 It
did not surprise me at all when USA became the World champions again.
You have to understand that USA has the best basketball. It is the most
developed, there is millions invested in coaches, gymnasiums, trainers,
etc. There is no comparison. Can you imagine no American players
in the foreign leagues? In my opinion it would be a disaster and
boring. I really liked to see the European teams fighting for first
place. But unfortunately they are still too far from USA physically and
technically. There is so much passion and heart from the players around
the world but the talent is not there yet when compared to American
basketball players.
USA does not need foreign players to play in the NBA. It is more about
making money for the NBA. It is the business of getting ratings and
purchasing the NBA channel. When the NBA takes and develops foreign
players the locals in that country are more likely to purchase NBA
products and channels. Those import players take a lot of specialized
coaching to make them into the stars the NBA wants for their business.
For example China with the import of Yao Ming – The NBA has made
millions off the Chinese who are now passionate about their local star
playing in America.
The quality of basketball around the world is
getting better, no doubt. As countries invest in their basketball
programs, coaching, facilities it pays off. But still who wants to
purchase the basketball channel from any other country when they can
get the NBA channel? There is not comparison.
It was beautiful to see all the nationalities play against USA, learn
against USA and be satisfied with the results even when they lost. They
all seemed to appreciate the opportunity to play against the best.
