vinipereira 3,047 Posted September 30, 2019 #2 Share Posted September 30, 2019 Groups for the Americas pre-qualifying tournaments. So basically a mini-South American championship for 1 spot since USA is already qualified (slight advantage for Argentina since they play at home). Canada easily will be first in the other group with Puerto Rico in good shape to take the last spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaBUru38 204 Posted October 5, 2019 #4 Share Posted October 5, 2019 What's the point of the Olympic qualifier? Didn't they just finished playing the FIBA AmeriCup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshMartini007 2,202 Posted November 14, 2019 #8 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I always felt that a 20-0 for a forfeit was too little. Teams could try to take advantage of it... phelps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly doubt you didn't know that yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted November 14, 2019 #10 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I just don't get why women's basketball no longer has continental places. I mean, what the hell? Africa is very much unjustly robbed of their place. Since 1996 we have seen all taking part in women's tournament. It's pretty much the only team event where Africa doesn't send the same team over and over again... #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
