Basketball is very good, do you like EuroBasket, it started in1932, with the first championship in 1935.

Wow I was just about to ask you that! I'm really into their games. I might even try to play for them myself.

Any certain country you hope to play for? I know Lithuania and Egypt have won and hosted tournaments in the past.

Yeah I would love to try for Lithuania. I had no idea basketball has been in Europe so long. It feels like a modern sport to me.

It's been around quite a bit since the days of Julius Erving and shooting into actual baskets. Russia dominated UroBasket for many years in the 1940's and 1950's.

Julius Erving really brought the sport to the forefront though and made it a national thing, wand mordernized it.
