As a basketball fan I will take more basketball at the Olympics in any form. What would your country's 3 v 3 team be?

What would be cool is if they allowed a country to have multiple teams, like they do beach volleyball.Pistons: 2021-22 Let the Motorcade begin!!

Weren't the sports for 2016 already decided a few years ago? They added rugby sevens and golf.

TBH I don't think the Olympics is a great venue for this, the main advantage of the format is that it allows for relatively short tournament having a lot of participants, opening up the field to countries that never qualify for tournaments in regular basketball, but I doubt the IOC would let them have a very large field.Last edited by JGX; 08-12-2012, 12:05 AM.Originally posted by FedfanOriginally posted by GuTOComment

Worst. Idea. Ever.
You actually think this is cool but the Olympics are more prestigous than some streetball tourny. I will be shocked if they go through with this. Next thing you know it we'll have a dunk contest.

So they can add golf and BMX but they take out baseball? How does that make any sense?
Not a fan of 3 on 3 in the Olympics. There's no need for it in a tournament like the Olympics. It'd be more exciting but it just doesn't seem right to put it in the Olympics.Comment

Baseball wasn't added because the government over here didn't want to build the facilities to host baseball! Wait till Japan in 2020 is it? Baseball will be there then!Originally posted by CHBB View PostVEF RIGAComment

I agree. If you let pros play, it would be a big mess. But there is a catch, where is the line between amateurs and proffesionalsOriginally posted by Nikoo View Post

But there is thin line between professionalism and semi-professionalism, at least in my country. There is first national league, second and so on...Originally posted by Nikoo View PostComment
