Id want a NBA Championship more than I want a Olympic Gold due to the difficulty of winning a finals series and how it affects my legacy as a player.

However, it doesn't mean Id take the Gold Medal for granted. Id work just as hard and remain just as focused to help represent my country.

Id be a player who focuses on the present so during Olympics Id covet a Gold Medal just as much as Id want a title during the NBA season.

we have won plenty of times, even if u.s. doesnt win they are always the favorite, but my mavs have never won. if u.s. wins its more like "they better had" but if mavs win its like "finally"


and i would care more if nba players werent used, being i could care less for any of the players on the team because of who they play for, and it would make the games more interesting in my opinion. i know there are flaws to that idea but i would actually watch it that way.

I think USA players might prefer an NBA title, but the international ones would prefer a gold medal (because that means to beat USA).

i agree with bender

u cant take away championships from players. u cant take them rings away

gold medals are for track and field and swimmers. doesnt matter much for basketball

An NBA Championship by far. Dont even believe people are saying Gold Medal(well I do, but yeah).

For a NBA Chip you gotta go through 82 regular season games, against other tough challenges and close games with basketball being played at the highest level in the world. Then gotta go through all the playoffs.

So much heart and passion is put into a Chip.

But with Gold Medals, people basically know USA are just gonna rip through the competition. Its not even a challenge. Victories by 40 to 50 points. Too easy for them.

They only get like 2 or 3 hard games. Compared to an NBA season where everygame is hard.

EDIT: Not tryna bring down the Gold. Its an awesome achievement, and only comes around every 4 years. But still, lol.

I would say NBA title but that's just me..

[Jayc15]

i would go for a medal..because it's what everyone is waiting for...NBA titles aren't that important but your name and ur hard word dedication lives on as being a legend..for example John Stockton never won a championship but how many times does he come in our mind, when there other players like him were trying to compare too..
