Yeah,i was confused by what you wanted to say.Yeah China is coming,despite the controversy,i'm just happy that as i understand sun yang or whoever eas that Chinese swimmer whosmashed  his doping test won't be at paris.

This swimmer is quite old and is unlikely to return to a high level but now they have young people + strong relay teams. You will have to pull out every medal and probably achieve personal bests to stand on the podium.

yeah...the reaction to the loss from the people in charge of the federation is completely lacking but then again,why am i surprised ?

IOC keeping basketball tournament at 12 is by far the biggest shame regarding quotas. This is going to be probably the best international tournament in history of basketball. I'm not overreacting. And it wouldn't be any different if 4 more places went to countries like Lithuania, Slovenia, Bahamas etc..  And I don't care for 3x3 even when it's going to be our probably safest medal at the games. 

 

Having men's football at 16 glorified youth competition with no relevance in the world of sport and basketball at 12 is a joke.

Basketball also has terrible qualifying formats. Intercontinental repechages should never have more than 25% of quotas.

i agree. 3x3 should be dropped in favor of mor team in 5x5, After all 3x3 basketball is mainly a sport of youth interest
