Early 2000s - the last era of the real NBA

[robocap]

I understand some may disagree, but these players were the heart and soul of the NBA's last golden age. Back then, no one took nights off. It was pure intensity! Remember Vince Carter's dunks, T-Mac's three-pointers, and Dirk fading away for buckets? Now that was basketball!

Early 2000s NBA all the way! With so much physical defense, those games were a lot more exciting to watch. There were even lights at All-Star games back then! I understand the 'easier' thing about all these threes today, but it's just not as exciting. Pull-up jumpers and driving layups/dunks will always be my favorites. That's the NBA I adored growing up.
