Well, you may as well be a fan of Noah Lyles, because he has guts dude is crazy bucking up against the NBA!! and he has the accolades to back it up 100 m champion and 200 m champion
As a Jamaican who was raised in America, I was always baffled by the ego of calling themselves the world. By their logic LaLiga should be called the World League. We stand with Lyles...😊
Noah is speaking god's truth World champion is competition among the world and different from American champion competing among American teams Big yuh self brethren
As an American, I know that we suffer from American Exceptionalism: We lie to ourselves, we believe the lie, then, we defend said lie to the death. In America, we live in the world of make-believe. At least I can admit this personality flaw that a lot of us have. Believe me, I've been going back and forth with other Americans on this topic. I don't see how it's that hard to understand that the NBA champion isn't an actual world champion. Great video. I love your show.
The billionaires of the NBA dont want any competitor in their system , otherwise they would loose much money . They make their own rules not international Fiba rules and if they loose to other countries they say we are not adopted to the Fiba system. So why did they change the international rules , because they want to have an exclusive way to play basketball, and to sell it to the whole world , overcoming the interests of all nations in the world. If an NBA team can call itself worldchampion, then with the same right Chinas tabletennis players can call themselves worldchampions without playing international. Because a chinese champion wins everything ....but the most important points are not mentioned here, it is all about money, the billionaires who own the nba teams make the rules, they want to expand, do not want a public competition but a privat one . Fiba is official, international, NBA ist privat and national , thats all ..... the same system we can find in the finance world, few big players rule the world, overcome national interests and of course interests of their people. By the way, most NBA players earn to much money, but this is a problem in all sports ... and the last point, who on earth changed the worldchampionship to worldcup ?? It must be somebody from NBA to minimize the importance of the turnament ....
The premier league is regarded as the best football league in the world, but when Man city wins they are premier league champions, not world champions, even though they may be the best team in the world.
Its like comparing a comparison of a ferrari and a bike and a ford truck with a ford truck like no non NBA team have. Chance of beating but in soccer obviously its way closer
Not sure why some people don't understand... "Best team in the world" ≠ "World Champion" Besides, I would argue that a "properly selected" US National Team will beat the NBA Champion. For Football/Soccer, the "best team in the world" is likely the Champions League winner, but the "World Champion" title goes to the FIFA World Cup winner (i.e. an internationally recognised competition for national teams).
I love this echo chamber of cognitive dissonance... Let me get this straight, Noah is right for voicing his opinion on a league that had nothing to do with his current situation.. But the people he "called out" for no reason who were minding their business are being inappropriate in retort ....and Gordon was parroting how silly Noah statement was
Kevin Durant is not to smart clearly he can’t comprehend what Noah lyles said . He did not say that the nba is good he is saying the nba champions is not world champions
@@richardgraham4827 Corruption?!? What are you talking about? Who said anything about corruption? The argument is about what constitutes a world championship. Nothing more. Try to focus.
NBA stands for National Basketball Association. Australia has the best Rugby league in the world but they dont call their winners world champions. The English Premier League is the best soccer league in the world but they dont call their winners world champion. Everybody around the world knows what world champion means except America.
This is NOT a debate. This is ignorance of the English language. This is INDISPUTABLE fact:: The NBA is an INTRAnation it is NOT an INTERnation competition. International means different nations are competing against each other which is NOT the case in the NBA.
Lyles is right, why are we debating this. The NBA have a handful of international players. This past world Championship had over 179 nations representing. The NBA is mostly domestic, therefore you cannot say you are world champion when you did not compete against the world. As for the Olympics not my country have a competitive basketball program.
I ABSOLUTELY agree with Noah Lyles ,NOAH LYLES IS THE BEST ON THE PLANET ,AND THE FASTEST MAN IN THE WORLD. ONLY USAIN BOLT CAN MATCH LYLES ,BOLT IS WORLD RECORD HOLDER IN 100M,200M AND 4X100 RELAY. LYLES AND BOLT ARE SPRINT KINGS.
Noah Lyles is 100% correct! Full stop! “It doesn't make sense for an NBA team to call themselves World Champions. I don't remember anybody playing outside our borders to get that tag”. Greg Popovich Greg Popovich said this 10 years ago. How come no one called him out and tried to belittle Popovich, as some NBA players are arrogantly doing to a true global superstar? Does it have anything to do with skin color? Just asking for a friend.
to be honest im just knowing for the first time that the NBA call themselves world champions, NBA stands for national basketball association, and not World Basketball Association.
I'll support the facts the NBA champion is the *National Basketball Association Champion*, not the *world champion* NBA commisioner shall get rid the word world of their title.
The MLS champions is not called the World football or soccer champions because the World Cup event decides that every four years! Ditto , the NHL champions are not world champions given that the annual IIHF Championships decides that!! FIBA decides the country that has the best team in basketball and not the NBA league! The list continues! I am an American citizen but Noah Lyles is not only right but a bona fide track champion on the USA team that recently won the World Track and Field Championships!!
To Stephen A. Smith and all N B A fans , Noel Lyles is totally right. The N B A, N F L, mager league base ball. Are no world champion. You are all fooling yourself. Spain just won the women soccer that's a world champion, Noel Lyles is totally right.
I believe Noah Lyles do can dunk and I am do 100 % sure Noah Lyles can plays bball. No way Aaron Gordon can smoke Noah Lyles on 200m. I will salute Aaron Gordon in case he can go hit sub 23 s on 200m track.
Why did he mention it in the first place.....he did it in a critical manner.....why didn't he stick to the event in progress.....it's a matter of mining his own business.....he was too much into himself of winning the gold medals......he should mind his own business
The NBA need to make some real serious changes, if they want to be a more exciting,I would like to see the top 16 teams make the playoff and the number one play number 16 number to play number 15 and so on. Miami Heat was in the finals and I don’t think they should’ve been there because the best two teams are not playing make the playoffs and they just play the best play 16 second best plays number 15 and so on Miami Heat made a finals last year but they weren’t the second best team in the NBA they probably wouldn’t even be in the top four. I can easily see the Lakers or Golden State Warriors playing Denver nuggets in the finals, let’s have Allstar Weekend take the best African players put them on one team. The best European players put them on another team and you can even put an all Canadian team because we have enough Canadian players to make a team and all the very best American players, let’s see who win that battle. Even if you form the whole country of Yugoslavia back together and they put all Croatian, Montenegro and Serbia and all those guys together, those guys are good enough to beat the United States team, quite easily, because all the best players in the NBA right now in my eyes are all European players are foreign born players. It’s time the American boys get off your ass and start dominate again if you can or maybe the world has caught up to the American players
Most NBA players & some of their pundits are so ignorant about the word “world”. Just cos most int players play in the NBA doesn’t mean winning 1 makes u a WC. @ManUtd @FCBayern @realmadriden don’t call themselves WC cos the won their leagues n oh they have int players too
Funny they NEVER come out to watch the track and field championship but they come out for his TRUTHFUL statement. NBA and NFL IS NATIONAL GAMES NOT WORLD! Noah Lyles sorry you just ruined any sponsorships that was looking at you!
Lets see, you sprint for 10 seconds in the 100 and 21 seconds and you sure sure as hell don't do it 82 times per year...It's a different beast....But you're right who cares...
Totally agree. 💯 If we view it from the MLB perspective, everyone will agree that Noah Lyles is correct. Just because it is a different sport, suddenly people become stupid.
Sorry to your guess, but the European Football Cup is the most competitive league in the world and not the world cup, the European champion does not call themselves the best in the world. America has a winner mentality, still the NBA is not the World Champions.
NBA champions are world champs because there's no other club team in the world that could beat them. Primier league champs could lose to a bundasliga team, a la liga team, or an Italian series A team. But name me one club basketball team right now that could beat the Denver nuggets, I'll wait
Great video now I want to see the lowest ranking NBA team play your champions. When the world is trying to come to you then it’s ok to claim a world title. He spoke out of pocket and should’ve been humble at that moment but he chose to show his ass.
😂😂😂 geeez! Gordon wasn't even serious! But it's funny though , you have a track and field runner that wants more shine on this sport so he downplays and berates passively and humorously another sport from his native country. If this isn't a level of crab in the barrel. You could have just picked up gia sport gave Frost see yourself but you had to make sure that you pulled someone else down and big dump yourself so be noticed. And the thing is you would talk about you are a world champion , but claim you're not getting recognized? But you're a "world champion!* I get it America should have changed since the 1950s and they didn't change the title that bothers everybody and should be put in place to put NBA and Americans in place from said ignorance to be politically correct amongst everyone. But honestly leaves all over the world come to the NBA and they realize how easy it is not to get into there, he'll you even have people who aren't from this country who can't make it and have to go overseas the play. That's how hard it is to get into this league that is probably one of the stipulations that many feel make it the best league in the world because there's harsh requirements to get in there and everybody isn't talented enough to make it. But clearly that is not enough you have to stamp FIBA on it for it to be official. God forbid we put NBA world champions or they make a NBA world league. But here's the thing one of those championships will you see world champion. Lol! So perhaps it is all an opinion but a lot of people in the world share the opinion that the NBA is one of the greatest leagues in the, so it's not that we're on our own coattails why this large imperialistic and So called exceptionalism type attitude and ego that everyone else is committed to believing. But clearly as the proverb says or the same one less ,"the proof is in the pudding!"
I would respect Noah if he had the balls to keep that energy with NFL. But he didn’t dare speak about Americas game. The white media wouldn’t tolerate that 5:16 you’ll forgive me if I don’t have sympathy but Noah started this 🤷
Why is what Americans call themselves so important to you though? Does it negatively impact you? Does it negatively impact Jamaica? So what’s the point of these conversations? Besides taking attention away from track and field?
Well if the nba is the best league in the world and everyone around the world hopes to make it there, then yea they are world champs, only thing is that the business that has the best league is just located in the U.S. if u had a gaming company or league or club etc, that is and has the best gamers in the world in a certain country compared to other counties, wouldn't u be considered the best gamers in the world ?
Everybody would love to play soccer in europe and when they play the champions league they dont call them selves world champions even though its the best teams in the world playing that cup its common sense there not world champions no matter how good the league might be
@@tipsylok7679 I understand that but just cause the Olympics have countries competing with each other dont mean the winners (of a team sport) have the best team assembled to be truly a ''world champion " cause they only select or get players (if a player chose to play) that qualify for that country (citizenship or residency), where as in the nba, teams are assembled to compete at a high level with high level players. U can skip the Olympics if u want to, may be frowned upon but in nba, u loose money , way of life or maybe not much recognition. So it's kind of different when u looking at a team vs an individual event
@@timothyfoord6499 yea but some players have dual citizenship so still doesn't prove to be a true world champs with the best team assembled. Only by technicality cause the Olympics is set on a global stage. Like if someone can bench press let's say 1000 lbs and it's on record domestically, do I need show that in the Olympics to be considered best bench presser in the world when I kno on record from other countries can't do that
Why is it hurting him though? If it bothers him so much, why is he watching the NBA? He's just very jealous. Moreover, when the US sends their best to FIBA they always win.
*American sports world championships is correct since the United States is in the world, professional sports leagues in the U.S. using the title "World Champions" and World Championship" is acceptable because participation of the entire world is not necessary needed for it be recognized as an event that took place IN the world. People are confusing the use of "World Champions" with participation or non-participation of the entire world, that isn't what it was meant to mean, World Champions was meant to indicate the crowing of a sports team as the only champions IN the world not the entire world of that particular sport. Winning a professional championship and claiming U.S. Football, Basketball or Baseball Champions would assume there are other football, basketball and baseball championships being held in other parts of the world, they are not.* EXAMPLE *If elephants only existed in Tanzania, Kenya, and Namibia and the oldest elephant is in Kenya, we can acceptably say that Kenya has the oldest elephant in the world, other countries in the world do not need to have elephants for that recognition to be made or for it to be true nor do we have to say Africa has the oldest elephant in the world, that would be implying elephants exist somewhere else in the world when they don't.*
Champions League in soccer.. With Bolt gone Lyles has appointed himself to raise the profile and popularity of T&F. If he has to be controversial to stir things up, he will be happy to oblige
NBA champions are world champs because there's no other club team in the world that could beat them. Primier league champs could lose to a bundasliga team, a la liga team, or an Italian series A team. But name me one club basketball team right now that could beat the Denver nuggets, I'll wait
Whiles it’s extremely unlikely that any other team could beat an NBA championship team, we would not know for certain until they’ve played them. Until NBA champs play INTERNATIONAL teams in an official capacity, they CANNOT call themselves ‘world’ champions
@@caleb3704 that's a weak argument, it's like saying until Noah races every countries top sprinter, he's not champ... It's unlikely any sprinter who may have missed the opportunity to be at these games would beat him but we'll never know.
Man City won the premier League and the champions League(by far the world most competitive competition) but they are not called " the world champion" even though they are considered "the best team in the world". They are just " European and national champions". City has to win FIFA club "world cup", which compete by the champions from all continents, South & North Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania to earn the title "world champion".
@@Santiago-07wckeo I get that, and I'd point out the reason man city would have to do that is because there's legitimate club competition out there in other leagues, it's not the same for NBA champs, and that's by a wide margin
@@BertrandAkuche bear in mind I didn’t say they have nba champs have to beat every nations best team to be considered world champion. What I’m saying is they should play in a league that is open to teams from all over the world and beat those teams. Now obviously there’s no such league established since the nba is only open to teams in USA and canada. Now TEAM USA is currently playing in the fiba tournament which is open to ALL NATIONS thus international. Now again not every single country may be represented but at least every country was given the chance. Should team USA win then TEAM USA would have officially earned the title world champions. Nba champions, regardless of them being the best team on paper are by definition, national champions and not world champions. Greg Popovich said this same things years ago. How is it soo hard to grasp this concept?
I agree with Noel Lyles a 100 percent.
NBA is national World Championship is universal
He does know that he competes in the summer when team USA Basketball is playing!!
I agree with Noah Lyles 1,000.000%
The statement is correct. The time and place was wrong.
Noah Lyles is not lying the nba is not the world it’s national not world
Although I am not a fan of Noah's, he is absolutely correct ( factual)in this instance.
Facts are stubborn things.
Do you always bring in biased support in such discussions?
Although I am not a fan????
Well, you may as well be a fan of Noah Lyles, because he has guts dude is crazy bucking up against the NBA!! and he has the accolades to back it up 100 m champion and 200 m champion

Well if the nba is the best league in the world and everyone around the world hopes to make it there, then yea they are world champs, only thing is that the business that has the best league is just located in the U.S. if u had a gaming company or league or club etc, that is and has the best gamers in the world in a certain country compared to other counties, wouldn't u be considered the best gamers in the world ?
Everybody would love to play soccer in europe and when they play the champions league they dont call them selves world champions even though its the best teams in the world playing that cup its common sense there not world champions no matter how good the league might be
@@tipsylok7679 I understand that but just cause the Olympics have countries competing with each other dont mean the winners (of a team sport) have the best team assembled to be truly a ''world champion " cause they only select or get players (if a player chose to play) that qualify for that country (citizenship or residency), where as in the nba, teams are assembled to compete at a high level with high level players. U can skip the Olympics if u want to, may be frowned upon but in nba, u loose money , way of life or maybe not much recognition. So it's kind of different when u looking at a team vs an individual event
World champion = best team in the world consisting of people from their actual nationality against other people of their actual nationality.
@@timothyfoord6499 yea but some players have dual citizenship so still doesn't prove to be a true world champs with the best team assembled. Only by technicality cause the Olympics is set on a global stage. Like if someone can bench press let's say 1000 lbs and it's on record domestically, do I need show that in the Olympics to be considered best bench presser in the world when I kno on record from other countries can't do that
But I understand the technical term of what u r saying tho
Why is it hurting him though? If it bothers him so much, why is he watching the NBA? He's just very jealous. Moreover, when the US sends their best to FIBA they always win.
*American sports world championships is correct since the United States is in the world, professional sports leagues in the U.S. using the title "World Champions" and World Championship" is acceptable because participation of the entire world is not necessary needed for it be recognized as an event that took place IN the world. People are confusing the use of "World Champions" with participation or non-participation of the entire world, that isn't what it was meant to mean, World Champions was meant to indicate the crowing of a sports team as the only champions IN the world not the entire world of that particular sport. Winning a professional championship and claiming U.S. Football, Basketball or Baseball Champions would assume there are other football, basketball and baseball championships being held in other parts of the world, they are not.*
EXAMPLE
*If elephants only existed in Tanzania, Kenya, and Namibia and the oldest elephant is in Kenya, we can acceptably say that Kenya has the oldest elephant in the world, other countries in the world do not need to have elephants for that recognition to be made or for it to be true nor do we have to say Africa has the oldest elephant in the world, that would be implying elephants exist somewhere else in the world when they don't.*

Break it down homie...Best response besides mine I've heard🤣😂🤣
Champions League in soccer.. With Bolt gone Lyles has appointed himself to raise the profile and popularity of T&F. If he has to be controversial to stir things up, he will be happy to oblige
So you’re saying if an English premier league team wins the league they are world champs?
NBA champions are world champs because there's no other club team in the world that could beat them. Primier league champs could lose to a bundasliga team, a la liga team, or an Italian series A team. But name me one club basketball team right now that could beat the Denver nuggets, I'll wait
Whiles it’s extremely unlikely that any other team could beat an NBA championship team, we would not know for certain until they’ve played them. Until NBA champs play INTERNATIONAL teams in an official capacity, they CANNOT call themselves ‘world’ champions
@@caleb3704 that's a weak argument, it's like saying until Noah races every countries top sprinter, he's not champ... It's unlikely any sprinter who may have missed the opportunity to be at these games would beat him but we'll never know.
Man City won the premier League and the champions League(by far the world most competitive competition) but they are not called " the world champion" even though they are considered "the best team in the world". They are just " European and national champions". City has to win FIFA club "world cup", which compete by the champions from all continents, South & North Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania to earn the title "world champion".
@@Santiago-07wckeo I get that, and I'd point out the reason man city would have to do that is because there's legitimate club competition out there in other leagues, it's not the same for NBA champs, and that's by a wide margin
@@BertrandAkuche bear in mind I didn’t say they have nba champs have to beat every nations best team to be considered world champion. What I’m saying is they should play in a league that is open to teams from all over the world and beat those teams. Now obviously there’s no such league established since the nba is only open to teams in USA and canada. Now TEAM USA is currently playing in the fiba tournament which is open to ALL NATIONS thus international. Now again not every single country may be represented but at least every country was given the chance. Should team USA win then TEAM USA would have officially earned the title world champions. Nba champions, regardless of them being the best team on paper are by definition, national champions and not world champions. Greg Popovich said this same things years ago. How is it soo hard to grasp this concept?
