Nicknames for FIBA National Teams

Hi guys,

Does anyone know the official nicknames for these national teams? I am making a new National Teams mod for NBA Live 2003 based using the cyberfaces from TRU v2.0, which has ones i have been looking for for ages.

Angola
Nigeria (Eagles?)
Senegal
Brazil
Canada
Argentina
Puerto Rico
Venezuela
China
Israel
Lebanon
Qatar
Panama
Lithuania
Latvia
Croatia
Russia
Greece
Italy
France
Germany
Czech Republic
Ukraine
Slovenia

If any can help, please post the nickname of the teams you know.

Thanks!

Glancing at Wikipedia, it doesn't look like everyone has a nickname for their national basketball team, though granted it's not always a 100% reliable source. It does seem to make a point of mentioning nicknames when there is one though.

Cheers Andrew, i definitely remember in the Nteams 2003 mod they gave all the teams a nickname, so i guess they must have been made up.

Possibly, or they might have stopped using those nicknames the same way Team USA has dropped the "Dream Team" moniker.

I know Australia is the 'Boomers' and New Zealnd is the 'Tall Blacks', if you don't already have them.

I have those ones thanks, i found a few more like Bosnia, Turkey etc. But i think the country names is fine.
