Ya. I actually think the 3x3 idea itself is a cool idea, but the way the sport is organized right now is just a joke.

Expand  

One of the things that makes 3x3 a "joke" is how it computes its world rankings. Any country can beat the system by hosting a bunch of local tournaments. For instance, how in the world does Iran able to be the 2nd seed for the women's qualification tournament. If you look at their skills and technique, you would know that they're one of the worst teams of the tournament.

Yeah, they need to update their world ranking format. Not every minor tournament deserves to be given ranking points, nor does the 100th best athlete from a nation should contribute to the ranking.

 

They also need more than 8 teams competing, but that's an IOC issue.

Watching this  v  match, I think it's safe to say that we won't have much a chance against either of these teams in the QFs (if we will qualify for the QFs). Both US and France look good for the quotas.
