Wait a second, lol You're not even an American. Why all the crying bro? He's from the Philippines it all makes sense now. These dudes will die a nba fan no matter what. They goin hard every single time lmfao @roslolian
Yep and now I know why this dude is so emotional. Probably the same kind of person that would crowd out at the bus just to see them come out lmao. Obsessive fan most likely.
I'm not crying I'm just saying the Fiba MVP is a role player in the NBA. The ones crying are you guys who still don't realize Jokic and Luka Doncic aren't American. NBA is an international league with the best players in the world that's why everyone all over the world watches the NBA...
I like the personal attacks and subtle racist undertones. Way to show who is really invested here and who isn't. Such a surprise someone posting on a Rockets forum cares about the NBA wtf.
You can call yourself unofficially World Champs and still be a regional sport.champion just with international players. A regional champ with international players. Best players league still is regional.
unless you compete with other countries....not sure how you can call yourself world champions. but it's on par for americans to think other countries don't exist.. here's the real world championship: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FIBA_Basketball_World_Cup COME AT ME. also wtf is up with MISS UNIVERSE? have you even seen some of the hotties from the other worlds?? so hawt.
how this thread keeps going is just quite sad. It's established that The NBA is a North American basketball league that contains some international players. The team that wins the nba championship doesn't represent the world, they represent/won it for the US/canada city that signed them to a contract essentially mercenaries You need to win an international competition to proclaim yourself the world champ, which Germany just did Best league does not equate to an automatic crowning of the title World champ Like u can call NBA champions, the world champs if you want, but as long as you know that you are incorrect/inaccurate about it. Some folks like to believe that the NBA/USA is the center of the world, can't change those folks mindset.
Basically it is about them having the bragging rights because they think they are on the higher level. (that is not the important part even) Basically we are here correcting them about the inaccuracy of a regional league/tournament format. The NBA can call itself whatever title but it is the National Basketball Association for a reason.
