OT: International Basketball & Superteams
Posted: Wed Dec 5, 2012 3:50 am
A lot of people like to say that the NBA is the only bball league where superteams exist, but I think that's a load of horse raddish. Superteams are how you win it all now in any league on any continent.
Just look at this team in the Chinese Basketball Association:
GUANDONG SOUTHERN TIGERS:

Yi Jianlian: 26 ppg, 10 rpg, 2.0 bpg, 65% shooting
Terrence Williams: 24 ppg, 2 rpg, 5 apg, 55% shooting
Ike Diogu: 17 ppg, 13 rpg, 100% ft%, 56% shooting
They have a 4-1 record in their first year of playing together and based solely on their GGT level already have to be considered the heavy favorites over a team such as the defending champion SHOUGANG BEIJING DUCKS whose top two players are:
Stephon Marbury: 21 ppg, 7 rpg, 8 apg, 67% shooting
Morris Randolph: 20 ppg, 39% shooting
The Nets need to superteam up.
