how long does the korea league run? is it only one championship?

here in the philippines, the PBA runs for roughly 10 months with 3 championships. one is all filipino and then two import conferences.

KBL season is patterned like the NBA regular season where in the KBL, there 52 regular season games. Top six finishers advance into the playoffs.

After we get to wbc if we get lucky this year, the chase of getting into outside of asian basketball would be over already.. Its time to really regain our Asian glory thru Asian Games..

The new format in my opinion would only worsen the popularity of the game instead of promoting it. There would be less people be interested due to players being unavailable. It would also be hard to be a good team there since it would take a month or two to know who qualified. This is what they have been doing as well in the qualifers for the eurobasket.

I also think that this tournament should be the most important/prestigious for the countries since a good finish here would push you to the world stage. In football, its the opposite, countries use their young/junior teams during the olympics and use their senior teams during the world cup. Just check the 2012 olympics.

Olympics and wbc should be the grand tournament for basketball..

In Asia should be the Asian Games..with schedule that would smack with the nba off season

Youngsters like Kim Jong-Kyu, Lee Jong-Hyun, Kim Min-Goo, Moon Seung-Gon and Choi Joon-Young find Jollibee very appetizing. Skinny guys like Min-Goo and Joon-Young sure can eat. Yang Dong-Geun is kill-joy, ordered from Pepper Steak-Lunch. Picture taken in Rockwell Powerplant Mall by Kim Seung-Hyun.

Glad they are liking Jollibee. And they also seem to like those coconut flavored drinks in the bottle

Yoo Jae-Hak with an interview with SBS-ESPN after the loss to the Philippines:

"They (Philippines) played better than us in the second half. They were making shot after shot and we lost our composure in the last three minutes."

Yoo said that they will give their all for their last game and a chance to make it to Spain.

Props to Korea for this beautiful game.

So they value th pe Asian Games more than the Fiba Asia? Why is that so?

How important is the Asian Games to the Koreans? Well, Asian Games gold medalists will be exempted to enlist for the mandatory military tour of duty. FIBA continental titlists, i believe, are not exempted.

Oh ok. Here its a little different the past few years, before we do value the Asian games more but with the Sbp taking over the fiba qualifiers to the Olympics and World cup has been the more important tourney.

Team had a full breakfast and later it is a light practice. Their last game for this trip. Next year for the Asian games, some of the veterans like Kim Joo-Sung and Lee Seung-Jun may no longer be with the team. They have an upcoming generation.
