If they manage to become good players, they could cause an explosion of basketball craze in India, just like in China?

Thoughts/comments?

If they do become top class players, NBA will profit most of this. Yet another huge market for them. And I could bet that if they (or one of them) are included in NBA All-Star voting, they won't have any troubles getting there.

Anyway, it would definitely make India more aware of the sport and their national team should become better too.

^ Yep, that can only be a good thing. It would be great to see a WC where the quality of teams is appreciably strong everywhere, not just when it comes to say, the top 16 only...

Sim Bhullar just signed with the Sacramento Kings. Four years later I have to say good call on this, Zeus.

Well whether he becomes a good player in the NBA or not, penetration into the market of India is hoped for to raise profits
