[1]In the past ten years, America's National Basketball Association(NBA)has grown increasingly dependent on the rest of the world to supply players．
[2]When Larry Bird and Michael Jordan won gold in Barcelona last century, the Americans were praised for teaching the worlds how to play basketball．This season, however, 20 percent of NBA rosters(花名册)will be filled by non-Americans．NBA commissioner David Stem happily embraces the trend．On a visit to Paris in October, Stem outlined his vision for the future, which is likely to see more European countries hosting NBA games by 2015．
