Kobe, leads the NBA in one career statistical category; missed shots.
James Harden, is effective because of an ability to contort his body and embellish contact. The worst style of superstar basketball I've ever witnessed.
Steve Francis and Stephon Marbury; me first ball chuckers that made their teams worse.
Greg Oden. Yes the injuries are unfortunate but he handled them with no class, was out of shape, became a drunk, and bad mouthed a city full of many that supported him. Thats enough but he's also a domestic abuser.
JR Smith, Dion Waiters, Swaggy P, Enes Kanter are the types of players I can't stand to watch. They embody everything wrong about the NBA the last few years. They are basically the anti-Spurs anti-Hawks type of players. Selfish ball stoppers. Carmelo often looks this role but on team USA he was great so I do wonder about having him with good teammates. But he forced his way to NY and agreed to resign there so he's as much to blame as anyone for the Knicks problems.
Westbrook is a hell of a physical specimen that I enjoy watching from purely that angle but he would drive me nuts if he was on my team. I still wonder with a new coach who was a PG how he will do. I could see him making changes and becoming one of my favorite players. I've never seen a player play with that effort and athleticism. I would've loved to see him be drafted by the Spurs or another contender and learned some team first concepts early on. I'm hoping its not too late in his career for him to change.
Adam Morrision, Kelly Olynyk, Yi Jian Lian and Andre Bargnani are others I dislike.
David West ring chasing. It feels like cheating to me; similar to Malone and Payton joining the Lakers. The Wade/LeBron/Bosh trio taking less than the max to bring in others was like that as well. Its basically circumventing the salary cap. Be a real player and elevate a team to a contender while getting paid, then it actually means something if you win.
For Blazers its Damon Stoudamire, my least favorite of all time. He would overdribble every possession so the team was rushed into poor shots. Was an average 3 point shooter and that was his best skill. Terrible on defense, and a negative selfish attitude. I primarily blame him for those teams not winning titles. I'd rather have the rapist Ruben, fat Felton, angry Rasheed, spitting Bonzi, dogfighting Qyntel, lazy Darius, coke can pot smoking Rider, bar fighting Gary, or hoops family Randolph. Not to say Damon is a worse person then all of them; he's not. But in terms of play on the court that I have to watch as a fan he was the worst. Plus it was for so many damn years on that huge contract.
