Dunadan 1,103 Posted October 21, 2019 #72 Share Posted October 21, 2019 This is ridiculous...the rankings, other than being idiotic, were also probably wrongly calculated and FIBA decided to hide them, claiming that the reason was to create interest for their event on 1 November.

Dunadan 1,103 Posted October 21, 2019 #76 Share Posted October 21, 2019 I don't care if it worked, 4 out of 8 teams are going to qualify for the Olympics (and the other teams coming from the OQTs also depending on ranking) through a ranking which is flawed, open to manipulation (like Mongolian schoolgirls playing each other) or plain cheating (who knows how many fake or irregular tournaments are included) and also not public anymore while they try to check and fix it. This is not funny anymore, it's a disgusting system, IOC should step in and force FIBA to organize a qualification tournament, or use next year's World Cup as a qualification tournament.

Well, they already cut their own fingers since FIS is apparently going to make cross-country qualifying harder for 2022. On that note: to the cross-country thread!

heywoodu 13,499 Posted October 21, 2019 #79 Share Posted October 21, 2019 By the way, who would profit from a crappy system like this? Normally one would say "the richest nations", but really, Mongolia?
