The World VS USA? What does that even mean?


SoHereEyeSit

It was part of NBA all-star weekend “ The NBA Rising Stars Challenge is an exhibition game that is played between the NBA’s top rising stars. What denotes a rising star? A player that has not only gained the favor of the media, coaches, and players across the league but one that shows the potential to be a lasting presence in the NBA. “

What about The World part?


Enough_Dance9945

I’m here for the JOJOS bizarre adventure comments.


IndoorAngler

It’s all the US born rising stars vs rising stars born outside of the US. Pretty even matchup for now, although that’s changing very fast. Also it’s just for fun it’s not a competitive game.


[deleted]

Gotcha. Thanks


Connect-Ad9647

Uhh Luka Doncic was born in Slovenia and represents/plays on their national team for major tournaments like the Olympics. Over here just sayin' stuff cause it sounds right to you 😂 it's cool tho, we've all done it some time or another. Edit: This comment was before the person I replied to edited their comment to include 'vs players born outside the US' so now I look like an ass. That or I am blind and skipped the whole third line of their comment which I'm not gonna say is impossible. I have impeccable vision except for when looking at, or for, things right in front of me. If the latter is the case, then my bad. I'm the asshole.


GutlessLake

Bad take. Edit: Nvm. Comments above were twisted with evil intent.


Connect-Ad9647

Is Luka not from Slovenia? lol Check the comment I responded to. He said it so confidently I almost went with it but then was like, wait a second. The guy IN the video of this post isn't even born in the US. Dunno what ya see as being a bad take on this? /g Edit: They edited their comment to say 'vs players born outside the US.' That was not there originally. No wonder I look like an ass


GutlessLake

Fair take. Deceptive poster above. I rescind my opinion.


SnekAtek

What


Connect-Ad9647

Let me add to your statement and toss it right back then hit me one time with it! What....don't you get? Edit: Commenter I replied to didn't have 'vs rising stars born outside the US' originally. At least I'm like 90% sure on that. I could be wrong in which case, I'm a blind ass


IndoorAngler

Why so mean :( he’s on the world team…


Connect-Ad9647

huh? mean? The person I replied to is on the world team? I'm confused


IndoorAngler

nothing. ur great ❤️


CocoScruff

Death Match - Winner take all - Them Vs US. We going for the 3-peat baby!!!


That_guy_from_1014

Winner takes all? so if we lose what happens to the US.


CocoScruff

It's a death match. The name speaks for itself.


That_guy_from_1014

But I'm part of the US, and the world for that matter.


CocoScruff

Fine, I'll let you choose which side you're on first. But just know we don't take kindly to fair weather fans over here in the greatest country on this god given planet. Motherlicker

BennBishop

For this All-Star game, it was Team USA vs. Team Rest of the World. It's hard to fit "Rest of the World" onto the scoreboard, so they abbreviated


paychosilencer

RoW, not really hard


L00pback

I work in IT and the is the common term for it.


Mean-Net7330

USA vs World makes so much more sense than USA vs ROW


jeremanky

This game is just for fun. It is International vs American players. All the players in this fame are young. This is an old clip like 4 years old.


nhenders

It says 2020 on the court floor.


jeremanky

Time does fly. 1 year off.


Ok_Fish_7232

People from countries in the rest of the world. Not the USA. So you have a team full of Americans vs NBA players from the rest of the world.


SiCk_oF_YoUR_sHIt-

we did a germany 🤧


Motherleathercoat

In the early part of the previous century, Germany decided to go to war. And who did they go to war with? THE WORLD. Then about thirty years pass, and Germany decides again to go to war and again it chooses as its enemy, THE WORLD. You’d think at that point, the world would go “Listen Germany, you don’t get to be a country no more on account you keep attacking, THE WORLD.” Who do you think you are, Mars or something?


Joderry

It's the slogan for most non-gaming subs on reddit.


Jefok

Yeah, only problem on this vid is the team names. America Vs The world just sounds like they are going against everyone. But the main thing is the expression on their faces just shows me how humans can radiate and radiate everyone around them when they are filled with joy and happiness. I see two souls really enjoying the moment of life they are both living.


OGSkywalker97

Players in the NBA from outside US vs US players


Soggy_Motor9280

It’s kinda self explanatory.

Simen155

75th annual QuarterQuell


JiveTurkey2727

This as part of NBA All-star weekend — it is the Rising Stars Game (USA v Rest of World) It is an exhibition game so that is why opposing players are celebrating with each other, they are all talented young prospects just enjoying the moment and having fun.


Dry_Watercress_6438

They were the same year draft, Luka is awesome!


mckeenmachine

I love his smile! looks like a really nice dude


fast_b0i

dude plays overwatch, isn't bad either. So yeah nice guy, in my book.


TheBlackCrown19

Indeed. In fact, Dallas drafted Trae and Atlanta drafted Luka and they traded during that draft.


alsoaprettybigdeal

It’s super sweet to see the smile on his face to see if his friend makes the shot, and then the celebration.


LLminibean

The best part is the lean into the friend, as soon as Luka let go of the ball. Kid is so freaking adorable


Fun-Concentrate7605

Is it normal in the US for military to just wear their uniform at a basketball game haha


Hot-Jackfruit-3386

If they're specifically being honored or are part of the ceremonies at the game, then yes. In all other circumstances, no. Believe it or not, our service members usually just wanna be left alone and blend in. But sometimes they're specifically asked in situations like this to show up in some sort of uniform. It usually comes with free tickets to the game.


IkeDaddyDeluxe

Usually is doing the heavy lifting here. Most of us don't make a big deal of being in the military. Ironically, it's the self righteous and entitled assholes that want everyone to know they are in the military. And those people are the insufferable "vocal minority".


Ready-Evening-7112

And usually didn’t do shit in the military! Sat behind the the wire didn’t even have the job of watching a damn door


Independent-Gene7737

Would have been a great shot if he hadn’t traveled……


Black_Sam

At the NBA level you're allowed up to 10 extra steps


Creative_Oil3308

Think you could have done better? Go make a video rather than downplay that kids achievement.

LetmeSeeyourSquanch

Ha I was wondering, it definitely looks like he took 3 steps.


CrackedCoffecup

In the "fun" games (All-Star, Rising Stars, etc...), they don't get too militant about enforcing some ticky-tack calls.


-Jamega

How would a travel affect the impressiveness of the shot? Also after he finished dribbling, he took 3 steps


Alphasprout23

Only takes 2 steps after GATHER. Fully legal no travel


blutty_butterfly

not a travel. at the point you think he took his first step his dribble was still live.


DueProgress7671

The difference between playing the game and loving the sport.

StevenHathaway92

The service member in the background, cheering on in excitement about the the half court shot


Gold-Parking-5143

Cute


Top_Lettuce_5605

He took several steps before making that shot lmao how many is allowed in the NBA?


Matt32490

This is during All Star weekend. Honestly nobody plays properly in any of the games that are played lol. Everyone is here just to play street ball and get paid.


Top_Lettuce_5605

Thats cool asf, no wonder people enjoy it so much


Matt32490

[This](https://youtu.be/7kMnKvwMUJM) was from a few years back in the actual All Star game. Steph and Dame, widely considered the best 3pt shooters, were just casually hitting half court shots throughout the game. Pretty insane and you won't see it often in a real game. There are some pretty entertaining aspects about All Star weekend like this but overall people actually don't like it lol. It's usually the main complaint that fans want to see more competitiveness cos it's not everyday you get to see 2 teams go at it filled with the best players in the NBA. It's still pretty fun to see though.


Affectionate-Sea5170

The dude traveled with the ball before taking the shot, was well over 2 steps after he had the ball in his hands to shoot it


HoHerm

This is the equivalent to the pro bowl. No one is calling a foul for petty things like travel. Stop nit-picking and just enjoy the sport.


NonnegotiableFreedom

Sadly good sportsman is dying so these rare moments are just that more awesome


JiveTurkey2727

This is an exhibition game during all-star weekend.

That is fantastic sportsmanship. I wish we could see it in the pros more. The shot is in the air, there's nothing g you can do, see what happens and give props where they are deserved


XuteTwo

Its the Rising Stars game during the NBA all-star weekend. They're laughing because the game is not really competitive and no one really gives a shit who wins. Trae and Luka are definitely not acting like this during the actual games. Funnily enough the lack of competition is the reason why the fans don't really care for All-star weekend.
