After watching alot of FIBA Basketball in the qualifiers right next to NBA conference finals, I really have to say playing under clear FIBA rules with mostly competent refs is refreshing to see, esp. compared against NBA playoff ruling (swallow your whiste). There's still physicality, but most of the wrestling matches, minor bumps, holds, grabs just go away when being called more strictly. It's more Basketball.
And it's natural that the best pure Basketball player in the world (if you take out the over-emphasized athletic factor in the NBA) shines on this stage.
