who are the best non-american players per position?

[jzek]

Doesn't matter whether they're playing in the NBA or not.

So far I have:

PG - Dragic
SG - ?
SF - ?
PF - ?
C - ?


I have Dirk, Ibaka, and the Gasol brothers but I'm not sure if they're the best PF/C or there's somebody else. :confusedshrug:

[Milbuck]

PG - Dragic
SG - Ginobili
SF - Deng
PF - Dirk
C - Pekovic

That's off the top of my head, I'm almost positive I'm forgetting guys.

[TheReal Kendall]

PG - Dragic
SG - Ginobili
SF - Deng
PF - Dirk
C - Pekovic

That's off the top of my head, I'm almost positive I'm forgetting guys.

Duncan

[Yankstar]

PG - Dragic
SG - Ginobili
SF - Deng
PF - Dirk
C - Pekovic

That's off the top of my head, I'm almost positive I'm forgetting guys.

No love for Parker?

[Eric Cartman]

Dragic/Parker
Ginobili/Bellineli
Batum/Gallinari
Dirk/Ibaka
Roy Hibbert/ Pekovic

[Milbuck]

Varsporlius is up there, but once again, we gotta adjust for quality of competition. Euroleague amateurs =/= NBA pros :confusedshrug:

[DaSeba5]

Duncan

The Virgin Islands is part of the US.

[Milbuck]

No love for Parker?
Healthy, in-form TP is obviously the better player, so far this season Dragic has been better.

[DaSeba5]

Dragic/Parker
Ginobili/Bellineli
Batum/Gallinari
Dirk/Ibaka
Roy Hibbert/ Pekovic

Hibbert was born in the US. He became a dual citizen of Jamaica, but he is American.

[Milbuck]

:wtf: Wait shit is this an all-time list? I thought this was current players, and by not playing in the NBA I thought you meant players outside the US..

[TheReal Kendall]

The Virgin Islands is part of the US.

Oh my bad. Arvydas Sabonis? I would replace Dragic with Tony Parker also unless we're talking about the this season

[mr.big35]

PG - Dragic
SG - Ginobili
SF - Deng
PF - Dirk
C - Pekovic

That's off the top of my head, I'm almost positive I'm forgetting guys.

no giannis in your squad

[MavsSuperFan]

The Virgin Islands is part of the US.
dat imperialism :pimp: :hammertime:

[waseem780]

PG - Dragic
SG - Ginobili
SF - Deng
PF - Dirk
C - Pekovic

That's off the top of my head, I'm almost positive I'm forgetting guys.
No Giannis?

[Harison]

Hakeem as a center, he was born in Nigeria.
Nash was born in South Africa.

[DaSeba5]

If we're doing all time:

Nash/Parker
Manu/Petrovic/Blackman
Kukoc/Schrempf/Stojakovic
Dirk/Gasol
Hakeem/Ewing/Mutombo/Ming/Divac

[Milbuck]

no giannis in your squad

No Giannis?

My boy's gotta prove himself. Deng's been an all-star, been to the conference finals, all that shit. Giannis talent-wise is on a GOAT tier, but he's gotta collect some hardware. A scoring title, ROTY, DPOY, MVP, or FMVP this season would earn him a spot.

[Yankstar]

If we're doing all time:

Nash/Parker
Manu/Petrovic/Blackman
Kukoc/Schrempf/Stojakovic
Dirk/Gasol
Hakeem/Ewing/Mutombo/Ming/Divac

Dirk/Gasol?

What are you smoking which makes you think Pau is in the same stratosphere as Dirk?
:biggums:

[DaSeba5]

Dirk/Gasol?

:biggums:

He's the back-up. In other words, the 2nd best foreign PF of all time.

[ImKobe]

Hakeem as a center, he was born in Nigeria.
Nash was born in South Africa.

I'm sure OP is talking currently, otherwise Sabonis & Peja would be there.

[Black and White]

Vartipous Spaghettilouosoius is the best player in the world, so naturally he belongs on everybodys lists

[Yankstar]

He's the back-up. In other words, the 2nd best foreign PF of all time.

With the DOPY win for Marc I would say he deserves to be ahead of Pau as reserve. TBH Pau won't make the HoF at this rate, 17-0 with out Kobe, leading them to bottom in the west this year.

Except when doing an all-time roster, Marc Gasol is a center unless you put him at PF. Who at center on my list would you replace for Marc Gasol? Either way Pau Gasol still sits in that PF spot.

[Nash]

V-Span
V-Span
Anthony Parker
Antetekomobo
Sofoklis, fat Shaq

[Milbuck]

I hope you were being serious, because 1 of those guys is NO joke.

[buddha]

Steve Nash / Tony Parker
Manu Ginobili / Goran Dragic
Peja Stojakovic / Andrei Kirilenko / Detlef Schrimpf
Dirk Nowitzki / Pau Gasol
Hakeem Olajuwon / Patrick Ewing / Yao Ming

[wally_world]

Noah has to be the center

Dragic
Ginobili
Deng
Dirk
Noah

[T_L_P]

Steve Nash
Manu Ginobili
Deng(?)
Tim Duncan
Hakeem Olajuwon

[East_Stone_Ya]

are we talking all time or just now?

[wally_world]

OP listed Dragic, Ibaka, Gasol brothers so I'm guessing current players.

[16X]

Look at me everyone! I keep spelling a guy's name wrong on purpose. I'm hilarious :facepalm

[DJ Leon Smith]

I'd put Bogut as the C but I'm biased towards Aussies.
