      The fact is that all the best players in the world are already playing in the NBA, so it's already a melting pot of the World's Best. So yes, the team that wins the NBA Championship, is the best team in the World. The Premier League comparison is bad because their are clear examples from the fact that the Ballon D'or is always won outside of the Premier League going to show that there are superior talent playing outside of that league, guys like Mbappe, Messi, CR7, Neymar, Neuer, Lewandowski etc. This has never been the case outside of the NBA, the top talent ALL AROUND THE WORLD has always resided already inside the league.

      The NBA is the highest level of competition for basketball. The reason there are fewer international players is because they aren’t good enough (hence why the extremely successful European players come to the NBA). The reason very few people dispute the NBA calling its champion the “world champion” is because no other league’s champion would beat them. This debate is sort of like saying the Champions League shouldn’t be considered a European title because they don’t let the lower division champions compete - while true, letting them compete wouldn’t change the results.

    As a European, I feel like it's ridiculous that I even have to say this. Nobody argues that the NBA is the best basketball league in the world by far and therefore the NBA champion is probably the best basketball team in the world. However, this doesn't change the fact that it is arrogant for NBA champions to call themselves world champions. The one and only reason for that is that they didn't win against teams from the whole world but instead only against NBA teams. Yes, they would probably beat every single other team but the point is that they didn't even compete against them so they do not have the right to call themselves world champions. To make it clear, let's just use football, the most popular sport in the world, as a comparison. In Football, the best league is the Premier League, not by a margin as big as the NBA in basketball but it's growing every year. You said that the NBA is a very international league, but it is nothing against the Premier League where 66% of players are foreign compared to the NBA's 21%. So do the Premier League champions call themselves world champions? No. To be fair, there is still one competition which is considered better even though it is not a league: The UEFA Champions League, which is an international European Football Cup. So the Champions League winners call themselves world champions, right? No. The winners of the Champions League compete against the winners of the other continental cups in the Club World Cup and the winner is called the world champion. In 9/10 times, the Champions League winner wins the Club World Cup as well but the point is that they competed against the best of the rest of the world so they can rightfully call themselves world champions. If NBA champions had the desire to call themselves world champions, they could easily go to the FIBA and ask for them to create a basketball world cup. But they have no right to do something like that after winning the NBA. The same goes for the NFL and of course the MLB. I find it really hard to believe that so many American NBA players made fun of Noah after his interview because the things he said were absolutely right. It's not that difficult to understand, you can call yourself a world champion if you beat the best teams all over the world, what is there to argue about that? It is not a coincidence that no foreign NBA player commented on this. It's nothing more than common sense to understand that Noah's statement is absolutely true. This wouldn't have even been a debate in Europe. Americans often don't seem to understand that there is more in the world than the US and they are not the center of the world...

      Who cares if your arrogant when in reality you truly are better then everyone else. If the Denver Nuggets were to play the best teams of every country they would win every single one, because the NBA is the pinecal of basketball. Is Noah Lyles arrogant because he's saying he's the fastest man alive even though he hasn't raced every single person in the world? No, he's not arrogant in saying that and he doesn't have to race every single person in the world to prove he's the best in the world. It's the same for the NBA champions, there's no way any other team beat's the Denver Nugget's, and if American NBA player's truly cared about the olympics as much as they did about the NBA championship, they would never lose a gold medal either because even though the best player in the leauge right now is European, there is a larger amount of American Basketball players that are better then the world. So I really don't give a shit if other countries are pressed about it and I don't think it's arrogant of NBA teams to name themselves the best when it's a clear fact that they are, just as Noah Lyles is clearly the fastest man alive.

And there is really no need to call yourself world champion anyway. Just do it like they do in football/soccer. Also the point about the league having more and more non-American players and that they make up a lot of the best players in the league including the last five mvp winners doesn't really help the argument because it just shows that the talent outside of America is steadily growing and I would say catching up as well.

    In soccer they don't just have a World Cup but they also have a Club World Cup where the best teams of every continent plays a small tournament to prove who is the best in the world . The European team is always the favorite team because they are the best but that doesn't mean they can just ignore inferior competition from other continents and even prior to that they have to win against other countries in Europe to see whos best in that continent.

      Americans mix up the titles of „best team“ with „world champs“. This is two different teams. The letter requires you to win a tournament that offers the world championship as the price.

      Think it’s more foolish to act as if the Olympics aren’t where you go to prove you are the best in the world aka world champions America is playing the game and now people are scared or what gonna say they aren’t the best or earned the Gold 😂 or the fact is if Germany is the best they should win gold ...right .......🗿 in Paris vs USA playing serious lastly be it reigning Gold medalist or the day they win it stays the same as usual (dumbest shit I heard latest Gold winner isn’t the best after proving it 😅)

      He didn't do that at all. It's called the "National" Basketball Association because it was originally founded as an American league. But 1/4 of the league is international, and it's hands down the best league in the world, and it's not even close.
      The argument that they aren't technically world champions because they never played the games is preposterous. Let me demonstrate: would the Denver Nuggets also need to beat every grade school team in the world to prove they are "world champs"?

      @@jasjfl How can you be champion if you didn't play the games? There's a difference between being "the best team in the world", which the NBA champions are, and being "world champions". Team USA are world champions, not Denver. You don't need to beat every team in the world, but you need to win a tournament or competition where the best teams from everywhere in the world had an opportunity to participate. For example, soccer has the club world cup where the winners of the continental competitions face off. Every team in the world in the highest division can theoretically qualify for that tournament, so the winner is the world champion.

But a series, never. If Denver (in a hypothetical world club tournament) and team USA both won championships in the same year then who is world champion? If Denver played a team with all the rest of the best players in the world they would surely lose. This is all semantics. Everyone knows Denver is the best club team in the world easily. This whole thing is contrived to be some stupid thing about Americans being obnoxious. I’m no nationalist, I don’t even like America all that much. This whole point about them needing to beat vastly inferior teams is just stupid as fuck.
