USA is tied for first place most wins in FIBA and they do it using 4th string NBA players.

Americans care about the NBA and the Olympics. So sure, the world can beat a c-squad American pro team at a continental or world championship or in qualifiers, but we don't really give a fuck about those and it's not remotely comparable to when everybody brings their A-game.

And hell, oftentimes we send B-squads to the Olympics and almost always still win those, too.

Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less.

USA cares more about olympics than FIBA world cup in terms of international basketball

Easy to answer, TC, but hard to really get.

We are indoctrinated.

The best player on this year's FIBA team (Anthony Edwards) would be like 6th best or so if the US sent their best players.

Of course even with their best players, other countries can still put up a tough fight against them. But it's not really that embarrassing for what is essentially their B/C team to lose in FIBA.
