    I love to see Team USA vs. Team Philippines in the 2014 FIBA World Championship.

    But he's not Asian or Filipino. He's a black American. Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose of having "Team Philippines"?

    Citizenship Through Naturalization. Spain naturalized Serge Ibaka. Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon was also a Naturalized American Citizen.

    Powerhouse teams like the US, Russia, and Spain naturalized players.

    Yeah, I don't like those instances either. Naturalizing a player from another country for the sole purpose of having them play for your national team, which is supposed to be comprised of real citizens.

    I see. The Current FIBA rule is one naturalized player per team.

    Ibaka spent time in Spain and knows the language, Hakeem spent 12 years in the US before becoming a citizen.

    Shaquille O'Neal said JaVale McGee will go through the "Shaq Big Man Camp" this summer. O'Neal promised that McGee will be better next year.
