Trust me, it's causing an uproar in Braz'. To go and play with Argentina seems kinda messed up, no?

Via HoopsHype.com:

Leandro Barbosa: "I thank the Brazilian Basketball Confederation, once again, for the confidence and consideration of calling me to play for the Brazilian National Team in the 2011 season. I regret to inform you that due to personal reasons this time I cannot attend this call. There always will be, for me, above all things, pride and honor to wear the Brazilian jersey. Thanks again for the consideration and trust that this institution has placed in me over these 10 years playing for the Brazilian team, and I hope that the CBB can understand."
