@Bill Simmons : 我认为现在是NBA球星历史上最好的时代,尽管他们面临着社交媒体带来的负面评价,但这与过去几十年球星们经历的负面评价相比,有过之而无不及。从70年代到2000年代,许多球星都经历过媒体的严厉批评和不公平待遇,例如,Dr. J、魔术师约翰逊、拉里·伯德、查尔斯·巴克利、哈基姆·奥拉朱旺、迈克尔·乔丹、沙奎尔·奥尼尔、艾弗森等等,他们都曾遭受过媒体的强烈批评和质疑。而现在,虽然社交媒体使得负面评价更容易传播,但总体而言,现在的NBA球星们受到的尊重和待遇比以往任何时候都好。 此外,联盟的一些做法,例如漫长的赛程和球员的伤病管理,也加剧了球迷的负面情绪。但总的来说,我认为现在的球迷体验比过去更好,球星们也拥有更多的权利和资源。 @Ryen Russillo : 我不认同现在是NBA球星历史上最好的时代,因为他们更容易受到负面评价的影响。社交媒体的兴起使得负面评价更容易传播和放大,这给球员们带来了巨大的压力。虽然过去几十年球星们也经历过负面评价,但现在球员们更容易接触到这些负面评价,并且这些评价的影响也更加直接和迅速。此外,一些退役球员的评论并不可靠,因为他们的观点可能受到个人偏见的影响。总的来说,我认为现在球员们面临的压力和负面评价比以往任何时候都要大,这使得他们很难保持积极的心态。
