    I think it is Dirk with Yao on his tail. Dirk has better handles, better range, and a better overall shot. Yao is a better defender just due to his size and better down low. Dirk has taken his team to the finals and with the game on the line it is a lot easier to get him the ball. Plus he always gets calls which yao does not seem to get. A few years ago I couldn't imagine Yao would be this good already.

    Nash and Duncan played for us colleges they really aren't foreign players. I am talking about guys who came into the nba from a foreign league.

    I don't get the rule against foreign players who went to US colleges not being allowed on this list.

    Hakeem went to US College - he's foreign, isn't he?
    Dikembe at Georgetown???
    Nash at Santa Clara

    Almost everybody goes to U.S. colleges these days - they're still foreign in my books.

    Dirk
    Yao
    Nash
    Gasol

    Parker, Stojakovic, Ginobli

    For me foreign means that they cannot play for the american national team.

    oh **** nowitzki...

    what a whiner and a choker.

    he might be a good player i guess but i am a hater and i will never give him anything but constant, scrutinizing hate.
