Stattman by all reports was solid. Ducas did well to impress. Obviously Green was the standout. Wish I could have been there.

Basketball is played according to the way we are brought up and the athletes available in the countries they play in. In Europe it is tough and physical with lots of great shooters on the perimeter while in Australia we adopt a team oriented game with our team offense and team defense based on team performance, however in the USA it's all about athleticism and centred on the stars of the team with others assisting the main scorers as role players.

The rules are basically the same, however officiating appears to go along the lines of how basketball is seen to be played with European referees allowing physical holding and blocking more than in other continents, in Australia the officials will let it go but at the same time pull up technical travel calls and alike while in the USA it's an open running style of play that encourages officials to call those contact fouls or holds, but you would be very unlucky to have a travel call against you, especially when you score with an athletic move like a 360 dgree spin and dunk from the foul line...
