              That would be my guess too.

              So Haynes and Doornekamp are the only players without NBA experience?

              Pretty solid roster but not very big. Looks like we'll be doing 3 guards and 2 forwards the entire time, and one of the forwards might be a G/F.

                  I think with a short rotation of Walker , Lyles , and Andrew Nicholson ( He has a lot of experience playing for Canada ) .. That is not bad ... I don't know what Bennett has shown in camp ? One player I really wish was there is Kelly Olynyk he is our our version of

                    Just because they have the same haircut, build, complexion, and play style? Weird comp but OK

                      I meant that his professional career doesn't reflect what he does when ever puts a Canadian Jersey on .. 34 points to that loss against Venezuela . How he plays is a great fit for FIBA basketball .. When ever he plays for Canada he is one of the leaders in the boxscores . Out of all the young guns in this era of Canadian basketball he is the one who excels in FIBA

                      (114) Canada v Venezuela - Semi-Final - Full Game - 2015 Fiba Americas Championship - YouTube

                      Holly crap we were up by 4 with the possession with less then 2 minutes to play .

                      • I was listening to the Bill Simmons podcast and he said " You know who I would like playing for the U.S " Dillon Brooks .. Holly cow he went on and on about it . Twitter was joking about it ..

                        Love the team we are sending but wow to have Murray , Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Dillon Brooks .. They are all so young and so it might happen one day.

                        • Canada is 13 point favorites over Greece . What ever that means . It must say something about what the book makers think of Greece

                            I'm always worried when a team is missing their star player. Sometimes a whole team can elevate their play. Greece shouldn't be underestimated and I am sure Nurse and his staff will not do so. Certainly the Canadian players shouldn't with the recent history of disappointment behind them.

                                The only reason the Greak Freek isn't playing is because of covid delays. NBA should be over. The basketball Gods have lined this one up for us. Don't blow it!
