Brooklyn would be

5 and Knicks

We have no reason to dislike Raptors or Warriors

Is the Brooklyn hate for us mainly over the Paul Pierce/KG trade ? :D

No , it’s rather for Celtics fans being Nasty long after the trade , we knew we lost the trade right after Deron fall of the cliff , it was Billy King screw up , Celtics had nothing to do with it other than their fans constantly being nasty

We holding PHX , Philly picks , I don’t see Nets fans going to their board showboating about it when they loose games , you guys did it every single time , and I’m not saying you or any particular poster , just as a whole

I think there are three reasons to dislike a player:
1. Style of play
2. Personality
3. Annoying Fans (as can be seen in this thread :lol: )

My list would be
1. LeBron for reasons 2,3,1
2. Embiid 2,1
3. Steph 2
4. Trae 2
5. Luka 1,3,2

It's weird but I see him as a tragicomic figure in the Shakespearean mold. He's never going to succeed, even his MVP is tainted, and it seems a waste of time to dislike him when I can just enjoy his clumsy fall from grace. Same with other guys of this ilk. No need to root against a guy who is going to be hoist with his own petard. Just sit back and chuckle and applaud approvingly.

Jordan was disliked as well, but we'll respected, and must see TV. That's not the case with Lebron.

Jeremy Lin 7 wrote:1. Embidd (Crybaby and foul baiter)
2. Draymond Green (Donkey)
3. Lebron (the decision changed the NBA forever, some are too young to remember the NBA before every star whined for a trade demand)
4. Luka (Whines about every call, talks too much trash and doesn't play a lick of defense. If he had joker's idgaf about basketball he would be loved)
5. Kyrie Irving (flat earther who pretends to be a world-class citizen. never acknowledges he was the problem at BOS and Brooklyn)


Great list and reasoning behind it.

Luka is young enough I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. The rest is spot on.

I feel Jordan didn't even really have "stans" since it was universally recognised he was the best, so there wasn't much need to prop him up and defend him. And yes the internet did exist back in those days and there was one well known Jordan hater but people just ignored him like the crazed dude on fetanyl on the street.

Kobe was the first NBA player to really have stans because of how polarising he was.

DLo


This list is mad random lmao why Mathurin and McCollum LOL


Mathurin talks too much, and seems like he has a massive ego. Talking ****, complaining to the refs, arguing with teammates. Non stop yapping. Dont get me wrong, he's very talented though and a very good scorer.

This mathurin guy sounds a lot like Draymond. Not a compliment. These are players currently that I hate/can't stand.
1. LeBron-used to like him until he sold out to the lakers & completely dismissed the clippers. I shoulda realized something was up when last decade, I thought about attending the clippers/cavs saturday night game at staples BUT....he chose to sit out that game they coulda won with him, but instead chose to play against the lakers who they coulda beaten without him. Those same fans who mostly couldn't stand him. Some of those fans would be bandwagon spurs fans too when they faced the heat in the finals with lebron on them, cause of Kobe. I can't think of 1 spurs fan who would ever root for the lakers if they went against the heat. He coulda won lots of titles with the clippers, but would have to take a paycut.
2. Anthony Day to Davis. Also forced a trade to lakers, tired of players always getting their way with them.
3. Draymond-he was on the michigan state fartans. He loves to hear himself talk[like Jerry Jones, Trump, & Shaq], & he always bitch to the refs 99 out of 100 times every time the refs call an ovbious foul on him. He acts like he NEVER committed a foul in his life. He was worse than the 90's NY Knicks, & they got away with murder.
4. Durant-I bypassed him for joining texas. OKC fans were right, never trust people who join texas. He screwed the clippers in different ways. OKC in 2014. Joining the warriors which made it impossible for the clippers to get past them. They barely beat the warriors in the playoffs without Bogut. I wished he coulda took the wizards since he's from DC & only would have to worry about Cleveland in the east. I was ok with him joining Brooklyn & trying to win a championship with them but he gonna do what I can't stand in the nba. If you don't win a championship in 2 years, force a trade[Harden & others] & he forced a trade out Brooklyn & ended up on the suns-division opponent
5. Kanye Irving-Forced a trade out of cleveland, the way he did. I can understand a do unto others before they done unto you. Sadly, that happened with LeBron leaving cleveland again. The celtic fans should be happy he left them cause he SUCKED with the celtics. He acted a complete fool with Brooklyn which made me completely hate him. Him being on dallas & beating part of the reason the mavs beating the clippers in the 1st round. And he talked about wanting to rejoin the player he forced a trade to get away from. Lebron & the lakers. I did not want that fool in this state. Even the clippers. Thankfully that didn't happen.

And honorable mentions, more like don't like/can't stand
Klay Thompson-warriors tenure
James Harden-likes to force a trade if he don't win a championship in 2 years. Forcing his way outta houston, brooklyn, philly. Philly I understood cause he was lied to when it came to a contract situation. Didn't want him with the clippers either.
Kawhi-always injury prone. Plus he was a spur. Only past spurs I respected were Duncan & Ginobli.
Lance Stephenson when he was on the clippers. Hated him before he got into the league. I'm not like those fake fans who will be ok with a hated person acting like they loved them all their life when they joined their team. Like most fake L.A. fans. If the player can earn my respect, like Patrick Beverly, then things might be alright.

In no particular order ...

Current:

Chris Paul -> dirty player, I do not like him/seeing him win.
Rudy Gobert -> DPOY winners don't get repeatedly hunted on defense in the playoffs, outside of Gobert.
James Harden -> Foul merchant, the first
Joel Embid -> Foul merchant, the second
That fifth spot can easily go to Podcast P for being himself or Durant for joining GSW.

All Time:

Chuck Hayes (when In TOR)
Kobe Bryant -> he is not top 5 of all time for me (also, that 81 point game will forever annoy me)
Marcus Smart -> King of all floppers
Chris Childs

Coaches:

Butch Carter
Doc Rivers

Refs: ....... Tony Brothers.

I wouldn’t even say dislike because he seems like a good guy, but I find myself rooting against Wemby. Just shouldn’t be possible to have his physical traits, move that well, and have his skill and shooting ability. There’s a real possibility that having him on your team is just unfair to a degree we’ve never seen and I don’t want to see that. Maybe I’d feel differently if he didn’t end up on a team with 5 recent titles

1. Ben Simmons hands down #1 for me biggest diva in nba history mental midget who sabotaged the sixers while still collecting his check

2. Al Horford very very dirty player making the all star team 5 times as a glorified role player

3. James Harden selfish player mental midget in playoffs

4. Devin Booker very punchable face

5. Andre Igoudala see #4 set back the sixers for years
