NBA Is Really Overrated

Judging the NBA based on preseason games is ridiculous. The starters don't play much after half time and most of the veterans clearly don't give a crap about preseason. I agree that most of us underrate European basketball but once the NBA guys really get going they would blow the Euro teams out more often than not

Poor effort at a reverse troll, anonymous, kindly stick your head in a blender to improve the standard of this board.

The world is catching up, because global sport or world games are just that 'Played around the world'!

So, when we want to compare leagues we need to take into account many things, such as history, passion, professionalism, money, expertise and so on...

Look at how soccer (football in many parts of the world) is percieved as being the best in Europe, apologies to South America, but Europe is still the heartland of soccer.

Most teams, most stars, biggest crowds, most countries and the amount of money is obscene.

Yes, the USA, Asia, Africa, South America and other leagues like ours are slowly cacthing up, but Europe is still king.

So it is in basketball, the USA (the NBA) is still king for various reasons, not over rated IMO, just that it is still the biggest and best, but the world is slowly catching up, good on the rest of the world I say...

"I have watched the Philadelphia 76ers play against the Eurocup team Bilbao Basket (Eurocup is the level below Euroleague), and they needed help from the refs to win by 2 points."

OKC only just beat the 76ers so they must be shit also (albeit without Russel Westbrook)?

Wait, is 87% supposed to be bad?

Why would NBA teams care whether they won or not? Preseason counts for nothing.
