USA basketball is more like a TV Show than an actual sport. I'm not really a fan of basketball myself but sometimes players in the states are too overpraised and would turn into a celebrity which doesn't make sense anymore. More entertainment and money that the actual sport value.

That´s an interesting opinion. From what I have seen so far, sport (especially basketball) in the US is really much more about show than it´s in Europe but the NBA is still considered the best basketball league in the world where only the best players can play so in terms of the actual athletic skills, I think the NBA should still be better than any European league. But it would be great to see how the American teams would deal with the frenetic atmosphere in some of the European arenas, playing against the home teams :)
Must be with the fact that US is very influential when it comes to this sport. But I agree, it would be interesting for them to play against each other in different homecourts and how would the audience react
Right ;)
