If only chooks and sbp settled their differences we could have a fighting chance to qualify in olynpic 3x3

our 3x3 womens are doing well at the moment.. head start towards to 2028 goal.. they’re currently ranked 22. thanks to uratex sponsoring the girls..

meanwhile for mens left with no pro tour team this year. after good u23 nations league stop, the mens ranking is 27 and stuck there since u23..

55-44 brazil lead at the halftime. Brazil are red hot from 3 pt land

same position, plus the safety of the athletes. To be fair with Imane, she doesn't deserve all the hate she's getting. She's just became a unwilling pawn between warring ideologies.

If they want to include them in sports competition they should have their own division, let gay play against gay and leave the women alone, lesbians can compete with females as they are still biologically the same, imagine the fencing competition in gay division

Red hot and efficient shot less and made more, but the bigs cant finished even a gimme, reason why i am still not a fan of relying too much with three point shot it's a double edged sword and it takes away other more efficient options

It's a battle of who will get grouped outright.

I think the same. Best teams and champions are threats from all three levels in the NBA. I dunno in the Euroleague, maybe sir SK can fill us in here.

oh they do.. they prioritise the 3x3.. runner up last year with serbia 3x3 world cup. 3x3 team miami won some challengers and Masters tournament with the same core US team has right now., it’s unfortunate that the number 1 ranked player in the world got injured with a groin injury (fredette)

USA womens won the world cup last year against france..

If they do, they will bring better players than those who are there... US women's team can bring Caitlin Clark and Angel Resse in 3x3 to solidify their chances, instead they bring lesser talent players... Even in men's category... They have so many talents out there than just bringing Jimmy Fredette...

Depending on SSD... I guess Brazil will try to win big today to solidify their chances... Pressure now on SSD.. they have to win or else Brazil will take that last spot

Sucks to be Japan. End of the line for Hachimura with his injury.

It's not as easy as you think. Need to play in tour events like questd, challengers, masters to garner points in the rankings.. reason they have those line up right now..

FIBA 3X3 Is avoiding hugot style NT in events like this..

And i agree with what you posted before that even if we may not become the best offensive team, as long as we can play solid defense it can be the best identity for gilas, a good defensive team that can score efficiently, gilas limited brazil at 27 points in halftime though did not sustain it
