Again, how could a nation of 300 mill bsketball crazy people almost get beaten by a nation of 40 mill hombres?

the population of a nation doesnt mean they have the best basketball players or china and india would be 1 and 2 in basketball(they have the two highest populations in the world).. also spain had the most nba players of any non-u.s. team- gasol, mark gasol(will play with the grizzlies this year), navarro, calderon, rudy fernandez,garbajosa, and rubio will be playing in a year or two so its not like they were just a bunch of scrubs..
