Noah Lyles Doubles Down On NBA Champ Not Being World Champs, Cites Steph Curry Miracle Run As Proof

[willtkinda]

Please Americans stop
And shit up with this argument. NBA champions are not world champions. Even if they might be the best or the best league. It’s not a world league it’s a American league. My god get over this .

[wardy]

An NBA championship is harder to get than a gold medal. The NBA is the strongest basketball league by a large margin. Of course the champion of that league is the champion of the world. Its the league with all the best players in the world.

[nwar]

He's right yet again. They almost blew their last two games. Even with the best players on their team.

[Ndndjdmdkdmcm]

Hes simply saying the NBA CHAMPIONSHIP isnt the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP, the NBA only plays within America and 1 Canada team, that isnt the world, the world championship is when tou play other teams from other countries like you qould in a Olympics, so the NBA is just that, an NBA, Its not a world champion, so NUGGETS 2023 AND CELTICS 2024 ARE JUST NBA CHAMPIONS NOT WORLD CHAMPION BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T PLAY AGAINST THE WORLD'S

[TC]

Noah is correct. NBA Champion are not World Champion. He is absolutely correctly. I am from US and we should never take it for granted. Other countries are getting better every year!

[vitotntceo]

Maaaane we wouldn't even know who Noah was if it won't for his nba comment 💯

[IceMicko]

The best players of Serbia (Jokic, Bogdanovic, Micic, Jovic) and France (Wemby, Batum, Gobert, Fournier) play in NBA.

[elbarto]

What Noah is saying is even though he is #1 in USA Usain Bolt is hes Daddy! Guess what USA basketball did win the gold ! Which makes them the champions of the world! Bro is just bitter...

[paulselvadurai]

This guy talking look like a Star Wars character…, JABBA THA HUT OF WHAT my dude

[Ambushw]

It’s open to the world 70% of the basketball Olympians are nba players, the 2 best players are from Europe, and 2/3 more top 10 players are not from North America as well, and over 25 percent in the nba aren’t American or Canadian

[davidsteele]

Well they left one of the current champions of the list with brown Tatum hardly played what was just on a holiday so technically it's not the NBA world champions😅😅😅😅😅

[dominicgentry]

Better yet cut it out because it takes other countries to find the best they have to challenge our elderlies.

[OzThegame]

That clown is jealous because he couldn’t get a shoe from Nike and maybe that will change or has already changed especially due to the Olympic Games. There was a pretty detailed article about this. He can’t make the money they make, the major exposure and interest except during upcoming Olympic years. Sad that he’s this petty but nothing will change with the NBA or no other sports league because of something he said

[dominicgentry]

How about we stop caring because if other countries realize that we Americans are not trying to offend anyone and going over seas is a down grade and coming here is a upgrade because your own people made it that way.

[ACEDshooter]

Here my only problem and it stems from lebron simp fans. How does winning the Olympic makes you the goat when all the best players are in the nba. So doesn’t that mean the nba chip is worth more for your goat legacy then some gold medal Olympic ring?

[AlyJulmiste]

Noah Lyles didn't say anything wrong. It was disrespectful for the NBA championship to call themselves world champions when there are other basketball leagues in world. US barely won the Olympics championship. I don't see them winning in the next Olympics.

[mrtoledobman]

I dont think we should allow people from other countries to come train here and play here then go play agianst us in the Olympics its either u wanna be a American or not

[StephanieDasher.]

He’s a silver medalist. He won by 2 quarters and now feels he has room to talk. Take God for technology or he really would be a 2 place finisher. He himself congratulated the Jamaican runner because he thought he won.

He needs to just hush and stop trying to gain attention like Bolt. He actually took Bolt’s words of advice too far. SMH

[brokentvuniverse]

Basketball coach either told him "you're fast kid but youre too short and you cant dribble, run track" or a basketball player smashed his girl....

[goodcompanyman]

UEFA Champions don’t call themselves the World Champs… NBA shouldn’t either
