Yes... if you work hard.\nPat Burke and Robert Archibald were the only two players from the United Kingdom to play NBA basketball. Pat Burke still plays for the Phoenix Suns. Burke also had played for the Magic at one time is his career.

I think in Spain, as long as the club has not used up it's quota of non-EU players registered, it is ok for a US citizen to play for them.\n\nDepends on the club really.

I am not sure.  I know Wales has hopes due to the Ospreys victory.  I'm kind of torn.  I have a good friend from Wales, but our rugby club's coach is from Australia.

I remember the trapizoid lanes, and the difference in the size, and material of the ball.  It'll be very difficult for the US to win.  Our guys have grown up playing by different rules, and the lanes being the way they are, makes the game much more different than one may believe.  Our greatest chance is to send the best NBA team, with a starting 5 of US players.  For example, the Heat or the Pistons last yr.  This is just wishful thinking but it's what I'm thinking, lol.  Even with those teams, and the single elimination, it would still be difficult for an NBA team to go over there and win.

There might not be any courts set up yet at http://www.hoopsfinder.com , but you may want to register and list a few games there so that other people with the same question can find a game in the future.

NEED to watch the Laker Game?\n\nNO, I think you already know the answer.  You need to sacrifice some immediate pleasures to ensure your longterm happiness.

If you reside in the country for (I think) more than 7 years, you can become a national player if you become a resident.\n\nAs for the question of "Who can they play for?" the answer lies in parents and grandparents. Michael Owen was actually born in Wales, and I'm sure Wayne Rooney (Rooney is an Irish name) has Irish heritage, he could probably have played for them if he'd wished.\n\nAnother interesting point - Lukas Podolski, Oliver Neuville and Miroslav Klose were all born in Poland, yet they play for Germany due to their ancestry.

The USA don't get to play many competitive games that affect their rating outside of their own group region and because the quality of their opposition is lacking, then they win a lot which gives them the points to move up in the rankings. For instance, if Scotland or Wales were regularly placed in groups that contained teams made up of dead people, girls and the elderly then they would shoot up the rankings also. Mind up, they probably still would struggle in some of those games.

If they choose to compete as separate nations, that's fine.  Besides, a UK team would be dominated by the English, so what benefit would Scottish, Northern Irish, and Welsh players get?
