Best New Zealand Player Ever? To me its Pero Cameron:

Cameron was first selected for the Tall Blacks in 1992. In 2000, for the Sydney Olympics he became co-captain of the side, and was elevated to sole captain the following year. Arguably his most memorable moment as Captain of the NZ Team came in 2002 when the national team stunned the basketball world by making the semi finals of the World Championships eventually losing to Germany for 4th place. Cameron averaged 14.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 3.6 assists in the tournament, and became the only non-NBA player to make the all-tournament team.

He was joined on this team by established NBA superstars Dirk Nowitzki and Peja Stojakovic and NBA rookies-to-be Yao Ming and Emanuel Ginobili.

He has played in 2 Olympic Games: Sydney 2000, Athens 2004 and 3 World Championships: 2002, 2006, 2010.

I got to see this guy play a few times before he retired for the NZ Breakers. Got his jersey retired last year. In person he's a pretty big dude lol.

Well deserved.

OMG!! I just noticed you updated your location.... COOL!!!! You must be the first New Zealander on OTR! :dribble: Man, I'm a die-hard fan of all New Zealand team sports: All-Whites, Tall-Blacks, Tall Fearns and, of course, the All-Blacks (I believe you've noticed my IRB Rugby World Cup thread)! It's such a shame you didn't join during the World Cup so we could discuss it... :(

Hey man, it'd good to be here, lovin the forum so far, you guys got a good thing going here :D

 

That's cool as bro, do you have ties with NZ/you originally from here? Wishing i'd joined earlier to get some of that rugby discussion going. It was a crazy two months here in Auckland man, if you saw the opening ceremony you'd know it was amazing. Downtown and the wharf was so packed I was almost pushed off into the water amongst all the festivities haha. Had no doubt the ABs were gonna win it all though :P
