From what i saw from Ricky Soliver in nancy, he is far from having the level at the point. I would even prefer him Ricardo or Jeff Greer for that place even if both of them are not made for that place.

He reminds me of The tiny guy from puerto rico that won the MVP in the centrobasket
and I don't think Neirther Ricky or Jeff or has a spot as a point in this team, because the team scares of SF and REAL SG, and besides, with sammy mejia who is a 6'6 point guard wiht a lot of talent that got a chance to play in the nba, The won be neede it there, the point is to crowded with Ronald raon a 3-pointer specialist, DAMIEN MCSWINE the dominican league MVP a guy who despite his age ih very experienced and maybe even edgar sosa
could made the team and with luis flores being the sixth man of the team, he'll be playing the point at times.

The only thing I don't like about the Canadian team (I mean beside they are automatically of course) is the fact that they have way to many players that were'n born there who don't even canadian decendence. Like Dalembert, Mendez (this guy by the way is one of the most hated in the dominican along with A-RoD or like we call him now MADONA) Majlorie, and I think that English Too(not sure 'bout this one, I'm just sayin'), and of course Nash. I mean I'm not trying to offend you or anythin' like that but I do think FIBA should regulate that in a better way.
Now, if Canada ca gather at the same tournamnet the second list of player that include
Sam Dalembert
Juan Mendez
Denham Brown
Dave Thomas
Rowan Barret
Jamaal Majlorie
STEVE NASH
along with Carl English that team Is going to be an unstoppable Gigant teamfor sure that could compete with Argentina(at least a B-level team) brazil and puerto rico and maybe even lose for less that a 20 lead by th USA.Last edited by luuij_ss; 09-02-2008, 10:34 PM.

Heck a lot of players from Puerto Rico were born and raised in the U.S as were many other players that play for South American nations.
Canada's real problem is that they don't have the right people in place to organize the talent we have into one cohesive team. Hopefully that will change in the future. (European coach )

Originally posted by ajaxballerAs far as I knew Mendez was raised in Montreal as was Dalembert. Maglorie was raised in Toronto and even has his name on a walk of fame here. Nash was raised in Canada and English was born and raised in Canada, he just has an accent because hes from the province of Newfoundland lol.

The only thing I don't really like is the situations where a player will play for a country as an import when they have no ties to that country what so ever, I can only over look it when the less competitive countries do it. (ie. Georgia, Bosnia, Japan)
