International NBA players

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Synthesis/non-encyclopedic essay. It'd be one thing if this was a list of international players or an article about the history of International Players in the NBA, but it's an essay essentially mostly about the San Antonio Spurs. SmashvilleBONK! 19:57, 3 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. One could indeed imagine an article about the history of non-US basketball players in the NBA, but this ain't it, and it ain't about to become it.  --jbmurray (talk • contribs) 20:04, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete, it's just an essay, it's not an article. Redrocket (talk) 22:53, 3 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom and jbmurray. To recreate this as a proper article would require a complete rewrite, so may as well start from scratch and ditch the synthesis. B figura  (talk) 23:12, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. The title promises a lot more than the article delivers, and a delete by consensus decision is far less insulting than for one person to completely rewrite the article.  Mandsford (talk) 00:01, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
