The Lakers had a team full of Hall of Famers, Bob McAdoo came off the bench! Let's not forget Kareem has one more ring than Magic, has the most points in NBA history, and a shot that was unguardable.
To use your grades, if you have a guy who is an A- on offense, and an A- on defense, it's better than a guy who is an A on offense, and a C on defense. It's also hard for Klay to guard the best perimeter player every single night. The guy saved their season, he set a record for 11 3-pters, which people don't mention. I have a feeling if Curry did it, it would have been advertised more. I try not to get confused between marketing and the game itself.
I've played basketball my entire life, and you can tell without stats who brings what. But it's a team game. There's also individual defense, and team defense; knowing whether or not to go under the screen, or over. Also, it's a tactic at times to let a guy get past you because Ezeli is waiting to block a shot, or Draymond to take a charge.
Bill Russell averaged double-figures, a ton of rebounds, and when he got blocked a shot, he didn't throw it in the stands, instead it led to a fast-break.
It's almost impossible to compare eras - I think the best thing would be to have a "commentary" during the game so we'd all be on the same page. Of course I won't do it live, but I honestly wouldn't mind recording it, and going play by play this Finals. As I said before, a lot of the best players in each decade were guys I didn't like.
