Least Favorite Suns of All Time

Hey y'all, I lurk around here a TON, though I very rarely post. The above topic came up among me and some friends, and I was wondering what everybody thought about it; I'm sure the topic has been discussed, but finding such a thread would take a LOT of work soooo....

Who are everyone's least favorite Suns? They can be totally justified, unjustified, whatever.

Here's my list:

1. Shannon Brown (worst)
2. Hedo Turkoglu
3. Kendall Marshall
4. Aaron Brooks (he didn't do anything to justify this, but I hated losing Goran so much, I automatically hated Aaron.)
5. Matt Barnes
6. Marcus Banks
7. Marcin Gortat (Pretty ridiculous, considering now that he's NOT on our team, he seems like a pretty hilarious guy)
8. Matt Barnes (no idea why)
9. DJ Strawberry (I have literally no idea why.)
10. Fat Boris Diaw ( :lol: )

People that probably SHOULD be on the list, but aren't:
Beasley: idk why, I had a soft spot for him; if we were gonna suck (and that season was beyond miserable), I appreciated that we took the chance on him, and I unceasingly rooted for him to succeed. Him being unintentionally hilarious as a pot-head didn't hurt.

Childress: just loved the fro. Couldn't help myself. Wanted him to be so great.

Wesley Johnson: Ugh he was almost on the list. He just seemed like too nice of a guy for me to be allowed to hate him.

As you can tell, I'm a fairly young Suns fan, but obviously your answer can be from any era.

1. Micheal Beasley
2. Michael Beasley
3. Robert Horry
4. Sam Cassell
5. Stephon Marbury
6. Turkey Glue
7. Randy Livingston... thanks for destroying Googs career because you felt like flopping into his legs. Jerk.
8. Steve Albert, yeah, the announcer, I'm counting him.
9. Luis Scola. I dont know why... but I did not like him. Greasy, floppy, terrible defender.
10. Aaron Brooks. I was so mad about that trade. Brooks was dog crap and a cancer AND wanted an extension... we give up a superior, younger and cheaper player in Dragic AND we threw in a pick. Disgusting.

Turk, Beasley, Brown, Horry, MARIO FRIGGIN ELIE, Luc Longley...

MARCUS BANKS was like a virus we couldn't get rid of.

I mostly dislike a player who either has a lot of potential/promise but doesn't deliver, or they don't give 100% on the court, or they're just a bum. So there's likely MANY more who could end up on here but I'm at work so better not write too many.

Here's the list in case anyone needs a walk down memory lane.

I think the name 'Devin Durrant' is under-appreciated. We were so close to Kevin Durant.

I agree with most people on the list. I really didn't like Cassell.

One person not mentioned was Luc Longley who drove me nuts is Longley. I thought we wasted WAY too much money on him (could have had Divac for MUCH cheaper that summer). The way we blew all our money on him and Googs (after McDyess bolted) reminded me on splurging on Hedo and Childress after losing Amare. Big inefficient use of funds.

Longley was clumsy as hell too.

And no one mentioned Hot Rod!

Robert Horry - piece of ****
Antonio McDyess - backstabber
Penny Hardway - quitter
Amare - Never played defense and only cared about his max deals
Shannon Brown - selfish
Beasley - loser
Richard Dumas - So much talent wasted because of a drug problem

I was also never a fan of Wayman Tisdale, Tom Gugliotta, Luc Longley, etc. We paid these guys too much money. But at least they didn't seem to be the locker room cancers the guys above were.

I was big on Beasley when he joined the Sunsbut he **** it up so badly beyond repair. I still think Hedo was even ****, because he really didn't give a damn about the Suns.
