You can't throw mud without getting yourself dirty...
You would expect anyone doing something full time to be better at that activity than a person doing the same thing part-time.
I am sure that, given the opportunity to do it full time, most FIBA officials would make it in NBA. Then again, I am sure there are NBA officials who, if they could not commit to it full-time, would not cut it at FIBA competitions.
The fact remains that overall, this WC has probably seen the best officiating yet.
I would agree with those who say that you don't pour crap on one group of officials in order to make another one look better. This goes as much for dave as it does for bktballref.
