    The sixties were tops!
    Especially since I haven't followed it since then.

    You had guys like Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Pete Maravich, Willis Reed, Walt Frazier, etc.

    I never attended a game.

    80s definitely. In the 90s, the Lakers, Celtics, and Pistons were done, leaving the Bulls to play the rest.

    One of the lost art today especially in the league is - The Lost Art of Of The Mid Range Jumpshot. There's no mid range specialist today, a few guys are great at it, a couple like Kawaii Leonard and that dude from The Pacers, I forgot his name but he's white lol and his mid range pull up is a thing of beauty. Guys like Rip Hamilton back in the late 2000s was good too.
