Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 5153484, member: 833"] A case could be made that the 1999 and 2023 and 2024 championships are the most impressive from a talent standpoint because the overall talent level had been declining through the 90's into the 2000's, and then has been increasing again in the NIL era. A lot of the top talent in the late 2000's and through the 2010's was one-and-done or straight from high school, and a lot of the older players that would have headed to Europe 10 or 20 years ago are staying in college to play hoops for money. I think the talent level in basketball is as high now as it has ever been, which makes the last two back to back titles even more impressive. [/QUOTE]
