FIND RESOURCES, BUY T-SHIRTS & MORE: WWW.SPORTSANDTHEREAL.TV Welcome back to Sports & The Real Sh*t!We hear it all the time now - "Europeans are taking over the NBA." While it's obvious that the best players in the league were not born in the U.S., no one seems to be providing the answer as to why that is happening. We know there's something wrong, but no one is willing to say what that is and what can be done to fix it.In this episode, I give my thoughts on how we went from 20 or so international players in the NBA in 1992 to over 120 on opening night in 2023. There are several reasons for that and they all seem to point back to one thing...the NBA itself.KEY HIGHLIGHTS: 16:51 - It's easier for Euros to succeed in the NBA than before 51:39 - The NBA has neglected US youth development 1:07:05 - The impact of Euros taking over and what American kids can do to keep upMUSIC BY: Mat JeaniusFOLLOW SPORTS & THE REAL SH*T:YOUTUBE: https://youtube.com/@sportsandtherealTWITTER | https://twitter.com/sportsnrealpod TIKTOK | https://tiktok.com/@sportsandtherealpodINSTAGRAM | https://instagram.com/sportsandtherealpodSPOTIFY | https://open.spotify.com/show/5JQU9z0bLGxemMDjEQqRWiAPPLE PODCASTS | https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sports-the-real-sh*t/id1672872510
