Olympic Basketball

Started by Myth7 pages

Too much offense. They should have used a couple offensive minded people and surrounded them with defenders. Ben Wallace would be very useful in international play.

Del Harris? China? WTF? Thats got to be a joke.

nope i heard it the other day on Pardon The Interuption (PTI) on EPSN

Thats really weird. Is he a citizen?

WHAT?!? street ball is crap?! granted, its not as good as the NBA, but nothing is, considering the NBA is the ultimate goal for any basketball player.

It is flashy and there are more turnovers than a bar be que, but thats because its more like entertainment. when you live in the ghetto and cant afford an NBA ticket, you go to a streetball game. All the players love th attention and are super-friendly with the fans, you get a fun show, and everyone has a good time.

NBA is official organized ball. Street ball is not much like it. It is still basketball though, and you shouldnt call something crap because its different.

i dont think he is but i was think about this the idea and i dont think you need to be a citizen to coach or play for a coutry....Duncan was born and i think he was raised in the virgin islands and thats not part of america and he's playing for us so go figure

The Virgin Islands are US territory.

are u sure? i thought it was great britain territory

They are known as the U.S. Virgin Islands so I'm pretty sure they are US territory.

i had to make sure i didnt dream it or some shit

I'm surprised they can do that. I guess its just athletes who have to be citizens.

i know that is crazy it doesnt make sense that you have to be a citizen to play but your dont have to be a citizen to coach

When do the Olympics start?

good question...i dont know

Reggie Miller might be on the team. YAY! 😱

where did u hear that?
