Perhaps if they would have left our emblem on. Maybe spurschick can fix this travesty.
Sorry, not my department.
And I'm not sure if they'll have these at the At&T Center store or not.
I agree, this stat would be more relevant if the U.S. had the best soccer league in the world that all the best players globally wanted to play in. A lot of countries have leagues with 1st, 2nd and 3rd divisions so those are like 60 team leagues in effect. Plus, there are all the hockey players from the Eastern European countries to consider.

Looks to me like they are using teams from former Spanish colonies...
Cali, Texas, Arizona and Florida...
Other areas of the US first colonized by Spain don't have NBA teams...I think. Maybe Utah...maybe Colorado.
Dunno why they qualify Brazil when saying Latin America...Portuguese is as much a Latin derived Language as Spanish, and I've seen Brazil consistently included as part of Latin America in many groupings.
In fact, Brazil is probably the reason they call it Latin America and not Hispania America in the first place.

They should have done that for the uniforms when they played in Europe-- meaning the flag trim. Maybe they will this fall for those teams that go this year.
In reality, Belize was a British colony and speaks English.
along with spanish.In reality, Belize was a British colony and speaks English.
English is the "official" language there, but the most popular language (even moreso than English) for everyday speaking is Belizean Creole. Only about 1/3 of the people there speak Spanish.
At the last minute, the Latin-Themed Uniforms have been changed.
Here's a photo
Didn't we go through a decade of that?
DIE PINK DIE.
Not so sure I would be proud of this!!!!!!
More mavfan jealousy, I see.
Not talking about the Spurs Jersey, just the Latin Theme! But then again I guess that is necessary when you live in San Antonio.
City smack is weak.
And why shouldn't people be proud of the strides the NBA has taken in bringing foreign atheletes into the NBA? Being a Mavs fan, if they wanted to honor European players and put a German-themed uni on, I bet you wouldn't have an issue.
You live in Texas, so shut it. I live in Dallas (born and raised here), and spanish influence is everywhere can't you see?
So much that Rick Perry is considering giving Dallas back to Mexico.
