So Nash's impact was effectively...zero? Maybe helped land Nurse?
Although Nash did play for Canada he was known more for saying no then yes .. The NBA commissioner should get involved or FIBA working with the NBA to make sure what is the best situation that the stars play .

If the NBA had a choice, the organization and the league owners would rather none of their players played.
what luxury do you get from this opportunity ? They are doing it for free and in fact they don't have the luxury of a NBA contract if they get hurt.
I think you misunderstood my point. Guys like Scrubb and even Boucher don't have the luxury of passing up an opportunity to play for team Canada cause it can have a material impact on their careers - it could mean the difference between getting paid to play basketball at all. For guys like Barrett and Murray, they have the luxury of telling Team Canada to fuck off and vacation in Europe and it will make zero difference for their NBA careers.
I don't think its usually their pro teams telling guys not to play (although in some circumstances it would be), its agents and their "camps" and all the hangers on making money off of them

Especially this season, where the championship feels like it's wide open for the first time in years. Players really are going to be working on their game this off-season. Apparently both Lebron and Kawhi are organizing mini-camps with their teammates, which I think would occur around the time of WC qualifying.
