More proof we need to draft foreigners?

Giannis, Dirk. Duncan. Avoid AAU coddled babies and Klutch clowns. Go all international. Embrace Nola’s uniqueness and don’t try to compete with the glamour markets.
Be something completely different.
I personally don’t like most American born star nba players.
Who is likable out of these guys?
Irving
Durant
Harden
Simmons
Davis
Lebron
Kawhi
George
All either quit on their teams. Are narcissists of the highest order or just completely weird.
Very few guys like Curry, Klay, Beal, Lillard who don’t bitch constantly about joining a super team.

“Who’s likable out of this cherry picked list of unlikable superstars?”

You could make the case that the biggest prima donna in the NBA is from Slovenia

Yeah let's just get good players

Luka is one of the best cry babies in league and is by far the best international player in the nba. Your rant and bitching is worthless

Giannis just put up 50 and 14 in a finals clinching game. Howd you forget about him already

Didn’t forget just my bias opinion lol I like luka a tad bit more than giannis

Well, you are extremely wrong at this point in their careers.

Isn’t Irving born in Australia as well
Posted on 7/21/21 at 11:07 am to PrayingMantis
He is an American though.

Duncan
Duncan is from a US territory and played college basketball at Wake Forrest. That’s really stretching the definition of “foreigner”
The man was on Team USA at the 04 Olympics.
Irving and Simmons aren’t Americans.

Irving
Kyrie Irving is American and has played on Team USA.

2nd, likeability is irrelevant, tell me what they've won. A quick glance from that list of 8 dudes, they have around 11 titles I believe.
5 of the 8 dudes have at least 1 title.
quote:2 of these 4 dudes have a title.

That's all that matters, can they win...the list on top wins just as much, if not more than the likeable guys you posted.

quote:Simmons also went to high school in America. I think OP is referring to the ultra sense of entitlement by American players or players who have been here since they were teenagers. A lot of these European players do seem to be more team oriented and don’t forget where the came from and how grateful they are to just be in the league
Simmons is a foreigner...

Would be the greatest team ever and sell out every game.

ETA: the answer is 2, 3 if you want to count LeBron after he decided to go back to the team that drafted him after leaving initially.
