FIBA World Cup [USA vs. TUR: 9/3, 8:30 AM EST (ESPN+)]

DRAW OUT TODAY!!!
As an Aussie, pretty shattering to be drawn with Canada and Lithuania. One of the unluckiest teams on the planet. Senegal won't be a pushover either.
US has a CRAZY easy group, and nice seeding. Should be a cakewalk to the final.
Anyway, I'm heading to the Guangzhou area for the first week. PM me if you want to catch up and find weird food!
Sidenote: Spain, Iran, France, Germany are all playing first round in the greater Guangzhou area.

Still hoping that the FIBA committee allows Jordan Clarkson to play for the Philippines.
So far, he's classified as a naturalized player, even though he has Filipino lineage, and only one is allowed per team, I believe, and in our case, it's Andray Blatche.

They clearly are looking for a C (or maybe D) level team so who the heck knows.
