for what its worth, Serbia defeated the US for the gold medal in the FIBA under 19 championships. The US went 8-1 with their mostly black team, narrowly defeating Serbia in an earlier round and also narrowly beating Lithuania, before losing to Serbia in the finals. Encouraging to see more future European talent emerging.

Wow thats truly amazing. Lithuanias population is 3.5 million and Serbia (who've been a country for less than a year) 10 million. Also soccer is number one sport in both countries. I can't help but think if the USA team was at least half white they'd probably win eveything like they should. The team certainly lacks intellegence, play making and proper leadership which white players are generally better at.
