Sam Neter of Hoopsfix.com has started a campaign to try and get Britain supporting the Team GB Basketball squad.

"The British basketball team are the only Brits not to qualify automatically for London 2012 Olympics.

To even get a spot the "host" team have to play four crucial games in August. Outrage!

So if they have to play to get in we're gonna make sure they play with the biggest crowds and create an atmosphere never before seen. C'mon Britain, Back British Basketball and let's cheer our team to a gold."

Please visit his site and see how you can get involved in spreading the word, from simply adding a twibbon to your twitter, joining the Facebook page or simply chatting about British Basketball, lets try and be the 6th Man for Team GB.
