Why didn't he dominate and win MVPS the same way he did for Euroleague?

Why didn't NBA MVP do shit in the second league of Europe?

that was a zombie for AI.

When we had a good player in his prime, he broke the scoring record and the team retired his jersey after 1 month.

Anthony Parker became a role player months after he won the Euroleague MVP.

That is the difference.

Probably for the same reason why he can't really get a job playing in any major basketball league.

He's broken down.

Also broke, but that's irrelevant.

cause the euroleague is nowhere near the NBA in terms of talent pool

Deron Williams NEVER played a Euroleague game in his life.

Anthony Parker won Euroleague MVP averaging 15 points a game. The next season he averaged 15 points a game in the NBA playoffs.

You are a LIAR.

I feel sorry for you Nba only fans because you are missing great basketball . I think Euroleague is better than Nba but that doesnt stop me from watching some Nba games . When I watch players playing great or doing a great move I never think aboute the league they play ( but when I wach Nba I do compare rules ) , I just admire the things I seen on the court . So what if Rose , Lebron , Kobe or Durant did some great move that would be travelling in Europe , they dont play there and its still a good move . The fans that only watch Nba , think good basketball is played only in Nba and that othere leagues are very bad dont know nothing aboute basketball .

Don't feel sorry for the NBA only fans my friend. They are NOT real basketball fans. They are just that - NBA ONLY fans. They know NOTHING about basketball and they are a blight on the sport and its real fans everywhere.

its easy to be mvp when youre against a bunch of nobody scrubs who'll get their asses kicked by americans come olympic time. even though theyve been playing together for years and team u.s.a. will have a few weeks practice. itll be comical.

SilkkTheShocker · 02-24-2012, 03:16 PM

Prime Anthony Parker wouldn't even be the best player in college basketball, yet he was a Euroleague MVP.

Haha exactly. Didn't the US just wipe the floor with that overseas talent a few years ago? Our C-team of Igoudala, Odom, and Gay was too much for them

That's freaking hilarious since,

1. Team USA has a longer prep time every summer than most other national teams and,

2. Team USA has NEVER faced a Team Europe (which is what you FALSELY imply by linking it to the Euroleague).

3. Team USA's core has been one of the longest tenured groups of all national teams in the WORLD, with core players being there since 2004/2006, and this according to you is "a few weeks".

4. Many other national teams switch out 5-8/9 players a tournament, and this you claim is "being together for years".

Yeah, you are nothing but a liar.

USA has never once beaten Europe. They have won and lost to single countries from Europe. The Euroleague is comprised of top players from EUROPE, not single countries.

Team USA would get demolished against an actual European wide team.
