Kirilenko[edit]

Resolved

Someone who knows how make Kirilenko's background "green". He's an active player in the NBA. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.196.238.94 (talk) 14:36, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Who votes?[edit]

According to article coaches are voting to select two teams. But in official NBA voting (link) from this year there are only media members. Can you please fix it? Please provide references. I'm pl wiki editor and I'm working right now on this article in my Project. Can you tell me please, when did that change (coaches -> media members) take place? Sorry for my bad English ;-) Tufor (talk) 21:46, 20 June 2014 (UTC) if you respond, please, {{ping}} me[reply]

Most Selections[edit]

I think we should change the list to players with at least 5 total all-defensive team selections similar to the most selections in the all-nba team featuring players with at least 10 total selections, so far, I just rearranged the list to show the total selections first instead of first-team selections, and I would like some input before making this big change. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 16:06, 6 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I changed it to top 10 to make it more manageable. People keep finding missing players, understandably because this is a manually compiled list because there is no master reference that sorts by most selections. Making it a small, round number like top-10 should make this more reliable.—Bagumba (talk) 08:56, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Duncan and Bell are not considered international players by the NBA[edit]

The citation given is of a Chinese outlet, which does not say that the NBA has a position on this. All other sources tend to confirm that Duncan is not considered an international player. Suggest removing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.32.120.199 (talk) 05:33, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There's a lot of sources at List of foreign NBA players about being born outside of the 50 states. I went and copied one over from there.—Bagumba (talk) 09:17, 27 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
