so if you were about to play a team that you never heard of, you wouldn't at least look them up is what you're telling me? Nothing to do with basketball or sports. But as an intelligent curious human being, you wouldn't look them up?

yall supporting ignorance and that's the shyt I don't like.
Like I said why they ask cousins about Slovenia but they won't ask the Slovenia players about kentucky?
U think they watched drummonds gamed At Connecticut? Or do u think they watched some of the footage from the gamed Slovenia has already played?

I realize you wanna make a point, but again are you telling me that you're about to play a team with Slovenia across their jerseys. You aren't going to be curious enough to google them to see what they about?

tell me you wouldn't and i'll leave this thread alone.

Europe has so many countries unless you have some sort of ties to the country, why would he know where a smaller eastern European country is?

You don't, but there is no reason to be so defensive about it and it is perfectly ok not to know.
It is really strange to get this as some geography test specially meant for Americans...

What a celebrity knows about our country is a typical question all famous people get when they have to deal with ex Yugoslavian countries, and it is not to shame anyone. It is exactly because we are small eastern European counties that are usually neglected on a big scale, that had lot of wars and problems, and still exist on the world stage in various sports despite the problems...
Just like Slovenians, in Serbia we are proud of our basketball, since it makes a country of 6 million people somewhat famous around the world, and maybe someone knows where we are because of it. Btw if Yugoslavia stayed together as a team we would have certainly a team fighting for a medal now...

Our reporters usually ask the question to all famous foreign players from big countries.
Yes, Parker, Gasol and Dirk were also the victims of this line of questioning... Our public likes to know the answer, and every now and then someone has a cool story that reveals his connection with our small country.
Like Batum, he said that he visited Novi Sad as a kid for a youth camp (a rather small city, and that is really cool for Serbians to hear) and that Bodiroga was his idol (our great player that never played in NBA and it was cool that he knew about an old Serbian legend).
Or Masai Ujiri last year had a cool story about visiting a fellow Nigerian that played in Serbia, and that he came to his friend's place too late when the guy was already sleeping, so he spent the night wandering the streets of Belgrade...

You guys are being too defensive and sensitive about this question...
