I agreed with Windy here. The teams are getting better. The talent has improved. More 6'9"+ players have a 3-pt shot, year over year. The way that Steph, Dame Lillard, and maybe even Trae Young have stretched the floor, it has changed how players train as well as how teams scout and draft.

ESPN has turned Lebron and Steph into Gods. It is a ridiculous to listen to them talk about Lebron like he is not human. All media have made so much money off these 2 players, and their teams. They are humans at the end of their careers. There is nothing there to analyze 😊 There is no one to replace them, at least no one that the media is interested in except Wemby. So the media is holding on for dear life.😢 Lebron and Curry have been great for basketball. We love and enjoy their game Let's appreciate them. But at the same time, the media should focus on the good basketball that is being played currently in the West and also in the East.
