whats more important in basketball the world cup? or the olympics?

[Demis-11]

well...the olympic games have 12 teams while the world championships have 24...the olympics obviously receive more hype but the world championships have a greater diversity in teams and strength (since there are more teams)...

but according to FIBA...both are weighted the same based on podium finishing

[Super Shojaei]

ooh ok.
