SuperSant · Post #1 » by **SuperSant** » Wed Aug 7, 2013 5:13 pm

I didn't see a topic for this so I thought I would start some discussion.

Team Canada takes on Team Jamaica tomorrow night at 7:00 PM ET in Toronto.

Looking forward to what our young guys have been working on and I'm hoping for the W.

Lets show some Canadian Pride!!

Also, doesn't seem like Hibbert is on their roster.

Only thing I could find was Samardo Samuels and Patrick Ewing Jr. as their 2 top guys right now.

It doesn't say what channel it will be on. It will be aired live right...?

I hope its not sold out yet, plan on going on Thursday.

I'm dreading the Wiggings chant that some wanker will start, but it should be fun.

I was watching TSN2 last night and caught some of the ONT/NS game at the canada games. Its nice to see that kind of coverage.

I'd like it if we could have a billboard posting any relevant or not relevant bball coverage that is on tv.

Dont think any cuts have been made yet. They will probably try out a bunch of different things at these pre-lims and see what works before making cuts i think!

I believe he did a few years ago, yes.

This was when he wasn't so highly regarded.

That's the same way I feel but I feel a little more compelled to route for the place of my birth plus they'll be the underdogs... we might witness the fastest fastbreak team ever though.

Olu Ashaolu and Daniel Mullings are not on the list of 17 guys now listed by Basketball Canada as attending training camp. Not clear whether they were cut, or were never there in the first place (despite being listed earlier).
