LeBrand for sure. He indirectly ruined the league in 2010 with the unprecedented levels of collusion and anti-competitive practices he initiated that only in the last two years the NBA has recovered from, including a new CBA to make impossible what he did

Mine is pretty random, and it's Klay Thompson. I don't hate the guy at all, but his vibe and mannerisms irk me. It all started when he was informed by the media that he didn't make all NBA a few years back. The way he reacted when he was told Kemba Walker made it over him really turned me off.

Out of these, its easily Draymond. He just had his classic response :

"I don't live my life with regrets," Green said after practice, the first time he has spoken to reporters since his suspension. "I'll come to a teammate's defense any time that I'm in a position to come to a teammate's defense. ... What matters to me is how the people that I care about feel, first and foremost. How are the people that I care about affected? How are the people I care about, what do they have to deal with? That's it for me."


How about apologizing to your own team, who had to play without you, cause of your classic antics once again? Or you dont care about them either? In the past, he also stated that he doesnt regret game 5 suspension and almost wanted to fight Ryen Russillo for suggesting that he should regret it. What a freaking irresponsible clown.

Then he implies that NBA actually punishes him harsher, because of his past...
"To continue mentioning, 'Oh, well, he did this in the past,' I paid for those," Green said. "I got suspended in Game 5 of the NBA Finals. You can't keep suspending me for those actions."

First of all, no, you dumbo, you get away with more than any other player in the league. Second, stop being actual idiot and don't choke a guy.

Gobert wasnt even doing anything. How after seeing what happened and having all the evidence, he can still believe that he can sell us all ''defending teammate'' excuse? Defend him from what, your stinch on the court?

I vote for Cockpuncher, other guys are worse individuals but without the Allstate 'good guy' fake image.

I don't "hate" any players, but I'm definitely not a fan of Draymond Green for reasons already stated.

(honorable mention to Trae Young)

It should be mentioned that it's just a mostly-in-jest "sports hate", not actual hate, that would be unhealthy.

As a newer fan to the sport, this is the first time I've ever heard of someone not liking Kyle Lowry. Is it his playstyle or personality?

Kevin Durant. Hardly any playoff success outside of the most stacked team in NBA history. And yet everyone wants to tell me he’s so **** good? Get real.

Not to mention that he is a soft ass individual.

Draymond (obvious reason. clear #1 1)
Lebron (most dramatic, fake social-justice warrior, and whines all the time)
Embiid (never seen a 7 footer flop and disrespect the game like him)

surprised no one mentioned Luka (whiniest b*&67 in the league)

I pitty Kyrie, he needs help

Hate is a strong word. I really don't hate any player, I don't even know em.

I disliked Dennis Rodman back then, so I guess Draymond Green has to be included. Maybe James Harden?

I'm gonna vote other just to see the results of the poll.

Like everyone is saying, I don't actively hate any player. But, Draymond is annoying AF and gets away with way more than he should be allowed to. He should be ejected every other game for his antics. I hate watching Harden play, it's just terrible basketball. And Booker's a whiny B (though I admit he's really, really good).

Most of the other guys on OP's list are head-scratchers. There are a lot more hateable players in the league, they just aren't bigger names.

I don’t believe anyone legitimately dislikes Kevin Durant.

They just don’t respect him because of his decisions.

This poll kinda proves that.
