Hey, he has every right to be nominated with those qualifications, will he win? Thats another question.

I changed my African player of the year from Deng to mt.Mutombo
A 40-year-old playing at such a high level like he's playing and having an important role in a team... There just aren't many. Good on defense (as usual), above 10 rebounds in his last five games and always at least one block. And what's more interesting is that he can still play more than 20 minutes a game. Just unbelievable.
 
I nominated Leandro Barbosa for the "International player of the year" award, but forgot to recite his name in "Americas player of the year" part. Could you please add him, Stuart? ;).

I heard he was phenomenal in Brazil's championship at Americas Cup, and we all witness how great he's been playing for the Suns in NBA.
