Celtics Dominate Something!

    ...UNFORTUNATELY, IT'S THE 'MOST HATED PLAYERS' LIST AND THEY STILL WOULDN'T HAVE WON WITHOUT KG

    Bustabucket has come out with the top 10 most hated NBA players. It's a fine list with good graphics, but as it is intended to do- I must voice my displeasure.

    First of all, Paul Pierce is ranked #9, KG is #7, and Stephon is #3. Kendrick Perkins also was an honorable mention somehow. Stephon I understand because every indication is that he's a horrible person. However, KG and PP are on this list because they won a title and chirped about it. I would like a breakdown of how the "hate" is gauged. I doubt it takes into account the love these players receive to offset the hate. For every person that hates KG and Pierce there is some rando that doesn't watch the NBA that loves them. The list also had some glaring omissions. Here is my top 10 of players that didn't make the list:

    10) The Machine - this video captures it all

    9) T-Mac - fans of his former teams loathe him, fans of the NBA loathe him, Rockets fans now loathe him. Basically, if you know who T-Mac is, you're hating on him. That should warrant a spot on the list.
    8) Vince Carter - the guy who turned "tanking to screw your team over and get traded" into an art form. But, it's not really "art"- it's like the guy that did the Jesus painting with elephant poop. It isn't an art that requires talent, it's an art that simply requires you to be an ass.
    7) Anderson Varejao - never has a nation rejoiced over someone getting farted on that when this video came out

    6) Carmelo Anthony - this guy should get an honorable mention for being one of the most beloved college players that I can remember and then transforming into a guy that throws Olympic medals into a lake and brags about it on a "stop snitching" video. Then, he gets popped for a DUI. Then, he gets suspended by his own team for being an ass to his teammates.
    5) Stephen Jackson - after all, he did beat the crap out of a random dude in the stands while consumed with blind rage. He also just got suspended for piling up technical fouls. However, this video did wonders to make him more cuddly.

    4)Ron Artest - although I think most of us are too scared of him to say that we hate him. Thus, he gets a pass.
    3) Rasheed Wallace - coach killer, team killer, half-asser, ref abuser. Jemele Hill once said that "there are two sides to Rasheed." Readers out there, if anyone ever says "There are two sides to (insert name here)," (insert name here) is a douche. No exceptions. He also throws towels at people like a sissy.


    2) Jermaine O'Neal - Basketbawful calls him "Jermaine the Drain" and that could not be more accurate. He's a whiny, bitchy, team-killing jerkoff. Plus, he has the ability to make every game he is in 25% more boring to watch with his plodding around the post and taking ten minutes to shoot a free throw.
    1) Kwame Brown - didn't realize that he was still in the league? Can't think of anyone that still hates him? Well, Michael Jordan hates him with the fury of 10,000 suns. And since MJ is the second-best player ever, his votes count for 50 blogger votes. Had Larry Bird participated, Dr. J and Kurt Rambis would be 1-2.Source URL: http://ledger-heath.blogspot.com/2009/03/celtics-dominate-something.html
