Is this how Americans really think?
Stay mad foreigner

Your best player ever is Jonas Valenciunas lol
>>76547077
We have the Olympics to crush you and the rest of the world.

he's got a point though. how about a bit of self awareness?
>>76547180
>Olympics
>>76547186
It is a world championship, for all intents and purposes. It'd be different if the concentration of talent weren't so high relative to all other leagues.
>>76547077
>He doesn't know bout the Rapties
why can't we just say league champion or us champions?
>national basketball association world champions
>>76547337

is it a good thing to be the king of canada?
>>76547492
It is. All taxes collected in Maple syrup, poutine, and natural gas.
>>76547077
It's just something they say to make the accomplishment seem more grand, and nobody freaks because there aren't better teams floating around.
It's weird to me that you guys are eternally flustered and always attribute it to lack of self awareness/exceptionalism
If any foreign team were able to beat win the championship then you'd be right. It's really a moot point though because the warriors would curbstomp literally any international team that would compete.
>>76547077
>he thinks zalgiris can beat the Warriors
How can you even say CR7 is the best player in the world right now when he hasn't even played against the Columbus Crew?
>america is best in the world at basketball
>warriors are the best american team
>by the transitive property, warriors are the best team in the world.
>non-american """"education"""
>>76547548
you have no point thought for there is no other team outside of the usa and canada in the nba
>>76547463
If the top 3 teams in the best 10 (((footy))) leagues were in one group, the winner would most certainly be the best in the world. That is why it's appropriate to label the team who wins the NBA title as "world champs."
>>76547077
We just assume if we're the best in America, we're easily the best in the world.
>>76547615
TIL La Liga champions = World champions
>>76547186
Honestly, if we ever had a club world cup, the playoffs would be 95% American teams anyway
>>76547669
>La Liga Champions: Real Madrid
>FIFA Club World Cup Champions: Real Madrid
Warriors confirmed best team in the world.
>>76547644
because no team would be good enough to compete in the nba
>>76547077
>>76547138
>>76547153
> Implying you subhumans could even remotely compete in basketball
>>76547077
Anyone in the world can play for the NBA
>>76547791
TIL Premier League champions = World Champions
They have players from all over the world, even more than the NBA.
>tfw actual yuro basketball teams will never be as autistic about this as yuro/sp/ is
I want to see them challenge Golden State tbqh.
>>76547681
Cute, but that is not how it works sweetie.
Brazil has like 3 players in the NBA, these guys are literally football rejects and play in the "best league in the world" of a sport. How shit can this sport be?
the best players in the world come to play here, it is the dream of all spaniards, argentinians, lithuanians, serbians, greeks, italians, or anyone else that's good in basketball. This is the pinnacle of the sport, this is where the 3 point line is actually a decent distance away from the basket, this is where you have to beat Apes to be the best. This is the world's best league, and the winner is the world champion.
>>76549513
If by football rejects you mean "not manlet enough for divegrass" then sure
