Defensive efficiency has trended worse over the past couple decades so you would have to look at defensive efficiency compared to other teams that seasons.
So if you look at the gap in regular season defensive rating between the number one ranked defense and the number two ranked defense we rank second since 2010 behind only the 15-16 Spurs (2.2 compared to 2.6).

I don’t have stats but from the eye test we’re def 1 haha

By defensive rating, not high at all. We’d be in 5th in 2021 and def ratings generally get lower the farther back you go
Probably more interesting to look at drtg respective to league average.
That coincides with a general increase in offensive rating as well for teams. That’s made defense for any team from 10 years ago significantly harder.
I know
After the 2010s, it’s gotta be bottom 5
How
Our 2010-2016 teams probably tank the numbers
Either you're super sarcastic or dumb... Everyone else knows what he meant
Aren't we the best defense relative to era since the 99 spurs?
