i'm taking 08's potential over 70's accomplishments

I'm inclined to agree. 70 does have some great players in Tiny Archibald and Maravich, but I think Rose and Westbrook and maybe even Eric Gordon have the potential to be just as good or better. KLove is a beast already. Seems to be a guy who will be getting 20/20 games for years to come. Might be too early to say for sure, but 08 hasn't even reached their prime yet and I'd say they're already pretty darn good...

08 has the potential to be better...I'd pretty much agree with what's been said already.

'70 destroys the '08 team.

Do explain

Why would you say such a terrible thing? Why?

Pretty amazing that the best player on either team is stuck on the 1970's bench in the 7th spot.

ya, i thought that was weird

correct me if i'm wrong here , isn't he the only one on that '70s list to win an MVP?
