People are arguing 2 different things here.
Yes, Detroit are PROBABLY the best club team in the world right now. Feel free to call them the best CLUB team in the world. But that is not the same thing as World Champions.
Most of us Europeans are not debating that Detroit are probably the best club team in the world. We are simply arguing that you cannot be OFFICAL World Champions without some sort of World Competition being played.
The NATIONAL Basketball association is only open to teams from America and Toronto. Detroit have proved that they are the best of those teams. They can prove nothing more because they don't play against anyone else.
What if the Euroleague continues to get better, and (unlikely I know) actually becomes better than the NBA. WOuld you still call your National champions "World CHampions"?
