Bad news philip

This is not his ranking it is FIBAs.

Have a look at the tournaments below and answer if Poland has played in any of them and if so whjat place they came.

I cant remember them being in the last 2 Olympics or WC or even in European championships.

If the answer is no to all those tournaments then they are ranked 75th like all other unlisted countries..

If I'm not mistaken, there are more Lebanese abroad than in Lebanon.

yes indeed

only in brazil we have about double than our population ..

[rikhardur]

rikhardur can You tell me where in your ranking is Poland !?

Yeah I took it from FIBA's website

[Stardusted]

What I didn't like at all was the USA team received their medals just after their game vs Argentina, it wasn't fair, I like the 3 winners receive their medals all together

I agree! All medal winners should receive their medals together, it is a special moment for all of them. Too bad they did that, it took away some of the fun and celebrating for their fans.

[pilipinas02]

...because 3rd place game should also be played on the same day of the finals game...

i can't comment on the rankings because my country is still suspended by fiba but i'm pretty sure that we have a great national team

[carlosGC]

why are Serbs above Slovenia, Australia, etc.?

Dunno, maybe because of point difference they got against Venezuela and Lebanon in group stage. But this doesn't seem right since Slovenia and Nigeria finished 3rd, and Serbs 4th. So I am asking again, is that ranking official?

So how does it work with Serbia and Yugoslavia???

OK they are 4th now so does Serbian results only count for this from now on?

How does Montenegra buy in to this? Maybe they need to apportion their results to put them on the board as M is now joined FIBA???

Or do they need to start from scratch?

Lithuania had to start from scratch after they regained independence from Russia...

I believe 4. YUG* 508.0 should be changed to 4. Serbia 508.0 and Montenegro starts from scratch, ranked 75.
