Hey Mark
I like how you said, "North American cities" :-)
and
the World Chanpionships are played by teams that represent their countries.
The NBA championship are played by two teams from cities..
oh, did i mention....players in the world championships play for pride of there nation instead of $$$$$$.
Lets see this year the NBA has decided to allow zones, the rules of FIBA have allowed this for years. Secondly, the intoduction of no-cylinder is new for the NBA. In play around the world a shot may be rebounded as soon as the ball has hit the ring. This may seem like a bad move, but trust me from someone who refs both the "is it in the cylinder" question is nice to get away from.
