they should change it so... in order for you to play for a national team you would.

1) Have the passport and nationality. (same as before)

2) the player has lived in the country he represents for 7 years PRIOR to the game.

And Domce is obviously so smart that he would:

1) Outsmart FIBA rules
2) Make new laws for Russian Federation

in the current sircumstances liberalisation is the way, so no simmilar changes should be expected, imho..
btw, nationality is too much to ask, obiviously. you must be confusing it with citizenship, which equals to the state's passport. so citizenship is, obviously, enough. the other thing though is the citizenship policy of a particullar country (which can be and is very different from state to state).. and that's the business of that country alone. I even doubt Russian laws are that liberal regarding this, it could simply be that Holden's example is distorted, he was granted his citizenship illegaly (just a specullation). Russia is full of double standards..

well said, if a bit too discretely, if you know what I mean

Man, I have no idea what you are talking about.

Get it together...

What about koufos

Both his parents are greek. He even speaks greeK. He was born with a greek passport,

why shoudn t he play with the greek national team?

he s not american. He s greek-american. Which means he can choose in wich national team he wants to play. he chose the greek one.
