looking forward to the 2016 Olympics as I actually might have a shot on going!!!

also just add in...I hope the NBA/FIBA doesn't imply that 23 and under rule for future olympics for the USA....it pure utter BS.

Which rule is this? Don't think I've heard about it...

well it's not official as it's still in the works, but rumor has it  to  protect their players from injury while they age, and to the fact that they aren't getting any revenue from NBA players playing in the Olympics NBA owners want to limit the participating players to 23, or make the roster 6 NBA players and 6 college players

Seems like a silly rule if you ask me...but I'm not really 'in-tune' with Basketball...

People always seem surprised when I tell them that next to no-one in the UK knows about the sport. Hopefully the Olympics changed that.
