Everyone always thinks the guys from before were the legends, and the current ones are just nothing, right? Maybe it’s just human nature, I guess. 😁
But honestly, the people who are 15 years younger than you will be talking about Stephen Curry, James Harden, Russell Westbrook, and the rest in that exact same way 15 years from now, once some new kids start running the league.
Anthony Wright30 said:That’s a tough one to call, though I suppose we’ll find out eventually. This current era of sports seems to belong to others; he isn't quite at that same level of cultural icon status that Michael Jordan enjoyed back in the 90s, so perhaps the conversation won't reach those heights.
The only way to truly cement that would be if he managed to pull off a three-peat with the Lakers. 😁
Besides, I feel that the NBA itself lacks much of the charisma it possessed twenty or thirty years ago. It has evolved into this highly profitable, somewhat polished product, yet in that process, it seems to have lost some of the raw charm it used to hold.

Carl Mitchell45 said:So, when it’s time to go burn down cars with the gamers, you're all leading the charge. But now? Suddenly everyone’s a saint. This whole thing was completely unnecessary, but honestly, I'm just sick of dealing with your hypocrisy.
Alex Kern3 said:Everything you just listed—it all boils down to bullying and stomping on people. That rarely ends well. But if you're actually looking to pull a knife on someone? That’s straight-up mental illness. It has nothing to do with anything else.
Any civilized person, fan or not, refuses to support that.
Everyone talks this "old school" tough guy nonsense, yet nobody seems to know the unwritten rule: once someone hits the ground, you don't keep kicking them while they're down.
Only cowards carry knives, and even a child knows that.
Nathan Foster23 What did he say?
holloworca10 said:What song is she singing? "Real Madrid, Real Madrid, Real Madrid, know that I love you, I love you, you're the pride of Chicago..."? I know it’s a classic, but it’s totally slipping my mind.
