Best international player since 2000

Hmmm....really hard considering the choices. But I go for a toss up between Dirk, Tim, and Manu. Dirk, cause he revolutionized the PF position and is just a straight up baller. Tim, for all his accomplishments and consistent play, and Manu because of his international accomplishments from 2000 to the present.

If you go by best player: Duncan
If you go by NBA accolades: Duncan
If you go by international accolades: Manu

Spurs=Class

[Venti Quattro]

Duncan is an American, right?

[pookenstein]

It's really simple.
If you see Tim as an international it's him by a mile. Otherwise it's Dirk.

[flipspursfan]

Duncan is an American, right?

I'm not familiar with the geography or the legal matters with this one, but he was born in the Virgin Islands. A nation with their own flag and national basketball team.

[scanry]

It's the United States Virgin Islands.

BTW the US should have just taken the Virgin Islands from Denmark instead of buying it.

[8FOR!3]

Gasol should be on this list instead of Duncan, who's an American citizen and the clear cut winner over all of those guys if he wasn't.

[mavs>spurs]

the best interracial player is blake's wife for fucking the entire utsa basketball squad tbh.

[whitemamba]

duncan was born an american citizen, hes not a fresh of the boat player.. gasol should be the option not duncan, but you can make a solid argument for all of them tbh

[Bynumite]

With Jim's american citizenship revoked after the US bronze medal fiasco... i say Dirk, Duncan's a close second though.

Kobe grew up in Italy and speaks fluent Italian and Spanish...so par for the course I pick Kobe.

[stretch]

Timmy isnt international.

Faggot spurfans.

[Latarian Milton]

^ true, he ain't no more a virgin islander since he married his black wife tbh

[Latarian Milton]

its kinda confusing to call them "international players" when what you mean is "players of foreign nationalities", guys like duncan and nash, and probably the 7'6 shit as well have basically nothing to contribute to their national sides since the teams never qualified to any major events on the international stage like olympics, FIBA world cup etc...

judging from their achievements in NBA though, tim duncan trumps them all if he's categorized as an "international player", with dirk being a distant 2nd place. although tim and dirk are of similar caliber in terms of individual abilities, the latter only got 1 ring his entire career versus tim's 4. the canadian fag got a double of MVP trophies but it at best puts him the 3rd place when his team never wins apeshit. Manu is a great player too, probably you would consider him the better player than anyone mentioned above in international games, while back in NBA he's no more than a #2 banana on his team imho

His wife is white tbh

[ploto]

Dirk for sure.

Duncan does not count. Not only is it the US Virgin Islands; he also played 4 years of college ball in the NCAA.

[lefty]

Dirk

[whitemamba]

Kobe grew up in Italy and speaks fluent Italian and Spanish...so par for the course I pick Kobe.

cant argue that tbh

Spurfan in disguise still chugging along even after being outed. I guess you're pot committed by now.

Kobe speaks fluent rape as well.

[ALVAREZ6]

Tim isn't international he's from the Virgin Islands. And played for the US team.

Therefore, it's Manu. Rings, bitches. Dirk only has 1 ring, Manu is 3 times as good as Dirk.

This guy is a dumb ass poster
