Now i about the topic.
Since using naturalized player is ok with FIBA rules, you cant really call countries who use them as cheaters. However everyone has the right to have an opinion about this practise. In Europe it happens too (Holden of Russia recent big example), although me and i believe a big number of fans dont like this tendency. I think national federations should invest more into youth system, trying to increase the competitvness of local players rather than choosing the easy way.
