The league wasin the late 90’s and early 00’s, it was a superteam or at least an attempt at one stop it
Except we all knew it wasn't super.Just a motley old crew of stars putting the band back together for one last ditch effort.
It was nothing more than a cute lil novelty.Nobody actually thought the Rockets were about to dominate the league.Had they
done that shyt in '90-'91, then yeah, it would've been a super team.It takes players in their prime to put the "super" in Super Team

This fat fukk teams up with Double Quarter Pounder meal everyday, now that’s an unbeatable combo
He wouldn't have that energy if this goofy shyt got him a ring
ALL WAY PAST THEIR PRIME, DOESNT COUNT
LEBRON STARTED THIS SHIIT ..... THIS IS LEBRON’S NBA WE LIVIN IN. THE ALPHA’S WANTED TO DESTROY EACH OTHER, NOT HOLD HANDS ON BANANA BOATS
Lebron ushered in the era of non-competitiveness with the Miami big 3. AD, Kawhi, and Lebron is truly the weakest move ever made in the NBA.

No, you’re adding pointless qualifiers to it. The average age in the NBA was 28 years old back then.
It was an old league. The old guys who were drafted in the 80’s were still the best players in the league and only those veteran squads were really the title contenders.
Barkley, Drexler (later Pippen), Olajuwon still put up numbers and were still among the top players at their positions. They won 57 damn games and Barkley forced his way there threatening retirement.

Why doesn’t it count when they lost to a 33-34 Stockton & Malone, you act like the West was really that good in the late 90s before Duncan/Webber/Kobe came along. They should’ve had a finals appearance
Doesn't even make sense breh. There's literally nothing to suggest that the league is worse off because of any of this. If anything, the teams as a whole are better. Stars team up and forget they need a supporting cast, which leads other teams to stock up on solid players and remain good competition.
Ratings still good, revenue still going up, and free agency dominating the media.
He was basically a journeyman vet at that point. Thats like shaq going to cavs.He wouldn't have that energy if this goofy shyt got him a ring
A little different than if MJ had said fukk it, and demanded a trade to pistons in 90s.
