You look at the depth teams had in the 60s, 70s and 80s versus what they had in the Jordan era. It was tailor made for dominance by one player, which is not to take away from Jordan because he did dominate (and Hakeem did in his absence) and you play in the era you are born into. But to say that the rest of the league was on another level? Fuck no. Right now, like say that past five years, the league is FINALLY recovering from growing too quickly and regaining some depth across the board.
