With Giannis and Thanasis Antetokounmpo and also with Georgios Kalaitzakis, the Milwaukee Bucks have three Greek players on their roster. Giannis and Thanasis have each played 13 games so far this season, while the rookie Kalaitzakis has played in 5 games.

 

Have there been any other examples of an NBA team having three players from the same country on their team? Excluding USA of course. I can't think of any in recent memory.

 

I can think of teams with two players from the same country but not three.

Definitely. You only need to look at the current NBA rosters to answer your own question. You might want to start with the Detroit Pistons ...

 

On another note:

1) Does anyone here have any thoughts about the NBA top 75 list?

2) Who do people on here pick for the NBA awards (MVP, DPOY, ROY, MIP, 6th man) this year?

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

They have a three Canadians. I just looked at all the current NBA rosters and unless I'm mistaken, only the Pistons with three Canadians and the Bucks with three Greeks meet this criteria.

 

Yet you were so dismissive and made it seem like there are many many teams which fit this criteria...

 

Curious to see if we are the only European country with this, ever.

According to Danish news, Gabriel "Iffe" Lundberg is set to join Phoenix Suns and thereby become Denmark's first NBA player!

He played for CSKA Moscow but officially cancelled his contract yesterday.

For matches left in the regular season and LA Lakers aka the oldest team in the league is four games behind SA Spurs for the last play-in spot :p I wonder if Jennie Buss has the audacity to blow this pensioners house up after the season? Anthony Davis is injured for like the 12th time this season and Russell Westbrook has been terrible. The fomer triple double king is nothing more than a bench player this season.

 

We could see a Bucks vs Suns finals repeat this season again IMO.

Lakers missed the playoffs and fired HC Frank Vogel :coffee:

 

Play-in games have started. Nets beat Cavaliers 115-108 and Timberwolves beat Clippers 109-104 to qualify outright.

 

The losers will still have a chance if they beat #9 vs #10 game winners.

    • Though I did just see that today's race isn't valid for FIS points.
    • Let's not act as if these things never happen before. Serbia's cross-country skiing drama a week before the Olympic qualifying for Beijing ended: FIS | Cross-Country Results - Zlatibor (SRB) 2021/2022   Drndic with a DNF, despite being - on paper at least - the best athlete. She didn't just 'not finish', she stepped out barely 50 meters before the finish, because if finishing, the points for her competitor would have been better due to the way points are calculated. Ended up with lots and lots of yelling and screaming and fighting and cursing, DNS the next day and in the end Serbia sent none of them.   This is not a shit move by Canada, this is a fault of the system at most.
    • Yes agreed, resetting it would help make it more dramatic as no one would be running away with it. We could also set it that there is a small reward for ranking higher after each round… maybe they start the next round with a “head start” so they bring a few points into the next round? But starting from scratch each round might be cleaner  
    • I like the concept a lot. My only worry would be that the nations doing the best individually would also end up at the top here as teams are only made up of pairs. Whereas in a bigger team it gives the nations not doing so well individually to have another chance if they are lucky enough to be placed in a good team. Any way we can balance it?
    • I thought about accumulating, but for higher drama it may be reset like in cycling track elimination races 
    • Those are the national junior championships, national championships are in Steinkjer, starting tomorrow: FIS | Steinkjer (NOR) - Event Details - Cross-Country
    • Nice for them, but also kind of too bad they pick the exact same two as last time. Would have been nice to see Regina Martinez for example (although I'm not sure that would have been logistically possible, depending on how they're going to do the flag bearer thing in the first place).
