    Eastern European, yes, Turkey even

    so the choice of a team American by bloodline prob should be Lin -> Asik -> DMo

    good for him but idk how this is gonna help him. kyrie irving was invited to last years and he only had a small statistical increase this year and his defense is still BAD.

    Could someone photoshop Asik's head onto Parson's body?

    When he's facing up? Wouldn't hurt, but it would be nice, if he had more of a go to move. Battier mixed in hook in the post, every once in a while, but Parsons should be better at it, with his height/reach.

    What do they call him in Mandarin? I love the Mandarin soundalike translations.

    CP's stock is sky high right now, he's going to get traded and the + side is the rockets won't have to pay him. Will bump this when it happens but it sucks that our organization has such a head up ass way of putting a team together.

    "Parsons invited to USA Basketball minicamp"

    Quite an accomplishment to be listed among these dudes, and considered a possible member on the next Team USA.

    It's Team USA. National teams are not limited to just pro athletes, other national teams recruit college athletes as well. Either way, this is just a mini-camp, the real tournament won't be until next summer.
