I think Rasheed by far has the best personality - just real, down to the earth, funny, blunt guy who doesn't care what anyone thinks - thats by far the best.I had Shaq in there as well for being such a clown - Also, Antonio Mcdyess is the nicest guy ever.
If coaches count, I really love Avery... he said something great a week or so ago.They asked him what he thought about changing back to the old ball. He said, "I don't care what ball they tell us to play with... slippery ball, sticky ball, volleyball..."It was freaking hilarious in his southern voice.
My favorite NBA personalities have to be (in no particular order) Shaq, Rasheed Wallace, AI, and Ron Artest... they should just put them all in the same house, lock the doors and see what the hell would happen.
Sheed and Shaq definitely. They're both hilarious. Sheed's Jingle Bells thing with Johnson, Maxiell, and Blalock was the funniest thing I've seen in a long time.

Funny guy, very passionate on the court, and he will tell you what he thinks whether you like it or not. Gotta respect that. Others I like are: Delonte West The dude is just straight up hilarious, a little crazy, and he's got a lot of heart. I love D-West! Damon Jones Again, the dude is just straight up hilarious. Shaq VERY funny, and he isn't afraid to say anything. Bill Walton Not a player anymore, obviously, but he's still involved in the NBA as an announcer/analyst. Half the time, Bill doesn't even try to be funny, he's just that nuts. I love listening to Bill Walton talk. He's probably the weirdest guy since THE START OF WESTERN CIVILIZATION!
^^I agree with Delonte too. I'm sure if he was a better player that he is, more people would know that.

<span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS">Hmm... I like Jason Kidd's personality because he can go and beat up his wife, but at the same time, be nice to his fans. Isn't that just great? I do enjoy hearing Marv Albert, Steve Kerr and Reggie Miller broadcast together, like they did for last nights Nets v.s Bulls game. I think the trio are hilarious because they are so white and Reggie was talking about how Vince Carter, when taking the ball to the rim, turns into an actor off of 'Boyz N the Hood' (the movie) and Steve said, "Really? I thought he'd be a 'Man N The Hood'." I couldn't stop laughing after that.The three guys also have good personalities. They can (seemingly) take a joke and can also say really bizarre things that I find hilarious coming from them, especially since two of them are white and the other one just seems white.</span>
I'm going to move this topic over to Basketball Misc....Rasheed Wallace, Shaq, and Damon Jones are the players that actually show their personalities to the media. Gotta go with those guys.

No one has mentioned Gilbert Arenas.. Sure, he comes off as a bit cocky sometimes, but he's an extremely nice player and the fans love him here in DC.

Charles Barkley and Damon Jones are my favorites. Everyone knows about Barkley, but just a taste of Damon Jones:<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>All you have to do is check out the video on cavs.com?s homepage to know that Damon Jones is the funniest player on the Cavaliers. Donyell Marshall said so in his Player Mailbox. Every Cavalier will say so. Jones broke his silence with the media yesterday and although many of us grumbled, we knew: you can?t stay mad at Damon Jones. Yesterday, he held an informal and impromptu press conference after practice, mostly to explain his stance. It was good to hear laughter again outside the Cavaliers practice court. ?I apologize to you guys (in the media),? quipped Jones. ?You weren?t able to get any of my clever quotes and my humorous statements.? ...?I was really missing you guys,? he said to the media yesterday. ?I don?t want you guys to get a big head, but this is what I like to do, I like to talk. So I?m glad to have these cameras and these mikes in my face again.? </div>Damon Jones is the self-proclaimed "Handsomest man and best shooter" in the world. He is just a funny guy. He comes up with these stupid things to do on the court too, like after he makes a three and what-not.
Ronny Turiaf because of his dancing. He started doing a spastic dance when he got to go to shoot free throws during a game earlier this season, and he always dances over at the bench.Rasheed WallaceGilbert ArenasShaq
