[QUOTE="Brigantine, post: 838548, member: 73940"] The Sunwolves have a base in Singapore, I'm sure the Lelos would have a base in southern Africa in the same way. And longer term, SR are looking to expand to even more teams, and presumably that implies even fewer games outside your own conference anyway, reducing the significance of the geographic distance to other conferences. They also talk about rivalries... If SR are investigating a Georgian team, I can only imagine they're also thinking about adding a Russian team in the following expansion. That all still leads to far, far more travel than any European competition would take seriously, but for SR that horse has bolted already. [/QUOTE]
