Fiba > Nba?

The funny thing kinic is that I am pretty sure I agree with you. My first post was just to point out that FIBA is not about individual talent. USA didn't loose because they don't have good players. If they want to win a FIBA le, they don't have to replace someone with Iverson, put KG in the mix shake it 2 minutes and that's it
They need to learn how to play FIBA BB. That is the big issue. It is hard because in FIBA BB you need to forgot about your superhero suit (Flash get out of this body ).

I am french so I will give an exemple about how I see talent:
Diaw is known to be a great talent since he is a kid.
Before being drafted he was named MVP in the french league becoming the first MVP scoring less than 10ppg.
Then he was drafted by this crappy team in Atlanta. The kid disappear for two years.
He became a bench player in the worst team in the league. But his talent was still there.
Then he comes to Phoenix has a throw in in JJ deal. In the good system is talent was allowed to explosed. He became a starter in a top 3 team in the west and last year MIP.
IMO USA playing FIBA BB is the Lebron's Atlanta.

Ok. Now I understand. I agree with you. The same was with some other european NBA player. Never forgoten Drazen Petrovic who sit one and a half year at Portland. And boy was he a starr in Europe.

In addition there is one thing that bother me too. Those diferences in NBA and FIBA BB? Are they realy so important. I mean if any team in NBA would play more combinatoric BB they would also have a lot of it. I will put it this way.
In NBA you don't have to play combinatoric BB. You can play 1 on 1. But you could play?
In FiBA depends on oponents defens many times you can't play 1 on 1.
