Baron is a fool
FIBA Basketball World Cup over Olympics is some arbitrary nonsense based entirely off of semantics. For one thing, the FIBA World Cup is literally a qualifying tournament for the Olympics - that inherently makes it less of a world championship . And on top of that, the NBA sends a bunch of roleplayers to the FIBA championships these days. The FIBA World Cup is like the Intercontinental TitleI agree with Noah and agree with you, but I don’t think winning the Olympics makes you a world champ, makes you an Olympic champ. I think to be called a world champion you have to win the FIBA Basketball World Cup which Germany is the champion of currently.
Now if the NBA champion played against some of the top teams from South America and Europe and won a tournament then I think that is fair to call them the world champions. For the record an NBA team would in fact smoke a European or South American team, but until you play other parts of the world it is hard to say you are the best in the world.
The entire world does not play in the NBA. Individual players from all over the world play in the NBA. FIBA and the Olympics are world competitions.But the entire world plays in the nba, its not like baseball where international talent can actually compete with the US. Most players outside of the US couldn't make it in the nba if they wanted to.
Dawg, think about what you're saying. What do all the international teams that give USA fits have in common? All of them have multiple players that are in the NBA!The entire world does not play in the NBA. Individual players from all over the world play in the NBA. FIBA and the Olympics are world competitions.
Idk how you are saying international talent can’t compete with the NBA when:
1. You just said international players compete in the NBA. Some of the best players are international players.
2. The Olympics was very competitive this year
3. The US barely won with once in a generation level talent like Lebron, curry, KD on the team. I seriously doubt the US will win the next Olympics with these players gone.
You’re making the same point everyone else is making: “the NBA has the best talent in the world so it’s like being world champs”Dawg, think about what you're saying. What do all the international teams that give USA fits have in common? All of them have multiple players that are in the NBA!
Were not talking about USA basketball when we're talking world champs. We're talking about the NBA - a league where all of the best international players are. If players on other international teams could even fukk with the 12th man on an NBA roster...they'd be in the NBA
For all intents and purposes, the NBA is the world basketball league. Does it sound like typical sollipsistic American exceptionally? In a vacuum, yeah. But is it true? Demonstrably so.
At first glance, I thought you was that glazer @Roger king going off your Avi…. (yes mj not your idol)That wheelchair shyt Noah pulled and tebogo flipping someone off while winning a race got me thinking track mfs are like WRs straight divas.
Whatever going on between you two big dikk nikkas, leave me out of itAt first glance, I thought you was that glazer @Roger king going off your Avi…. (yes mj not your idol)
I’m on your neck like hickies! (No @KnickstapeCity )
@Roger king begs other big dikk posters for money. Don’t get it twisted.Whatever going on between you two big dikk nikkas, leave me out of it
You’re making the same point everyone else is making: “the NBA has the best talent in the world so it’s like being world champs”
The title “world champion” does not specify talent level, it specifies the type of competition in the particular league.
Case in point, the USA lost the Olympics in 2004 and the pistons won the title that same year. Were the Detroit pistons world champs that year? No.
Does that mean the Argentina is better than the pistons? No.
He is wrong for the exact reason Draymond said. NBA is the best league in the world. NBA is a league. Olympics is an event every 4 years. It's not the same.I mean Lyles ain’t wrong.. NBA champs ain’t world champs.
When they beat the teams in the Olympics they become World Champs
Noah Lyles won the 100M .... the biggest, most popular race in the world..... Draymond is an idiot. Nobody can say shyt to Noah
All Noah Lyles did was jumpstart all these jealous racist cacs and foreigners to talk shyt about the NBA
