What was the reason to accept this in the olympics? 

 

It's too new and underdeveloped, there barely are any 3x3 specialists. It took rugby sevens like 20 years of having an established world series to be accepted in the games. FIBA invented this trash in one day and the next they are accepted by IOC???

Apparently Mongolian women played another 4 tournaments today....

Just looking at the FIBA website, France has more than 50 tournaments/exhibitions/stuffs scheduled before the end of the month and 5 between November and December

Mongolians were lazy for a day, and now Taiwan got really close to them...

and it seems Iran finally gave up trying  which is a good news to me.

Mongolia is now less than 200k ahead of Taiwan. Sadly they may miss out.

 

In another battle, Romania's lead over France is now only 25k.

Sadly? Mongolia qualifying would be a joke. I'd be ecstatic if Mongolia qualified by merit rather than because they gamed the dumb ranking system well.

Well, Taiwan is doing pretty much the same thing. Mongolian qualification would be funny at least.

Mongolia is now 3rd in the ranking, but  is not giving up. China is not safe anymore if those two continue at this rate...

On November 1, FIBA will organize a livestreamed show in Utsunomiya, Japan to reveal the teams who have qualified for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, directly or indirectly via the FIBA 3x3 Olympic Qualifying Tournaments.

To avoid spoilers and make it a special event, the FIBA 3x3 Federation Ranking is invisible up to that date.

 

The different national federations still have access to their individual data on the backend and worldwide activity and individual ranking points are still visible on https://play.fiba3x3.basketball!
