These teams have other goods players that do not play in the NBA, you know ? Many of them are better than some players you mentioned.

Greece (Antetokounmpo) - this makes it look like it's Giannis and bunch of nobodies.

Also, where are Serbia or Croatia ? Serbia is probably the second best team in the world and they are not even included.

France or spain

Canada doesn't play like a team with a chemistry

Serbia though. Will always be relevant with jokic

They were already relevant before Jokic rose to the stardom. Imagine how good they are now when Jokic is one the best in the world.

Runner ups in 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympics games. Both France and Spain will always be dangerous, but Serbians are favorites in my mind to win the next EuroBasket.

Serbia (which isn't even an option on your poll). France, Spain, Canada and Australia all have an abundance of talent but all that talent hasn't led to all that much success. Whereas the Serbian national team has really got their ish together and have looked great in the last couple international competitions.

Added Serbia - my mistake.

You need to take off Greece and put Croatia and eventually Estonia.

Serbia also has Milos Teodosic who was the GM Survey "best international player not in the NBA"

Teodosic, Jokic, Bogdanovic, Kalinic, Bjelica, Marjanovic, etc. That team is scary. Already planing of placing some cash on them in this upcoming Eurobasket, if they bring all of their talent.

Haha, not offended. I only wish it was true. There are three Baltic states - Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania. Latvia has Porzingis and other up and coming players, Lithuania has always been good and we have always sucked.The most positive thing I can say about where I live is that Porzingis was born only 450 km away from me :lol:

Canada doesn't belong on this list. Wiggins is a fraud that wishes he was American -.-

Misvoted for France, but if I could redo it I'd go w/ Spain. Although Pau is old as ****, he still has a game that is perfect for international play. Throw in Marc and Ibaka as a frontcourt and that' is as dangerous as it gets. The second wave of Spanish players are on the up and up and Rubio looks to have taken that next step this season.

Spain right now but in a few years it'll be Canada by a landslide. Most of their players are really young whereas the Gasols, Ibaka and Rubio will be declining.

We will see, but having bunch on nba scrubs and role players doesnt Automatically make best team by a landslide. I still have a lot of faith in Serbian, Croatian, Lithuanian and other top Euro teams.

I'm surprised France is getting no love. A team with Gobert, Batum, and Parker is as dangerous as they come.

Second Best National Team?
