In today's NBA league, international players are quite strong. In the regular season MVP list, Jokic, Alphabet Brother, Embiid, Doncic and others are popular candidates. Conversely, as James, KD and others have gotten older, Native American stars have declined in the NBA.
Just today, former Lakers veteran Quinn Cook posted a picture on Twitter. The five players in the picture are Doncic (Slovenia), Embiid (soon to be naturalized in France), Jokic (Serbia), Alphabet Brother (Greece), and Bojan Bogdanovic (Croatia). Quinn Cook wrote: "Pick five American players who can beat this lineup. ”
Quinn Cook's lineup is arguably the strongest European five in the NBA. Embiid, Jokic and Alphabet Brother are the three best players in the NBA this season. They are also the NBA's best interior players. Considering the lack of quality interiors on the U.S. mainland right now, at this point, it's really hard to find U.S. players who can match their abilities.
For Quinn Cook's lineup of international players, which five players do you think should be sent to win the series?
