"I love the U.S... but that ain't the world!" ❌ Noah Lyles throws shade at the NBA's 'world champions'

I have to watch the NBA Finals and they have world champion on their heads. World champion of what? The United States? Don’t get me wrong. I love the U.S. at times. But that ain’t the world.... We are the world. We have almost every country out here fighting and thriving and putting on a flag to show that they are represented. There ain’t no flags in the NBA.

Exactly, and it dates to decades back when The sport was less popular around the world. But even with the popularity it enjoys today around the world, the NBA is absolutely the top league with nothing even remotely close to it. The NBA champ is the world champ.
