Eurobasket 2022 Finals : SPAIN are European champions!!!

[Mirotic12]

If so many European domestic leagues didn’t have these asinine rules limiting the number of American imports, obtaining a foreign passport would be far less beneficial to these guys for their career earning potential. I’d personally like to see 12 of the best non NBA Americans competing together for a country where basketball doesn’t exist, like the Isle of Man. Each player gets a coveted European passport and the EuroBasket tournament gets another gold medal contender. Would be a nice alternative to the thankless role of being scattered across various ungrateful, complaining countries.

Mike James/Nate Wolters
Jordan Lloyd/Kevin Punter
Shaquielle McKissic/John Brown/Cory Higgins
Will Clyburn/Luke Sikma
Kyle Hines/Donta Hall/Josh Nebo

None of those players in bold are among the 12 best American players in Europe. Higgins used to be, but definitely not now. It's posts like that, which really show you have no clue about European major pro club basketball.

That’d be cool too. I’m all for whatever produces the highest level of basketball in the summertime. More Americans=higher level of basketball.

In the EuroLeague, it has typically meant more expensive rosters and failures to win championships.

As Europe’s best hoops journalist Dontas Urbanas said on his podcast today, take your complaints to your country’s national basketball administration and demand they implore FIBA to make a change. Continuing to bitch year after year into the ether has proven useless & ruins the vibe for everyone who’s just trying to enjoy basketball.

You are complaining and bitching more than anyone in this thread.

Yeah, Germany didn't play with much fire.
It bothers me that many games look more like a 3point contest. Like this one.
Can't believe guys stop on their way to the basket just to pass it to someone outside the 3point line, instead of even trying a midrange jumper when open.

Analytics have reached the old continent too. The mid-range is the worst shot in basketball.

I wish Poland tried some mid range shots instead of bricking 3pointer after 3pointer.

I know! This insistence that Gobert can play-make, like at all, is baffling.
