we still have to invest a lot on our grassroots program and maybe get some of the kids to play for US div. 1 schools.If we can't produce NBA players, maybe we can get players to the Aussie NBL and the European leagues.

From the recent Fiba 3x3 U18, Edu showed why he is one of the cornerstones of the GGG. JGDL and Amsali also should be on the list. Encho needs to somehow turn himself into a PG if he wants to be considered, time is not on his side so he will need to get busy. Here's hoping that a couple of elite shooters with size pops up.

OT: ah football... that Luis Figo/ Rui Costa led Portugese golden generation was unlucky of being in the same era as Zidane/Thuram/Henry's french team, Davids/Seedorf's dutch teams, Ronaldo/Rivaldo/Ronaldinho's brazilian teams"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone..." - Timo Cruz (Coach Carter)

For the first time in our history, we have several potential 7-footers at a fairly young age. That is the first ingredient in our recipe. We have a few years to season and cook this so let's be proactive and not have to play the blame game again when that generation is past their prime with nothing to show for.
