Did you not Watch the last Centrobasket? Belize, Jamaica, British virgin Island just to mention a few of the teams that performed better than Cuba and still didn't qualified for the second Round. Centrobasket Officials wanted Cuba in the second round for economical and political reasons. Cuba has major influence on the Caribbean

I would be happy if the FIBA Americas website would be working properly. They always had problems in the past and I told them even about it...but Puerto Ricans are stubborn people. They dont give a f.... if the website runs at night and out of their time zone.

Top three.

Bahamas and USVI play for the championship while Jamaica and BVI are battling out the last open spot for the Centrobasket.
How many teams will be in the Centrobasket? Eight or ten?

I'm missing DR, PR, Cuba and Panama as well as Mexico...how do they qualify? Costa Rica and Nicaragua qualified for phase 2 of the COCABA Champs...but when did they play phase 2? Questions...
