Kevin Durant says that we are currently witnessing the peak of NBA basketball

[010101]

yeah in terms of the dribble pass shoot skillset*

 

[MurderToCassette]

Too bad we're not witnessing his peak

 

[In The Zone '98]

Perimeter wise, sure

Still too many bigs who can't do much

 

[CourtesyFlush]

His peak was 2018

I was going to make a thread about what everyone thinks is the peak of basketball, in terms of talent from 1 - 12

I don't think it was in the 90s, and I don't think it's currently either.

 

[2legit]

I don't know how anyone could watch Yesterday's Wolves-Nuggets game and seriously say that today's NBA sucks. That was an amazing game and the level of play right now in the NBA is absurd.

 

[jdubnyce]

Yes
I agree

 

[threattonature]

I think talent wise we are at the peak but that doesn't necessarily translate to being at the peak of entertainment for the NBA.

 

[Harry B]

Perhaps we are but it's not the peak in terms of entertainment, unfortunately they don't have to go hand in hand.

To exaggerate, it's like if 2010 Mayweather was fighting another 2010 Mayweather, yea it might've been the best boxing match in terms of boxers but a lot of people would fall asleep except the real like boxing super nerds.

 

[10bandz]

The Athletic published an article yesterday saying the same.

 

[Bigwhite2498]

Perimeter wise, sure

Still too many bigs who can't do much

Bigs do a lot wym why more than in the past

Well it for damn sure wasn't an era before the 90s, so this really only leaves the 00s as the only option. Is this what you're saying? Stand on it

 

[GoldenGlove]

This may be true, it also could be a way that he's coping with him being as good as he is along with Booker on the same team and not even making the Play-In.

The classic prop up your competition play to uphold your own legacy

 

[inndaskKy]

I disagree. I think the role players are better than ever but not the star players. The superstars were better 10 years ago.
