolutely. I started watching basketball in the 80's, loved every minute of it. Was it better in the 90's, absolutely, once those great draft classes in the early 90's started getting in the league, Alonzo, Shaq, Weber, Hardaway, I can go on and on. But 20 years ago, the 90-91 season, was it better than the 2010-2011, I want you to honestly look at these seasons and tell me honestly that the 1990-1991 season was better than the 2010-2011 season.
All I know is if you ask someone from the ages of 13-20, he will tell you that Kobe is the best. You ask someone from 22-32 he'll tell you Jordan was the best & you ask anyone older then that, they'll tell you Bird or Magic were the best.Everyone wants to hold the title to say they saw the best player ever.
You have to look at the facts though. 20+ years ago, kids didn't have theork ethic of today. These kids are hitting the gym at the ages of 12-13.LeBron is 6'8'', 250, brolic as fuck & can dribble & pass & play the PG position better then most PG's lol. Never been seen in the NBA before (You can make the argument of Magic) & to me that's not a coincidence, it's just the direction the game is headed. 6'8'' players 20+ years ago were clumsy, centers; not even PFs lol.
the thing with Magic is he could EVER average in the upper 20's in points - not that he needed to but LEbron can if he needs to
