Imagine teams created with countries that once was parts of Yugoslavia (Serbia, Slovenia, Croatia, Macedonia etc.) and Soviet Union (Lithuania, Russia, Ukraine etc.). They would contain 5 of 10 European countries in 2014 World Cup.
Which one would be better? How could their roster looks like? Would they have a chance against team USA?

The Soviet Union fantasy team was super-strong during the mid 00s, but right now I think it would be one of the worst teams in decades for them.

The only legit basketball countries left from Soviet Union are Lithuania & Russia. Latvia too I guess. And the latter 2 are in decline in terms of level of play. If you went ahead and tried to form a Soviet Union team, it would be an almost all-Lithuanian team with a few Russians and Latvians playing as backup role-players. The talent pool just isn't there to compete with a bunch of former Yugoslavian countries.
