FIBA Stanković Continental Champions' Cup

The FIBA Stanković Continental Champions’ Cup, also known as the FIBA Mini Basketball World Cup, is an international tournament of basketball for men's national teams, that is held annually by the International Basketball Federation (FIBA). The idea for the tournament came from Dr. Carl Men Ky Ching, President of FIBA, and the purpose of the Cup was to honor Serbian Borislav Stanković, the FIBA Secretary General Emeritus, for his significant contribution to the world of basketball. Being the only Chinese President of the 28 International Sports Federations, Dr. Ching selected China as the host country for the Cup. The Cup is organised to promote basketball in that country, and to provide an opportunity for the China men's national basketball team, to compete with other top national teams from all around the world, at the highest level.

Not to be confused with the FIBA Asia Stanković Cup which is only open for Asian national teams.

gollark: Hmm, maybe if an invalid command is detected, it should just pick the nearest one (by... Levenstein, however you spell that, distance of bytestrings representing each command? or maybe just the difference in codepoints) and run that.
gollark: You have such great command ideas!
gollark: You need a complex runtime which also has an interpreter.
gollark: oh, I like that.
gollark: I was thinking λ and something to do with lambda calculus.
