I think the talent stuff is over thinking it.
It's the rules, different rules emphasize different skills, and de-emphasize different weaknesses.
Pau Gasol, Kelly Olynyk, Luis Scola
Have always been amazing FIBA player, because their skills (shooting, passing, feel for the game)
are even more valuable under FIBA rules.
while their weaknesses, defensive mobility. are less of a problem.
the lower levels of talent has an impact, but I think it's way less than you are describing.

Not a crazy concept. Different rules, different spacing. Harder doesn’t make it better.

And on the other side of the token, it’s way harder for guys like Luka and Joker, and even Yanni to play defense in the NBA than it is in Europe.
Different games.

It’s hard for 90% of European guards to become really good players over here. Like we can do this back and forth. Let FIBA be FIBA. Let the league be the league

Jahlil Okafor should have gone to Europe,
he was basically unstoppable on he FIBA youth level.

Why he mention his teammate but not Luka?
Luka generally ducks good defenders like Pat. his L1 button is worn out.

The Kings are interesting. They have a ton of offensive talent, ranked bottom in defense last year, and brought in a defensive coach to remedy that. To me, it looks like Brown is setup for failure.

His offense has never been the problem in any league
They didn’t have a single role player with this mindset last year. Hilarious looking back at it

They’re gonna miss everything this year & next and probably lose Sabonis to UFA
Brilliant GMing over there

It’s def harder to score when 4 players are sitting in the paint waiting on you.
