we hosted the tournament last time,we lost in the final then too.so i doubt that would of made a diffrence.And what's the issue ? simple,these ''I'm drowning in money look at where i play '' basketball players'' do not actually give one fuck about their nation when it comes down to crunch time,they just care about there contracts,there's always a boatload of excuses as to why they can't perform,and there allowed to get away with it,because people who talk about basketball online with platforms cannot be bothered to criticize these millionares.No one here will accept the small population arguement,they simply won't.Latvians also played in their own arena this year,didn't bring them the ticket.
