What a joke, i giess he thinks makin it to the nba is easy and u dont ha e to buss yo ass to make it. Smh
Wha type of world are we living in where KG and Noah are having civil conversation. Thatโs like getting Bird and Bill Laimbeer together in the same room ๐คฃ

This is very recent. I would say over the last 10 to 15 years the quality of US players coming into to league has gone down significantly while the international players are rising. Itโs now even difficult for a US player to win MVP in the league.
Why yo eyes so far apart cuh, they on yo gawdamn temple ๐
Some comments here think Noah's not good etc, but remember he was once a candidate for MVP, and also won DPOY as well with his other accolades. Despite that the bulls were not I'm rooting for, especially pre injury drose, their passion and energy to the game was there.
Heโs right. And youโre seeing it in the talent (Or lack thereof) in American players coming up right now. Tons of entitlement in these younger dudes and thatโs why so many foreign guys are catching up.
This guy is no one
I like how Joakim Noah who LITERALLY grew up in millionaire lifestyle talks about "being hungry" and acting like he grew up tough ๐
And when you try to instill that in them. Momma has a problem with it ๐ฎ
Definitely not the best coaching.
thAn not thEn.
He is on point!
โฆ.ur a LOSER yo talk talk talk all u did in the NBA and hate on GOAT James, u won NADA๐ฏโ๏ธ๐โฆ
They're taking our jobs

I agree. A lot of international players were already stars in their home countries, but they were unknown in the us and had to start from zero to prove themselves
Imagine how great our nation would be if everyone was grateful
Giannis and Jokic are the main example of this claim
I understand his point, but all that matters in the end is the win or the lose and 99% of the time itโs America on top
But they play uglier. Like paralyzed grandmas. Work itself is good. But the most important thing is Result.

Americans made the NBA what it is today. There are plenty of American kids that work hard, and they will continue to be the stars of the league.
Itโs not just related to basketball, itโs life in general. Itโs a generalized statement, but so much truth to it.
Ben Simmons – Uh excuse me?

They're generally better people. Americans are essentially the archetype for the selfish and narcissistic, and the model of modernity gone too far.
Okay but how about them free throws?
Bruh
Truly a bull
He's right.
Facts.
Iโm really disappointed by the media and scientific community. Any way you slice it this is a big story. It is 1 of 3 possibilities and all are news worthy.
1. He is personally lying. This is least interesting but with his rank/clearance it is still news worthy. I think this is the least li
2. He is either involved in or being used as a pawn in a major disinformation campaign. This is a big story, what would be the objective.
3. This is true and it would be the biggest story ever
Work harder โthanโ, come on now. You people only speak one language yet still fuck up the grammar.
Work harder than*** cmon now uploader
This is beautiful ๐๐๐๐
Two grown and blessed men having a great conversation.
Blah, blah, blah. Until the rest of the world consistently beats the US in international competitions, I don't want to hear about some fake narrative that foreign players work harder.
Why is he pretending he's from the hood? What a clown.
Bragger as his father
does he have down syndrome
I taught Joakim physical education from k to 7th….I told him that he should play basketball when he was in the 1st grade. Soon after, he would arrive 1 hr before school started to shoot basketball…….practically, every morning…..and yes, he has always had his motivation…..hell, he played pt. guard on the school's team that I coached as a 6th grader going against 8th and 9th graders. It didn't surprise me that he progressed once he arrived and played in the states. What surprised me the most was how tall he was! He had a normal height as a middle school kid.
But he always had this energy, drive and motivation.
Not as hungry as the "world". I guess the USA is from another planet.
What league is he talking about
โคโคโคโคโคโค
A part of me agrees with Noah. There is a bit of entitlement that exists within some segments of the US basketball community. But I'm also weary of this narrative that American players are loosing out to foreign competition in droves. It comes across as reactionary and hyperbolic when you consider that the bulk of the best players in the world are still produced by the US…we still win the majority of major tournaments in FIBA…for now. Currently, we're going through a generational shift, and the current crop of US stars aren't on par with pervious generations (or they're distracted, aka Ja Morent or Zion)…not for lack of trying. There are only so many Kobes and D-Wades in this world. Throw in the emergence of foreign talent and suddenly it appears the US is declining as a basketball playing nation.

Yeah nba players nowadays spoiled af cant even watch anymore
