For the first time in NBA history, the top 3 players are arguably internationally born. How do you feel about this?

Luka is not a top 3 player.

No one Stans or hates international players

They don’t create engagement

Giannis and Luka are 4th and 5th best selling jerseys domestically this year. Probably higher than that globally. The fans who buy jerseys ,tickets , and broadcasting packages to games seem to be pretty engaged.

If the best players competing for chips every year are international watch NBA interest decline

Smilies, deflections, and insults are not it.

Yeah, two full regular seasons later, the takes in this thread aged poorly.

The same three players mentioned in OP were 1st team all NBA this season.
And Giannis and Luka made it last year as well.

MFers have no idea what they're talking about and try to hide it with smilies and jokes.

Now it's not even debatable that the top 5 are all born outside the US
SGA
Luka
Giannis
Jokic
Embiid

Those are the 5 top players in the NBA. Period. Would've 100% been the top 5 for MVP this year if Embiid didn't get injured too.
Wemby is for sure going to the be a top 5 player in the NBA very soon as well and probably the best player overall in just a few years

 

[ECA]

Luka & Jokic

Giannis
KD
Embiid
Curry
Bron
Kawhi (when healthy)
AD (when healthy)


Then maybe Luka & Jokic. Hell I’d take KAT over Jokic

Lmaoooo

Jayson Tatum is a top 5 player also. Made last 3 All NBA 1 teams.
