Basketball 2021 Discussion Thread

The tournament is scheduled for September of next year and the competition's arrival in Brazil is a partnership between the Brazilian Basketball Confederation (CBB) and the sports marketing holding of the Brazilian and São Paulo soccer team player Daniel Alves, who has just won the gold medal with Brazil in Tokyo 2020.

 

 

Sport growth and Paris 2024

 

The arrival of AMERICUP to Brazil reinforces CBB's work for the Paris 2024 Olympic cycle, when basketball will seek qualification to return to the Games, and also for the sport's growth. The country has not hosted the Copa America since 1984, when it took the title over Puerto Rico, in São Paulo. The last achievement of the tournament came in 2009, just when Puerto Rico hosted the competition.

 

- Receiving AMERICUP in Brazil after so long, and with strong and traditional teams like Argentina, United States and Canada, is a unique opportunity. It's the chance to have high-level games, to move the sport and the fans in the country and also to reinforce our work in the Paris 2024 cycle, when we are going to look for the Olympic place again. Brazilian basketball has a winning history and we know our responsibility to rescue it - quoted the president of the CBB, Guy Peixoto Jr.
 

 

Partnership with Daniel Alves' company

 

Owner of the greatest number of titles in football history, player Daniel Alves has just won another trophy, now Olympic gold in Tokyo 2020 with the Brazilian team. But the right-back is also already working thinking about the post-career. Partner at the sports marketing company, Daniel is one of those responsible for bringing AMERICUP to Brazil alongside CBB and FIBA Americas.

 

Daniel will inaugurate in September, in Bahia, his social project, which will serve 2,000 children with football and basketball modalities. The basketball will even have a 3x3 court with capacity to receive events, with official floor and all FIBA technology.

Just saw a post on social media about the insane score line of the :USA v. :CRC match the U16 Americas Women’s Championship and thought it was worth posting the score. The final score of that quarterfinal match was 121-12 in favor of :USA, that’s a margin of victory by 109 points :yikes:

    • Papszun took over in December when Legia was in 17th place already. Edward Iordanescu started the season and former player Inaki Astiz was a caretaker for two months. This duo combined for a club record 12 match winless streak that dropped Legia to relegation zone. The club's previous worst streak was 11 matches in 1966 
    • With the halved swimming distance, the one point drop is now every 0.2s instead of 0.5s.
    • Unbelievable mess in Men's Ski Cross final in  today. Big crash & 3 riders were DNF. The only finisher was relegated for causing the crash, so the winner was the DNF guy who got furthest down the hill!  
    • Papszun led Legia to the relegation zone? Pioli did the same with Fiorentina this season, but he was fired long time ago.

    • I told you , the lobby of Satanyahu controles your countries        French ICC Judge Nicolas Guillou is living a nightmare after the US sanctioned him and other judges for issuing an arrest warrant against  Prime Minister Saranyahu  https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2026/02/18/us-sanctions-turn-international-criminal-court-judges-daily-life-into-a-nightmare  
    • Yes, that's Haaland's cousin Braut Brunes. If he has a bad day Raków is usually scrapping for 1-0 victory unless they concede a goal. Ivi Lopez is the playmaker but he's not as sharp since an injury last season.   Lech & Jagiellonia are the two strongest clubs right now, Raków probably #3. I discount league surprises and of course Legia which is stuck in relegation zone 
    • On transfermarkt, Raków is worth 42 million euros and Jagiellonia only 32, but it is known that this is only a theory. On paper, the most valuable clubs in Poland are Lech and Raków: €42 million each. Raków have a strong Norwegian attacker from what I can see on internet.
    • Fiorentina gets another  club Raków Czestochowa in R16     Raków manager Marek Papszun moved to Legia lately and the club is slightly less demanding than Jagiellonia IMO. They're unlikely to score more than 1-2 goals in a game even in our league but have a better defense.
