Afam4eva: This Angolan team will really be difficult to beat. I hope we don't meet them in the semis.I think Nigeria will meet Egypt or Cape verde in the semis if they beat Senegal. |

Sagamite: Senegal is another force to reckon with in African basketball, they're next after Angola. If my memory serves me well, they knocked our team out of last season's championship. Wishing them all the best in their match tonight (hope I'm awake to watch it ). I know say one day one day we go defeat that Angolan team. Go tigers go !!! 1 Like |

dominique:Senegal may be a force to be reckoned with but they're not next after Angola. That title belongs to Nigeria. Angola has always been our waterloo. |

Going by the law of averages, I know that one day D'Tigers will overcome their Angolan hoodoo; just like the Super Eagles overcame their Cameroonian hoodoo in football. |

dominique:Yes, Senegal is a force to be reckoned with in African Basket ball.They have won this tournament 5 times, but that was a very long time ago.Currently, Nigeria is ahead of them, we are just behind Angola, but like someone said, we have also defeated Angola in the AAG. |

CFCfan: Going by the law of averages, I know that one day D'Tigers will overcome their Angolan hoodoo; just like the Super Eagles overcame their Cameroonian hoodoo in football. Cameroun dey fire our yansh anytime they meet us for ANC final na, and dem don win more ANC than us. I don't see us overcoming Angola anytime soon. They simply dominate and are that good. The only way we can overcome them soon is to drastically review our funding and reward programme for basketball so we can attract the best Nigerian-American basketballers to play for Nigeria. The thing there is that outside the NBA and some few major Europe-based basketball leagues (Spain, Italy, Russia and Greece), many basketball players don't make alot of money. In America, if you are not in the NBA, the next layer of leagues (minor leagues) hardly pay you over $30K per year. In Europe, only the top elite players get paid top pay, which are effectively the equivalent of lower paid NBA players ($1.3m). Majority of average and lower paid basketball players in Europe hardly make over $300K. Many less than $100K. So if Nigeria was to reward players with roughly maximum $50K (if they win tournaments) to play for the national team annually, we would increase and improve the talent of players coming to play for us. That is big money to many basketballers. We cannot compete with Angola because they have a far better local league than us. The only place we have advantage is the immense number of Nigerians in diaspora, of whom many are in America borning kids. Angola cannot compete with us on that, and many lower leagues in the US are better than Angolan league. Maybe even with that chicken change and improved successes, we could have attracted some NBA players like: Hakeem Olajuwon, Emeka Okafor, Andre Ighuodala etc. 1 Like |
