FIBA Released New Schedule - No Team USA/NBA Players If They Don't Agree To It

[EnoughSaid]

These tournaments lose all sense of pride and legitimacy if NBA players don't participate. No point in even tuning in.

Actually one of the smartest posts this week.

NBA is the gleaming gold standard against which all other leagues and tournaments should be measured.
I wish, that Euroleague would one day be half as good as NBA is now, but for that to happen, they need to follow the NBA's success model in the closest way possible.

it's mostly fool's gold tbh. virtually every rule of the last decade has been worthless and weak and directly hurts the game of basketball.

Any reports on what the USA will do? Send out college kids?
