Mexico ?
How can a country host the TOA if they are not qualified for the tournament ? I bet they are thinking that they can get away with an extra spot right there.If no other country wants to host it, I even think it could be possible...what do you guys think ?

I heard bout that. a couple fo days ago. As a matter fo fact, I read in a mexican paper that said that is was almost a fact that Mexico will host the event.
Also Heard that the dominican president ordered His federation (yeah, "HIS" I know, that sucks) to take a bid to host it too.
But if mexico have as candidate cities to represent it. Cancun or the ore one (I don't remember the name) were they played the centrebasket. I think they won't win it cuz those
arenas are not at the TOA level() basically they'r not even arenas). IF THEY HAVE ANOTHER DECENT ARENA THOU THEy"LL WIN it for sure.
but I'm a little counfused now, I thought that the number of countries qualified that can
participate in a Toa was already reach. wasn't it???????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????
?????????????????????????????????????????????????? ???????????????????????????
??????????????????????????????????????????
I thought that just only a certain # of countries could play in TOA. if mexico host it aren't they surpassing that #. will FIBA allow that??????

FIBA AMERICAS CHAMPIONSHIP 2009's HOSTING VENEZUELA?????,PUERTO RICO??? OR MEXICO????
Originally posted by -K2-they have a new arena under construction which was supposed to be ready for CentroBasket.
personally i wouldnt give them the games because of the huge failure of the CentroBasket games. SouthAmerica is due for a ToA
what about Borinque (u think they'r interested)
I'm telling u right now The dominicans will get a load of it, cuz they wanna hav the "HOMECOURT advantage" besides they think, it'll be an insentive for players that have been sceptical of playing for the NT because of conflicts with the federation like the GREERS.
I heard venezuela was interested too

I expect Puerto Rico to show some interest... but if I was the federation, i would abstain myself and try to host the olympic qualifiersLast edited by J-Mart; 09-06-2008, 03:21 AM.sigpic
