1. Dirk Nowitzki
2. Steve Nash
3. Pau Gasol

13. Serge Ibaka
14. Mikael Pietrus
15. Danilo Gallinari

Top 15 cuz i can't think of very many more international players. I'm sure there are plenty more worth mentioning in the top 15, and i'm probably forgetting someone big, but this is all i care to think of off the top of my head.

Sefalosha and Ibaka are good, but prolly not top 15... I think he just forgot Tony Parker...

hahahah my bad, obviously he was on the top...

I love seeing Barbosa on the list cuz he's Brazillian :) but dunno if he's top 15...

I think worth mentioning:

Noah, Kaman, Scola (he is def top 15) and Nene

I put Ibaka so high because i value defense. But yeah i definitely forgot scola, and nene should probably be in there too. i'm about to edit that.

And should we count Tim Duncan as international? He's from the virgin islands if i remember correctly

Did you just say some of the best defensive players in the NBA are not top 30 Non-American? Ibaka can also play some offense, KD and Westrbrook get the ball most of the time though, he averaged what, over 3BPG last season? He's young, developing still.

No, I dunno where u got that idea, I said he MAY not be top 15, its questionable... i love Ibaka, he had a great regular season, later in the POs he wasnt as good, but as u said, he is young, coming into the league, still gonna improve quite a bit...

He should have been defensive player of the year, Chandler got it instead, but in a funny way, I laughed because Ibaka was 1st team All-Defense, Chandler was 2nd team. Hah

Hehehe prolly cuz Chandler is older in the league and Ibaka just came in, but ur right Ibaka was awesome on def last season... He wasnt nearly as good on the POs, especially later in the POs, but he is still a great player nonetheless and he will improve even more, hope he stays in OKC
