Now to everyone else who is convinced this is a "4-year program" and not a glorified series of 1-week training window-by-window/tournament-by-tournament fixtures: Start taking names and find out how much of this "12-man core" will be the most-capped by the end of 2027. Hold their assess accountable if Cone picks a team and they're not playing well or not playing at all so instead of going down a man, let's hope the SBP can can actually reward someone who deserves to be in the core even if it means taking out someone else. This way, there's no excuses like getting jet lagged from Japan, just got injured playing here so didn't practice, he's already 39 years old... nothing. The SBP wanted this over a wishlist of eligible players.
By my count, Edu and JMF are down by a game. Both should be healthy by the OQT's. Japeth playing makes this a 13-man pool so far. I don't think Perez should lose his spot yet despite forcing a lot of shots against a bad HK team. Tamayo was the shocktrooper of this game and that's fine since he'll get more FIBA games under his belt.
