Well, it's a crappy one, for sure. But that being said, it is a client that use the NNTP protocol to exchange information with NNTP servers nonetheless. It's just that us that use proper news clients think it's crap :)

Well, I can't say I know just how the NNTP part of Google Groups works, to be sure. Maybe you have more information about that than me. I'm just saying there IS an NNTP part :)
