Who are your top seven most hated players in the NBA history?

[KingSpeed]

KingSpeed is gay!!!!??????

and in love with you!

 

[ABM]

and in love with you!

I'm jealous, Eric. You know that I am.

Hmmmm....OTOH, when HCP is with you....where's his wife?

 

[GriLtCheeZ]

Hate is such a strong, strong word. Personally, I don't think he (Timmy H.) meant it that way.

"You know, I hate gay people, so I let it be known," Hardaway said. "I don't like gay people and I don't like to be around gay people. I am homophobic. I don't like it. It shouldn't be in the world or in the United States."

I want to amend mine. One of you mentioned him already, but the guy (while a good humanitarian) ruined Kevin Duckworth in 91.

Of course, Duck was a bit overrated...but anyways Floppy Divacs.

Had he not batted that rebound out to Robert Horry, and the Kings ended up winning that series, I'd probably feel different

Umm yeah he meant it that way. HE used the word "hate." Read what he said.

Yeah man, it was pretty blatant. It was one of the funniest interviews I've ever heard, and I don't mean that offensively to anyone but Tim Hardaway's dumbass. Even your average bigot knows enough to keep his mouth shut on a recorded interview. Tim's dumbass just kept rattling on, even after the interviewer tried to give him an out.

I'm honestly surprised that road teams didn't give Tim Hardaway, Jr. shit over that last year. NCAA crowds can be intense as all hell. They'll throw twinkies at overweight players and raise graphic signs about players' underage sisters (ie: Redick's sister). You'd think that by this point, at least one home crowd would have thought about the comments that Jr.'s dad made...

Amaechi? Sorry, he may not have been nice at a party but he was still the first to come out besides being a Renaissance person, not usual in NBA. So I like him. And I like Steve Nash until he became a Laker and on my shit list on principle.

Not sure about 7, but I can name Kobe Bryant, Ruben Patterson, Karl Malone, Rick Fox, Bill Laimbeer. Bonzi Wellls is in a different category as I never actually knew those other 5 dudes but I did know Bonzi, so it's personal. For no. 7, well, no one has mentioned Isiah Thomas. Yes, good player, good personal story, but he screwed up everything he touched in his post playing career. And there is Sasah Djeorgevic (sp?). Remember him? Not very memorable as a player, but I remember him flashing the Serbian nationalist hand sign when Serbian nationalists were operating rape camps and committing mass murder in Croatia and Boznia.

Probably someone I'm forgetting, but if I forget him, I guess he doesn't belong on the list!

OMG Robert Horry..... he definitely makes the list.

 

[BrianFromWA]

I can only go back to about 1985 or so...

1. Garnett.
2. Rick Fox.
3. Isiah/Laimbeer
4. Eduardo Najera.
5. Ricky Davis.
6. Derek Fisher.
7. Don't ask me why, but Kurt Rambis.

 

[mook]

Surprised so much hate for Garnett. Dude worked his ass off to try to make that Timberwolves team succeed. He's the epitome of "intense." I'll be pretty sad to see him retire. One of the real personalities (and talents) in the game.

 

[BrianFromWA]

I think the guy is a royal bullying asshole, and I'd call him other names but I don't want to offend the other expletives. Yes, he has talent. No, I don't like his personality, attitude, his sportsmanship or his regard for competitors. Maybe that's just me.

crandc- I'm well aware that he came out. That's why I went up to him. I wanted to thank him and introduce myself. He was a total dick and not interested in talking to me at all. Just because he did something good by coming out doesn't make him a good, nice, or likable person. If you were with me that night, you wouldn't have liked him either.

1. Derek Fisher
2. Bill Laimbeer
3. Damon Stoudamire
4. Kevin Garnett
5. Rick Fox
6. Kobe Bryant
7. Shaq (used to actually be my favorite player pre-L*kers)

Honorable Mention: Anyone on The OKC Thunder. Dwight Howard.

How the hell did I leave off Damon Stoudamire? Ok, I'll remove Claver from my list.

In fact, I'll also remove Smith, Jeffries and Freeland so I can list Damon 4 times.

But Babbitt you stay on there you fucker.
