FIBA rule that only 1 naturalised player can play for any one country.

I wonder why we can only take one naturalised player.
I'd be curious to know how that works?

Andersen is way better than Wortho, but they are also different types of players. Andersen is a centre/forward. Keep in mind Andersen is one of the best big men in Europe - and on one of the top teams at that! Both men will make the team.

Schenscher has potential - unrealised at that. He will not make the Boomers team for Beijing as he is clearly behind Bogut and Andersen. Anstey will play off the bench. Bogut, Andersen, Nielson and Anstey provide variety as they are all different types of players THAT CAN AND DO SCORE in many different ways. Options galore. Schenscher is limited in scoring ability and is a solid role player at best.

Mee's height the only thing I see going for him. We can only take one naturalised player and hence it is either Mee or Redhage. I would take Redhage.

Starting lineup will look like this IMO:

C Bogut
F Andersen
F Worthington
G Newley
G Bruton

Nielson, Anstey and Mills off the bench will play big minutes.

Ingles over Barlow? You have got to be joking. Ingles may be working hard on his game, but over the past 12 months Barlow has performed way above the level of Ingles.
IF Ingles does make it (and he is still a good chance), he will only be player 11 or 12 at best.

So sign them to get clicks and be a gimmick?

Thought we are running a basketball league not a Snapchat channel
