Fiba getting crazy, planning to change system of qualification for Olympic Games
The most obvious solution is to increase number of participating teams. Even with the time limits imposed by duration of Olympic Games its possible to organize such event with more teams.
That would b a solution, but as far as I know all team sports tournaments in the OG r held with 12 participants.That cannot change.Having that in mind a good distribution would b:
5 teams from Europe
3 teams from America
1 team from Asia
1 team from Africa
1 team from Oceania
+host team
world champion is included, so it reduces the remaining spots 4 the champions' continent by 1.if the champion comes from another continent than europe and america, then europe(the continent with most spots) could lose one spot.
Your time is up my time is now,
you can't see me my time is now...
