FIBA rules still means there are two classes of pinoy (EDIT: In there eyes). Is that right? You say yes and I say no.

Exactly theyre not saying this. They just have rules on how many roster spots (1) are available for a restricted player and how many 11 for a non...

Most Latin American teams (except Argentina) are like richmen's Gilas (under DDO). That's how i describe them.
