Present the roster you expect your country will send to their designated 2024 FIBA

 

Women's Olympic Qualifying Tournament. Then present the roster you would LIKE

 

your country to send to their designated 2024 FIBA Women's Olympic Qualifying

 

Tournament. Finally, present your country's very best roster that they can send to

 

the 2024 Women's Paris Olympic Basketball Tournament.

 

I define success for a national team program as placing at or above your FIBA Rank-

 

ing in EVERY major Tournament.

 

Players with an asterisk do not have any or recent Team USA

experience.

:PUR:CAN qualify for the OQT through the Pan American POQT!

 

:CAN will play :ESP:HUN:JPN next February with three Olympic quotas up for grabs, while :PUR will play :CHN:NZL:FRA where two Olympic quotas will be awarded. 

What are CAN chances here, what do you think? 3 out of 4 is a great opportunity. Hope you don’t finish 4th ehh 😎

Might be on brand for us but there’s no way we lose to Hungary :p

According to another poster at another website:

 

So Canada have to finish top-three in a group with Spain, Japan and Hungary. Meanwhile all Puerto

Rico need to do is beat New Zealand. Canada may regret not finding a way to lose that game today...

 

Canada needed  a near A Team to beat an under-strength PR Team by a mere 9 points. I can tell you

right now Canada might not qualify for the 2024 Olympic Women's Basketball Tournament. And they 

most certainly will not medal at the 2024 Olympics. Canada's roster does not have ONE WNBA All-

Star, much less a world class player. Canada has a good jockey {Victor LaPena} riding an old sway-

back horse destined for the GLUE factory.

Hungary is most likely going 0-3 at the OQT, don’t see any way in which they advance over any of Canada, Spain, or Japan. 
 

Canada placed 4th at last years FIBA Women’s World Cup, and although they lost by 30 to Australia (in the bronze medal match), Lauren Jackson scored 30  points in her final international appearance. Plus, they had a bad game. 
 

To count them off as a medal contender at this stage is ridiculous. Puerto Rico is a solid team.  There’s a number of teams that could potentially advance to the knockout stages but could just as easily bomb out during the group stage. All about who shows up on the day.

We may not have a WNBA all-star, but we have some great players on our team.  Kia Nurse, Natalie Achonwa, Nirra Fields, Bridget Carlton, Kayla Alexander, Laeticia Amihere, Shay Colley etc. Not to mention young talent Aaliyah Edwards, and supporting players in Cassandre Prosper, and Syla Swords (she balled out during this tournament).

Mr. Josh, do you remember what happened to your Canadian GLUE factory horse

team the last time they tried to run with Team USA?

That's what it looks like for a basketball team that was sent to the GLUE Factory.

      One down, 34 to go.   So yes, to have a chance to be added to the Brisbane 2032 Olympic Games, any sport (for example Netball Fast5, AFL Nines, NRL Nines, etc) will need to put a strong case against these 35 Criteria if they wish to be given serious consideration by the Olympic Programme Commission as an additional sport.
