Tall Blacks name 14 man squad to tour Europe

except Jackson has signed & commited long term to NZ and has publicly said he'd like to play international ball for the Tall Blacks Vs Kyrie Irvings continual "keeping my options open" statements closely followed by him accepting a roster spot for Team USA.

If re-opening the 'Kyrie Irving' Pandora's Box hyperthetical naturalisation debate is also still on the table, then also yes... :)

The 'potential' team could have been very good.

Two positions are going to let us down - PG and C.

Add Cedric Jackson (wouldn't he be great) and Adams to that squad and you have nice balance and strength at each position.

PG is a really really big problem for us.

Let's be honest - Tait, Kenny, Ili rotation is laughable next to Delly, Mills, Gibson.

I must say i agree with Boty on Inside the Game that Cooper should start and Garlepp should split the minutes with him so Ballinger can play his natural position of PF.
Id go for rotations of

C Cooper(20mins)/Garlepp (20 mins) - we really need Burston back.
PF Ballinger (32 mins)/Holmes (8 Mins)
SF Holmes (17 mins)/Hill (23 mins)
SG Groves (8 mins)/Ng (17 mins)/Herbert (15 mins)
PG Gilchrist (23 mins)/Groves (17 mins)

That would be more balanced than having Ballinger and Holmes as our 2 bigs, and Gilchrist minutes of on form i would increase to around 30, as i believe for us to win Ballinger needs to average 15-20 points, Gilchrist and or Groves needs to get around 15 with the other getting atleast 10, and you need around 8-10points from at least 3 of Holmes, Hill,Ng and Herbert.
They ALL need to play some intense defence, not just guys like Holmes, who plays hard on defense and rebounding every game everyone needs to follow wiht that.
