        Depends more on where you live really. In most major cities "mixed" is a perfectly fine thing to identify as.

        Though it is true, typically if you're mixed you're more likely to identify as black. It's why African Americans can vary in skin tone from near white to very dark.

        Still the people that get upset with that are extremely few in number, or at least not willing to say so publicly, and I'd argue that most of them aren't even basketball fans.

            So far, no Asian team has replicated or duplicated the success of Philippine Basketball Team's bronze medal finish. Hopefully the Asian teams will perform well this WC.

              you know if we decide to ignore all those Olympic championships as well

              anyway serbia is granted those two titles anyway by FIBA.

              But Yugoslavia is only granted the 3 before that.

                          In the last decade they won silver three times in the Asian Championship. They got a good reason to be proud of their team i suppose since regionally they are among the best.

                          • Its almost certain that K. Papanikolaou will not grab one of the 12 positions of the Greek NT. The last position is up for grab between Pappas and Vougioukas now.
