I'm not 100 percent certain of the rules but I remember reading that the Olympic committee requires a minimum three year residency in order for players to use their dual residency. I'm guessing the World Cup doesn't use that rule.

that sucks.

if they have dual citizenship and clear blood ties, they should play.

these kids mostly isn't good enough to play for USA but they can play for philippines. get the worlds/olympic experience.

I'm referring to Blatche getting disqualified from the Asian games because of that rule enforced by Olympic Council of Asia. But he did play in The Philippine FIBA Basketball World Cup. I'm not 100 percent sure of the details and I'm not well versed on this subject. I'm just going by what I remember reading.

LOL I agree. A little off topic but who has more upside, Clarkson or Wiggins? Some people think I'm crazy but I think Clarkson is on pace to be one of the top 3 rookies from last year's draft.

There hasn't been much to get excited about this season but I see a bright future with Clarkson, two good draft picks this summer, a FA signing along with a healthy Randle. Maybe just hopeful and overly optimistic.

Clarkson has a higher offensive upside than Wiggins..there's no doubt that he's the steal of his draft class
