Here are your top 24, not including dopers, altitude times, and fake times:
1 Vicaut/Thompson 9.95
3 Ujah/Collins 9.96
5 Bromell/Ashmeade 9.97
7 Friday 10.00
8 Adams 10.01

16 Kiryu/Brown/Livermore 10.05
19 Gittens/Rogers 10.06
21 Mvumvure/Gemili/Brown/Silmon 10.07
Welcome back to 1983, one of the last clean years:
Smith 9.93
Lewis 9.97
Lattany 10.03
Penalver/Brown/King 10.06
Exclude Smith's 9.93, and you have improvement of only .02 in the top time, and a densification of the top range, which would be something you would expect due to better recruitment and retention, and universal training.
Here is the 200m list from 1983:
Lewis 19.75
Smith 19.99
Myricks 20.03
Quow 20.16
Lattany 20.22
Here's the clean 2014 list:
1 Weir 19.82
2 Edward 19.84
3 Ashmeade 19.95
4 Dukes 19.97
5 Dwyer 20.04
6 Adams/Lemaitre 20.08
8 Mitchell 20.13
9 Ernest 20.14
10 Hardy/Brown/Ogunode 20.16
Exactly the same story as with the 100m. Same range, greater densification. The great Lewis was ahead of the current crop, as one of the best-ever should be.
