Kenyon Martin is more of a fake than actual temper.

LOL@Rasheed having a temper.
He's immature and outspoken, yes, but virtually everytime he complains about a call it truly was a bad one.

What about Tim Duncan? The guy freaks out and goes bug eyed every time he's gets called for a foul. It may not be a viloent "temper" per se, but its defintiely bad behavior. Its a miracle he doesn't get tossed more.

Also, Stephen Jackson has to be on this list. His outbursts in close games cost the Warriors dearly in the series versus the Jazz last year.

Tim Duncan really does look like a ghost when he gets a call on him he doesnt like. 8-O

You'd get upset about blatantly erroneous calls, too.
I don't consider it a temper when it's an understandable reaction. Not justifiable, necessarily, but anybody with access to a replay can see that Rasheed's infuriation stems from something external. A referee calling a blocking foul on a swat that was all ball, for example. Or not calling an off-arm on an obvious hook.
Should Sheed not be as demonstrative as he is? Are some of these bad calls a result of his reputation? Do the Pistons in general mouth off more than they should? The answer to all of these questions is y-e-s. However, I wouldn't say he's got a *bad temper*.

It has nothing to do with calls. Justified or not, its a temper. Kobe, rasheed or anybody. Temper is a temper.
