Basketball Sleuth

The 2023 FIBA World Cup is over for the Philippines as a participant. We will now just be hosts to the world's best national teams. There were some surprising exits, and that is the beauty of international basketball.

For me, it's just the right balance. I feel that the NBA takes too long to eliminate teams from contention, while the NCAA tournament is too fast and unforgiving. Teams like Spain, Australia, and France had chances to redeem themselves from upsets, but the competition is really tough.
