Also, it'd give me a head's up before I get brickbats when I create a trade that sends out someone you guys all love.

From the thread that hatched Shrink's idea:
[RCG] wrote:Favorite Wolves: 1. Rubio 2. Wes J 3. Barea
Least Favorite Wolf: Ridnour

*changed Wes to Williams


Mine:
Favorites:
1. Rubio- He was more than worth the wait and is an absolute joy to watch play.

2. Darko- My favorite of Kahn's reclamation projects. He has moments that are simply awesome: shoving Perkins, his streak of destruction last year, and of course his celebrations.

3. Webster- Straight from high school players sometimes seem like selfish knuckle heads (JR Smith, Ellis, Harrington, etc) but Webster puts the team first and gives it his all. He also seems like a perpetual underdog with his back issues.

Least Favorite: Ridnour - Plays like an idiot sometimes when he should be a vet leading by example.

1. Rubio
2. Webster
3. Pekovic

...

15. I like them all. It's too mean to say someone's my "least favorite". Can't get myself to do it. Though, i'd say, depending on the game, sometime's it's Barea, sometimes it's Tolliver, sometimes it's Wes, and sometimes it's Darko.

1. Rubio (Duh)
2. Williams (Duh)
3. Barea (He's like a pesky mosquito to the opponents)

Least: Pekovic (Not quick enough, long enough for the NBA. Too many dumb fouls and violations)

1. Darko (seriously, not even sure why)
2. DWill
3. Beasley

Least Favorite is Brad, but he may not count due to injury. So maybe Wayne? But he is making me a believer. All I ask of wayne is that he makes shots when open. As of late he has been.

Funny how Love only has one third place vote.

1. Love ... Works his ass off, on and off the court. He does so much, with so little physical ability. As someone who is also not blessed with anything but tenacity, I admire him.

2. Rubio ... Makes watching basketball fun. Back when I was one of the world's best fantasy hoops players, I admired players that would contribute in other categories. Even when their shot wasn't hitting, they were working hard to help their team however they could.

3. Derrick Williams ... I guess I just want to see him succeed so badly. Any other #2 pick would be showered with adoration, but Ricky sopped up all our goodwill.

Least? Strange .. I'm going to say "no one" too! I've been up and down the list, and there is no one on the team that I don't have positive feelings for! That's really unusual, I think. Every team has it's scapegoats, or the guys who's attitude waivers.

Mine:

1-Ellington (I like hardworking guys)
2-Barea (He is brave)
3-Ricky (great to watch him, but I get too anxious when he miss shots, would not be fair put him on the top)

Least: Darko (come on man, you are huge, you have talent, show some attitude more often).

Weird to see Barea and Milicic tied w/ Love.

1. Love - Similar reasons to Shrink. Incredible rebounder, works harder than most off the court.
2. Rubio - So fun to watch and I always love a good PG.
3. Williams - Liked him before the draft and he's shown some really nice flashes.

Least: Darko - Ridiculously inconsistent, mentally unstable lol.

I'm shocked Love has barely got any votes. Might have something to do with this thread starting after his worst game of the season.

If my top three can't be Adelman, Porter and Sikma, my selections are:

1. Rubio - Just too entertaining
2. Love - The face of the franchise
3. Wes - You gotta root for the underdog

Least- Heads Darko, Tails Beasley. TAILS
