Not sure where but we need thread about upcoming Eurobasket 2013. It is disappointing Enes can't play due to injury but there will be plenty of NBA players participating so I expect some of you to watch it and discuss it. Mods can you sticky it until it will be over in September?
 
This one in September, pre-season in October and then the regular season kicks off. It says, 9-11 August there will be;

USA Basketball 3x3 U18 National Championship (Men & Women)
Colorado Springs, Colorado

Anyone from Colorado? Telecast or internet link?
 
[Friendly Tournament] Spor-Toto World Cup

23.08.2013 Turkey - Belgium
24.08.2013 Turkey- Croatia
25.08.2013 Turkey - Serbia
 
Turkey sucked terribly as always. Chucker( PG's that can't even chuck in Ender Arslan and Barış Ermiş, this team will eliminated in the first groups, no doubt. I hope idiot tanyeviç bring Kenan Sipahi('95 PG) and Berk Uğurlu(96 PG) to the team even to the starting line up. Kenan is better than Barış in every aspect of the Game. He started for Tofaş this year as a 17 year old white guy, played against good international players at EuroChallange.

But in reality, ender arslan the ball hog aka pooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooor man's Jennings gonna chuck
 
So Pekovic is not going to play for Montenegro due to unresolved contract talks. There goes Montenegro hopes at making some noise with Nikola ( Vucevic and Pekovic) twin towers.
 
Is this the one where AK does very well, then we are all told over and over for weeks how AK will rule the NBA now? That league?
 
I'm no sure about Vucevic&Pekovic duo is better than Asik&Ilyasova&Kanter trio, which will not be seen this year nevertheless.

It's not just injury that Kanter's situation.He rejected to join last year, and this is a dignity issue in turkey.I'm not convinced that Kanter will play in national team in near future, regarding his interviews.It depends on coaching as well.There is a high possibility after the team sucks next tournament, the bill is gonna be paid by Tanjevic.

Some consideration would be necessary before asserting NBA to be better than European basketball.
NBA is well-marketed and a attraction center.

Money brings popularity.
