He allegedly banged K-Mart's wife. So I'm not sure about his "sportmanship".

Brother Mouzone: You're the perfect bait. They will view you as conflicted, you're homophobia is so visceral.

Lamar: See that. I haven't even walked in the place yet and you're already calling me a c0cksucker.

Defintely Korver, thought this when he played for the 6ers and when he came to Utah it just backed up my opinion. He constantly volunteers in Africa and other 3rd world country. If 50% of Americans were like him America would be a 100x better place.

A lot of other ones like him also.

Roy Hibbert has a phenomonal attitude. A long-time fan of his posted some amazing stories on him on another Pacer's forum, about how he was literally laughed at early in his basketball career and continued to work in stride. Just a fantastic work ethic and this month's winner of the Bucky O'Hare Seal of Approval.

Elton Brand can be taken off the list, he stabbed B Diddy and LA.

Battier is the best guy in the NBA. Grant Hill and Steve Nash can be on that list, plus Dirk.

Greg Oden

Dick Vitale wrote:He [Oden] has the great attitude and mental framework that's vital to getting better and better.


Blazers' trainer Jay Jensen wrote:I haven't seen Greg play basketball yet, but as far as work ethic, he is right up there with Scottie Pippen, Detlef Schrempf and Damon Stoudamire as the best I've seen. He's a hard worker, very determined.''


Greg Thomas, President of Visual Concepts, a 2K Sports studio wrote:His amazing talent combined with dedication, work ethic and winning attitude will continue to make him a great basketball success. These admirable qualities easily made him the natural choice to represent College Hoops 2K8.


Kevin Pritchard wrote:"We talked about it internally, Nate and I, but the one thing we do know is that we picked the right player. Greg is a wonderful human being. He is going to be a great basketball player.


Kevin Pritchard wrote:"We picked the right kid; he cares about his organization. And I can't [overemphasize] how bad he felt, and not because he had to go through the rehab and all that, but because he felt like he let us down,"


Gotta love Oden.

Gilbert Arenas has a good attitude. He sticks up for his teammates and his teammates like him alot.
Pay no mind to the battles you've won
It'll take a lot more than rage and muscle
Open your heart and hands, my son
Or you'll never make it over the river

Anyone in my top 5. Varejao, Livingston, Martin, Turkoglu, Elton Brand. I know that most of you are going to disagree with me about Varejao, but he's just a hard worker that's willing to do anything to help his team win.
