Re: 30 top international players - But wheres Deke
I don't know why people list the US Virgin islands as "international"
Hes still a US citizen, has a US passport, and has US rights. (Except being able to vote in presidential elections in the USVI, but still be able to vote in primary elections)

Isn't that like having a permanent residency? If that is the case, then Virgin Islands born individuals are not really US citizens. Hmm..., is it because Deke is a citizen of USA now, therefore he is not an international player anymore?

I'm okay with them calling Duncan foreign. If he was from Puerto Rico and spoke Spanish (and poor English), I think most people would be okay with it too.

Its players born outside the US.(ie Duncan is now a US citizen(i think) & Nash has South African flag not the Canadian one next to him.

Re: 30 top international players - But wheres Deke
Maybe they should change the title to 30 Top International Players UNDER 40!
In all seriousness you can easily make an argument without question that he should replace Rasho. He could also replace some of the other bigs but this list is pretty good though.
