Welcome to another Episode of Old Head Hoops, and have we got a DOOZY for you!! Every generation of NBA basketball fan truly believes that their era was the best. Sometimes it’s true, sometimes they’re delusional!

So on this special episode of @OldHeadHoops-c9r we debate the age old question of which generation is the best, by pitting a current player against his retro equivalent, and weighing up the pros and cons of each, before ultimately deciding who is greater.

There are some agreements, and it wouldn’t be Old Head Hoops without some disagreements between the boys 😂!!! We’ve pulled no punches here ladies and gentlemen, and we match some absolute all time legends of NBA history up against some of the future first ballot hall of famers!! It’s a who’s who of superstars from the 80s all the way to 2025!

Please don’t forget to like and subscribe to the channel for all your retro and current NBA content! And let us know in the comments what you think of our choices! We don’t mind copping a bit of humble pie!
