But yea, people seem to forget how close all those dudes were back in the 80s/90s, it really wasn't any different than it is now. They just didn't live in the social media age where you got to see them hanging out and hear about it and see it everywhere you turned. But Magic/MJ/Barkley...all those dudes were friends. Then you had a thing like MJ legit not being friendly with Isaiah Thomas, and that's similar to the Lebron/Steph dynamic nowadays.

I don't agree with this.

In the 80s and 90s teams didn't like each other.

Magic and Bird were hardcore rivals. They warmed up later but when they were playing, there was no love.

Everyone hated Detroit. Parish, Barkley, Bird vs Laimbeer, etc.

Malone and Magic (after the HIV) announcement.

MJ didn't seem to like anyone - even his own teammates.

There were a lot more guys that played like Draymond back then like Rodman.

Even in the 90s/2000s, you had teams that had bad blood. Kings/Lakers. Spurs with Bowen and Horry thugging it up.

And those Knicks teams with Starks weren't sucking each other off pregame.

It's the pussy arse super friends: Lebron, Paul, Wade, Carmelo that really made it all the rage to kiss each other's arse and the young guys just followed em as always.
