Impressions of new FIBA format.

I have only played a couple of games but I am really liking the format. It makes the game alot more fun with more teams and up to date rosters. Only thing I don't like is that they added NBA players who don't even play for their National teams.

I was really hoping Rubio would be on there. Not sure why they left him off, maybe something to do with his age.

Most, if not all of the FIBA teams have some discrepencies. I'd say there might have been some issues getting likeness rights for some of the players or their use of 2007 FIBA world rankings has resulted in some outdated squads.

Quick question, what courts do the FIBA teams play on?

And what is the format of the 'FIBA compeititon' in the game? A random generated 'playoff'?

The FIBA teams all play on the same FIBA themed court, which has accurate dimensions compared to last year which used the NBA three point line, etc.
