Last December, the FIBA Central Board gathered to listen to the bid presentations of the 2023 World Cup host finalists. On one side was the Asian consortium of the Philippines, Japan and Indonesia. On the other side was the partnership of Argentina and Uruguay. To avoid a vote that would’ve created tension and division, Baumann convinced the South American contingent to withdraw, handing the hosting rights to the Asian group. It appeared that the South American team had the upper hand if it went to a vote because FIBA president Horacio Muratore is from Argentina and immensely popular with the Central Board and besides, another Asian country China was slated to host in 2019. But Baumann worked his magic to give Asia the hosting rights back-to-back with the promise of Argentina and Uruguay gaining first crack at staging the 2027 World Cup.That's why Baumann was a very good friend of the Philippines. He is really the reason why Lass and Lutz was able to play as locals , hope the incoming sec gen would also be a reasonable person.

Just watch the MBA you will get an idea
How did we win the 2o23 hosting rights, one can argue a non Asian team should host but they didn'thosting would be entirely different from one getting eligibility.Don't get me wrong, I like JC playing as a local but saying that he'll be playing as a local because of no other effin reason but politics would be a bit wrong isn't it.For me I see it this way,now Baumann is gone, we should pray that the next Secretary general would be SBP friendly, otherwise then there's no bridge to burn so why don't we take it again to CAS.More technical and legal, less politics.

It is just the way negotiations are done in the real world

Kasama Philippines https://www.facebook.com/HoopsHype/v...0425826544377/. Now look at the members of the FIBA central board and ask your self what is important for them, to progress FIBA and the game?
