This is not quota system made up. Fulani are dumbass. Super Eagles were doing well untill quota system enter it.

Calm down mumu. You don't need to expose your ignorance. These are all American based players playing in nba.
The only connection they have with Nigeria is their parent.

It seems you haven’t been following Nigerian games. Our problem has never been within the box, it’s always been have players that can play from the perimeter when it matters. Thats why we loose many games because we always struggle outside the perimeter. Feels good to know that we have players that can now contribute from the perimeter.
Very correct. Having players that can do the 3 pointers for a change gives a lot of hope. Having 2 to 3 players who are good in outside perimeter throws is very valuable

This is quality human capital.

Not the type where you just accumulates milllons and millions of invalids that are only useful during voting and you are telling us about your numerical strength.

Igbo no dey vote, igbos don't have voting importance, e.tc., but they dominate your most useful demographics.

Yeye dey smell.

Show me any line up of D'tigers with 5 Yorubas. I am waiting
GEEBITE:
Your statement is implicit because we have always had about 5 lads with Yoruba ancestry in D"tigers. Dropping AlFarouq's name in response to that tribalist especially in the context you used it tends toward an assumption that he is from the North. The guy you responded to was clearly taking a swipe at North for their quota system beliefs.

So Bam, Tatum, Lilliard, Beal and Durant that started the game are called moons? Even Booker dey bench.

Learn how to appreciate your own. We won this game even trailing by 9 points. Even shooting 20 3s is very impressive for an international game.
I'm happy for the Win. But what I'm saying is that we should also beat them when it matters. I appreciate the victory. But winning get levels. It'll just be like Arsenal beating Bayern Munich in a friendly match and making noise.

The full Team USA roster includes: Bam Adebayo (Miami Heat), Bradley Beal (Washington Wizards), Devin Booker (Phoenix Suns), Kevin Durant (Brooklyn Nets), Jerami Grant (Detroit Pistons), Draymond Green (Golden State Warriors), Jrue Holiday (Milwaukee Bucks), Zach LaVine (Chicago Bulls), Damian Lillard (Portland Trail Blazers), Kevin Love (Cleveland Cavaliers), Khris Middleton (Milwaukee Bucks) and Jayson Tatum (Boston Celtics).

This list is fake... Khris Middleton, Jrue Holiday and Devin Booker are busy with the NBA Finals with Game 3 coming up in hours... How can they be part of the said lineup?

USA is a far stronger team, Rome wasn't built in a day. We know the NBA, what's the name of Nigeria's local basketball league? You have to factor in all these.

There are two sets of lists there. There are 15 person lists from both teams. That's their full roster for the Olympics. Then there are 5 man lists from both teams. Those are the starting line up for this game.

I hope it's clear now.

where they reside is not the issue my friend....The issue is let the best lead if you want the best..... Northerners and quota system has really set us back in this country that sometimes I wonder if we will ever be able to undo the damages quota system has done to our nation

so you expect USA to play a serious match and get injured abi.....Nigerians are jokers
No Africa team has ever won US, not on a serious match or friendly.

U think US will want to loose to an Africa team because it's a friendly.
