We have a basketball team? Or did >we just meme our way in through geography or some bullshit like the Soccer World Cup
>>66104045
fuck, even if we qualify we're fugged
>>66104142
Only amerifags can beat us in Belgrade and that is maybe.
>>66104146
If the US can qualify for the Rugby World Cup, Straya can have a basketball team.
USA could randomly pick a bunch of street niggers and win
>>66104146
actually, you always meme your qualifications through because it's always Aussies vs NZ
>>66104120
phew
>>66104170
Not really. International basketball is good enough to where >we will get beaten if we don't put any effort into organizing a team.
>>66104170
Why didn't it win in 2004, then?
>>66104174
yeah, Nigerians should be EASY (they lost to americans at like 80point loss) and argie golden generation is getting old so you should have a decent shot for quarterfinals
>>66104146
>we
get in through an Oceania tournament (lel), but we're actually good enough to make it anyway
>>66104170
yeah just like in Athens
Now all we need is for Canada to qualify and get put in Group B and it'll be Literally Raptors: The Group
>>66104174
how is your team?
>>66104146
Can Steven Adam's play for you lads?
>>66104244
he's a kiwi so no
>>66104215
it's alright, favorite to win against Nigeria and Argentina, but they may choke.
Raul Neto did well in the FIBA World Cup, Huertas is finding his form in the NBA. Plus Leandrinho and the usual big guys.
>its a USA wins FIBA episode
>>66104143
EUROPE
ASIA
SOUTH AMERICA
YUGOSLAVIA
>>66104142

>>66111470
>>66104045
bretty good draw for australia by the looks
>>66111641
That poor guy never said that. A chilean website grabbed a random pic to make that joke and ruined that guy life forever
>>66111494
the perfect storm of haphazardly throwing together stars with no concerns for team construction
it's like if Team USA chose Westbrook/Harden/Carmelo/Griffin/Cousins. Sure it looks good on paper, but it could easily exit the tournament early because it's a horrible fit.
Just give us the gold already
Who gets silver? Argentina?
>>66104045
Well we get to see USA vs Ben Simmons, in his last competitive game before he goes do Philadelphia so there's that.
Getting separated from Spain and Argentina sucks tho, they've been some hype games
The Draw should always be USA, Host, Spain, China, Argentina and France in group A and the meme teams in group B
Where is Canada how can AAU hotbed and a nation with 2 of the last 3 #1 picks not be in the tourney?
>>66111674
>ruined his life forever
why would anyone care about some random people on the internet making fun of something he never said?
i don't understand
>>66104045
we're kill
Just give us the gold now lads
seriously who can stop >us?
