BigV Pre-Season Tournament
Because it's rubbish! Players get injured. The short Half running clock doesn't allow teams to play their roster, barely even work up a sweat. And teams are not going to pay to for it when the prize money is less than the entry fee. Bigv ruined it, they got greedy.
This tournament just keeps getting worse by the year. More and more teams do not bother with it as it is simply too close to the start of the season and the risk of injury is just too great.
So many clubs are opting out of it that it won't be sustainable for much longer. This would be a pity as in it's inaugural years it was a terrific event. Not any more!
It has been reported on fiba.com that Miami Heat Forwards Michael Beasley and Udonis Haslem are being chased buy Puerto Rico as they have Puerto Rican Heritage. Well Chris Kaman did it. What are you guys thoughts. It would be a pretty decent line-up.
