[QUOTE="bigv, post: 296664, member: 835"] I agree with some of that but...today's NBA is all 3s. Can't name too many that can hit mid range jumpers. They flat out can't. They drive in for a dunk or kick for 3. Travel like crazy and play crap D. The truth is today's guys are NOT NATURALLY better athletes. Very few lifted weights/trained, diet etc in the 80s. Just started getting popular in the 90s. What if some of those old boys had the nutrition, weight training, knowledge etc that today's guys do. Who knows what we would've seen! But naturally take away training etc they are no more athletic that the old boys. Hell, Jordan talked about guys smoking at halftime wanting to get games over with so could drink beer..lol! Espn played the 92 Dream team championship game the other day. Those boys were insane good both ends. They all could score at will and shut dudes down defensively. Charles Barkley may be most underrated player. Man he was an animal! Led dream team in most stats. But you are right hard to compare. It's a different game. I just prefer the older games because they played better D and had good team skills. Those dream team players would dominate today too. Pippen, Jordan, Malone, David Robinson, Bird, Magic, Barkley etc. Not too mention Kareem, Olajuwan, Worthy, Dr J, Ewing, shaq, Mullin, Reggie Miller, Isaiah the list goes on. [/QUOTE]
