Do you make a habit of being completely wrong? </BLOCKQUOTE>

Where else was I completely wrong? Do you see enough tall people to make a national league, therefor creating a good level of competition for the national team?

I've been involved in amatuer basketball leagues and you'll find most of the big guys over here playing the semi-pro stuff arent english. The average english player height is between 6' and 6'4" which is pretty small considering.

Wrong about Turkey. Basketball is their 3rd sport behind football and the abuse of Human Rights tbh.

Yeah cos seeing each team score almost 100 points each game running down a 20 yard court doing the exact same play and with the only stopping being from some person getting touched or a fans rioting in the crowd. :thup:

My mistake real exciting stuff..
