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.

Real madrid doesnt have a big who shot well from the perimeter. Tavares, potier are just inside players..

Greek player papagiannis was being compared to brook lopez who shot 3's..

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..

Fredette and others just joining 3x3 team recently... If there is requirements then they should not be inserted.. Cameron Brink should be in 3x3 roster before she was suffered ACL.. if that was the case then why not bring Clark? Because Brink is also 3x3 newcomer....

[Giannis34GOD]

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

If Brazil wins big here, the question of who is better between Japan and Gilas will be more highly debatable... We got Brazil in the ropes before they pull whatever they can bring especially in 3rd quarter.. take note, we don't have Kai, Edu, Malonzo and Scottie when we face Brazil... Japan almost complete minus Rui... That core is the 2023 World cup team who got the best Asian finisher last year...

I think you didnt get my explanation.

they're team miami who started playing since last year. Same players that played since last year or late 2022.. same team (barry, maddox, fredette and travis)

Brink played for US 3X3 Last year with burdick, Van lith and the other player that won the world cup 3x3. Brink played in several u23 and pro tour events like van lith last year. Van lith even played last 2022 as well..

Brink's replacement hamby played for USAB 3x3 in americas 3x3 last year..

Clark? Didnt played any 3x3 sanction events to garner enough points same as reese

Brazil did a good job limiting Kawamura's impact on the floor... They knew where are their advantage.. that is why Japan's almost beating France is a fluke...

[reamily]

So people believe now Kawamura as a 2 way player

[reamily]

I need to have a nickname to that "That's Good" commentator

Currently has 20 pts and 9 assists

Hawkinson is perfect naturalized player for Japan.. they tried others but hawkinson stands out over the others..

He is like nik rakocevic

[reamily]

I never heard a announcer as monotone as this guy is..

Yeah because he has always the ball and mostly he takes more shots even it is ill advice one... He's like more smaller version of Kiefer Ravena than Jimmy Alapag to me... The latter always thinking his teammates while the former wants to be a heroball

Robert both doesnt even have half of the skills kawamura has especially defensively..

I remember Tavares and Poirier just being inside too from reading about them. I remember Sergio "El Chacho" Rodriguez being a good shot creator from midrange as well. I was actually referring to shot creation and skill in midrange, not just in the paint or from 3.
