You can have an augment about not having basketball in the Olympics, but i don't see the point of having a sport where the best are not allowed to compete.
It's the reason softball was removed from the Olympics - lack of competition. Basketball is just as bad if not worse.

The only reason basketball sticks around is because I'm sure it's a big ratings draw in North America and Europe.
