This is something oft-forgotten in these era debates.

Development of players is better and the pool is larger, and the result is a smarter, more skilled talent base across the board.

The NBA in the 90s and early 00s had a huge talent issue, in part from over-expansion and the lack of elite international talent at the time. Bill Simmons talks about this all the time. Almost all of those rosters fell off after a few guys and the talent level was just shite.
