Duncan doesnt count

What about Ewing. And, of course, Toni Kukoc.

Ewing doesnt count either

Kukoc could probably be the SF on either team but he missed the cut

Come on Chuck...how do you leave off...

He is on my athletes as actors list

No Dunking Dutchman?? :D

Best International Players never to play in NBA

Oscar Schmidt--brazillian larry bird
Dejan Bodiroga---serbian/european Magic Johnson

its also a crime that I couldnt find a spot for Rik Smits

what worse of a crime is a spot for Uwe Blab

it should be non americans who didnt play NCAA ball, then again it would cause confusion oh well

You did enough damage by making sabonis a small forward

Oscar Schmidt was closer to the Brazilian Kiki Vandeweghe than Larry Bird.

And by the way Vandeweghe is an American

I thought he was German

His Dad played in the NBA and his mom was a Miss usa or something. He was born there but he is an American

Manute Bol

He's gotta be on the list...also the worlds tallest jockey:



The man could do it all!:eek:

I thought you were going to plug for Bill Wennington

I was:D He got 3 NBA championship rings with the Bulls. How many does Yao have???????

Those all look good imo.
Sabonis would not make the list
if just the NBA career counts.

Im glad Seatlle remembered the Sarunis M.
As I remember he got hurt he would have
been way up there. Cant put Petrovic up
that far, he did not play long enough.

The MVP of course would be Hakeem.

All the names on the list seem good, except for one HUGE oversight-

Dikembe Motumbo... 'nuff said

If Sabonis makes an NBA list, Motumbo has to be ahead of him.
If Sabonis good years before the NBA count, it would be very
hard to rate him.

the flying elbow

Mutumbo is behind hakeem and Yao.

Where is

Anderson Varejao
Vitali Potapenko (The Ukraine Train)
Zydrunas Ilgauskas ( The Big Z)

In the NBA game a guy like Mutumbo would certainly have value. In International play though I'd put a better passer that can do more away from the hoop like Vlade Divac ahead of him.

Left out.

Varejao will be on the upcoming all flopper team and will start on the all-hair team.

then you have to start using players like Dino Radja, Rick Fox, Jose Ortiz, Carlos Arroyo, Nene, Nocioni, Scolla, Oberto, hell even Luc longley had a decent NBA career. I mean hell we havent even gotten to Andrei Kirilenko

Kirilenko has the best setup of all time. He has a hot wife, and the hot wife lets him bang other chicks on his birthday, one time a year.

How great is that

all-flop team #1 draft pick... Vlade Divac

I think Bill Walton was born on Mars so throw him in there

I must have missed the story when Jamaica became the 51st state.

Some of those guys dont even make honorable mention...

we didnt say name every foreign guy to ever play in the NBA

dude, NBA players are regularly banging hot chicks on every road trip (except i heard Sacremento really sucks)

He became an American when he was like 6. Plus its my team and I make the rules so the Carribean doesnt count. Eliminates Mycheal Thompson too

Big shot of him being on the all hair team
