If this happened after all games, I’d be watching 100% more basketball.

They should have realized that they are in trouble by now... No stadium, no strong team..

 

I wonder if we can qualify to 2021 Asia Cup or not..

EuroBasket and AmeriCup are now scheduled for 2022, but no big change for Asia and Africa

 

which means teams like Iran have to play the continental Championships right after the Olympics ! there are only 9 days gap between those 2 events, probably one extra week for teams being eliminated in the first round .

Donar Groningen, Dutch champion three times in the past five seasons, has a new coach: Ivan Rudez of Croatia. @dcro @crovitlaci Is he any good?  Also, he apparently used to be national team head coach for....Slovakia  @hckosice

I thought Rudež sounded familiar, and yes, apparently his brother Damjan played on the NT.

 

Other than that, I don't know much (or anything, rather).
