How would the 2001 team do vs the 2010, 2015 and 1992 teams?

I'm in the camp that thinks the '99 team was the best Duke team in the K era. And I can't choose between '92 and '01 for second best.

Went back and looked at the stats for that team and can't believe Avery averaged 14 ppg. Chalk it up to my memory not thinking of him when that team comes to mind.

What made the 99 team so impressive was how young they were, and how easily they scored. Elton Brand was an absolute monster in the post. I think he's shooting percentage was like 69 maybe 70. That's is crazy. Maybe the best athlete in the country, next to Melvin Levette from Cincy, was coming off the bench in Corey Maggette and Nate James before the injuries as well. But as far as championship teams I'll go with the 1991 team, cause I was 11 and maybe the only Duke basketball fan in the state of Louisiana. Everyone in the world had pretty much guaranteed an Unlv blow out. But an alley oop pass from Bobby Hurley to Grant Hill changed every thing. That Duke was loaded too. Bobby Hurley, Bill McCaffery, Thomas Hill, Antonio Lang, Christian Laettner( arguably the college basketball player in the last 25 years or so), and Grant Hill (who would have been a top 20 player of all time at any level if not for injuries).
