Methinks you may have mis-understood him.
Actyally, methinks you're right. I mis-understood. That's what I get for trying to act awake before 8:30 am.

Juulie, you didn't read the remark in parentheses, even if you quoted it!

Just to be on the safe side, now it should be past breakfast time for you:
for FIBA, team A's basket is the one where team B is shooting; for you it's the one where team A is shooting. Probably FIBA chose this way just to be different.

Ciao
