Team Canada roster announced

Not as exciting as team USA. But in honor of Canada Day (the holiday Mutoni mentioned before. I looked it up and everything. I personally think Dominion day is a much cooler name for it.) But yeah, Samuel Dalembert! Joel Anthony!

    wait… they called the National Holiday ‘Canada Day’? thats less original than, well, nothing I can think of.

  • Hursty Posted: Jun.30 at 8:52 am
    Wikipedia= ‘looking up’? Real thorough research Ben :)

  • Hursty Posted: Jun.30 at 8:56 am
    Im not sure where I got the ‘Ben’ from…. my bad. Quebec sounds like a place in the Middle east. Probably Sam.

  • Sam Rubenstein Posted: Jun.30 at 8:59 am
    1. Yes it was me
    2. After further review, as the 100% at all times accurate wikipedia says, Canada day is TOMORROW. Whooops!

    stupid semi/double post system.

  • Hursty Posted: Jun.30 at 9:26 am
    Dave Thomas plays in Australia for Melbourne.

  • LAN Posted: Jun.30 at 9:53 am
    wers nash? fellow australian i see hursty, dave thomas is awesome. i remember, the first nbl match i went to was daves debut

  • Niio Posted: Jun.30 at 9:53 am
    I thought Dave Thomas works for Wendy’s?

    What happened to Devoe Joseph?

  • Hursty Posted: Jun.30 at 10:03 am
    Aussie Pride LAN. Nash is retired from the International comp. dude is ageing and his back is fu*ked pretty bad.

    Snoozers. I wonder if the guys from the Basketball Jones will have some insight. Furthermore, way to fight for your independence, Canada. In America, we sack up and take it to the streets.

    Decent roster but once again lacking a true pg which puzzles me because tristan blackwood played very good for central conneticut and devoe joseph is probably going to wind up being the best canadian player not named nash leo rautins should stick to broadcasting

  • Tuomas Posted: Jun.30 at 11:16 am
    Any news about Dalembert shaving his head already? I wouldn’t want to see his playoff tragedy-of-a-haircut again.

  • Holly MacKenzie Posted: Jun.30 at 11:27 am
    Loving Rowan Barrett.

  • Alain Elie Posted: Jun.30 at 11:54 am
    Decent squad…how will Andy Rautins return post injury is the question

  • Danny Ferry Posted: Jun.30 at 12:17 pm
    where the fudge is juan mendez playing now?

  • thesubwayconnection Posted: Jun.30 at 12:22 pm
    Milk Carton: Jermaine Bucknor.

  • Vanilla Thunder Posted: Jun.30 at 1:04 pm
    Devoe is young, hasn’t even started college yet.

  • Sam Mitchell's Conscience Posted: Jun.30 at 4:29 pm
    yawn

  • FLUXLAND Posted: Jun.30 at 5:45 pm
    @Niio: he OWNED Wendy’s and he is also deceased. @Sam: huge YAWN… this team falls in the same category as Canadian soccer and rugby teams.. who friggin cares?!

  • Niio Posted: Jun.30 at 5:52 pm

    I remember when Jesse Young came to Five-Star Pitt II session back in the summer of 98 and took home MVP and other hardware. Where is he playing these days?
