Probably 2003 or so, Kevin, Duncan and TMac hitting their primes would be tough to deal with for any team.

How are players who started playing in the 95 season consider early 90s?

Also, are we comparing the early 90s team at age 24, 26, 25, 26, and 27 to players ages 22, 22, 23, 20, and 21. Replace Iverson with someone like Nash as well if you are going by best players.

Nash didn't have a good season until 2001 as far as I remember.

Iverson scored 26 that season.

When do the late 90s team win, what year?

As soon as they enter their primes. Perhaps comparing the teams at age 26 is better, no? Maybe 24? How about 22?
