WBC had 4 world class teams: Japan, USA, Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic
had many decent dark horse teams like Mexico, Cuba, Canada, South Korea
FIBA has a regressed USA and Canada…that’s it
In fact Canada is the only team that seems to be getting better

It’s because the stars participated in the WBC
Put it like this…28 players made All-NBA the last 3 seasons, of those 28 only four are participating in the World Cup: Shai, Luka, Gobert and KAT
I’ve posted about this before but anyone watch Japan hoop is exactly how these dudes play pick up ball. No passing, no D, and jacking up an off balance hero ball ass three 10 seconds into the set
. MFs have their high schoolers playing with a shot clock and FIBA 3 point line and they wonder why they can’t get kids to sign up for basketball.
Yo, that's exactly how Filipinos play pick-up ball too.
There's a massive community of them near my job abroad and they all hoop or talk hoops but jesus christ it's appalling to play with themThey all in reasonable shape but only play 2-3 zone and don't run back on defense
And of course they'll shoot the "open 3" on the 2 on 1 (or 4 on 1) fast break
Honestly when i was hoopin at the UofH rec centers long before Curry was in the league, the asians had their courts (away from where the brehs and d1 players held court) and watching them they played the same erratic style. I'm talkin 2006
Yea... NBA needs to go-on ahead and bush that win-loss season series stuff and instead make the tiebreakers be about point differentials
"Tied in the standings? You won 2 of our 3 match ups? Yea well we won our 1 by 50
"but nah
that would serve no purpose other than making the point spreads even worse
