It's the most important basketball competition of the quadriennium even if a couple of countries don't care at all, they should make the Olympic qualification much more dependent on the WC...no reason to give a free OQT spot to teams that don't give a damn about the international part of the sport for 4 years.

Don't agree. At least the best European nations will be with best teams (only Italy has problems). And Australia with best team as well. Well, for European teams, players and fans this is very important competition.

They might as well call this the B Basketball World Championship, it’s worse than the Ice Hockey World Championship in terms of player participation.

 

Though, granted, even the Olympics are weird in that regard given that the US could probably have the best, second best, third best and fourth best teams.

 

Either way, it’s shaping up to be a bit of a boring competition. Big scrap for silver while the :USA C team dominates.

Why B? Only because USA and Canada? USA is still great. Canada played with good team 2015. at Americas championship....... and we all know what happened ;)

 

MVP of NBA league Antetokounmpo will be there, Jokic who was in ALL NBA FIRST TEAM will be there, best defansive player of NBA league this year Gobert as well + a huge number of great basketball players.

    • Who wins today? Johaug and Klaebo???   No  or  flags on the start so i cheer for Jasmi Joensuu  she’s the girl to watch this season, mind my words 
    • Sarcastically of course, cheering for the fact she basically received no punishment     Tennis and football are jokes in terms of combatting doping.
    • Excited as always   My main thought was "alright, only 18 countries in the women's race and apparently no wildcards for anyone, that's decent news"
