    Well it's been said the nicest guy is Boban Marjanović. There are a lot of people who say Steph Curry is a genuinely good person. Interesting Kevin Durant has been brought up as a "Jerk" because he has made a couple lists of as one of the nicest guys.
    We don't like him much here but Chris Paul is supposed to be a decent guy and Mike Conley.
    Of course a bunch say Damian Lillard is a very good person.

    Just thought i would change the thread to good guys rather than the idiots. Why give them the time of day?

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I think Durant is an insecure guy, someone who wants to please so badly that it's awkward. I'd save terms like "jerk" for people who are malicious towards others.

    If we go only by how much of a jerk I could have been an NBA all-star!

    Durant is a whiny ass bitch who gets into twitter fights with teenagers.

    disagree, maybe Embiid or Doc for throwing him under the bus.

    I'd like to throw Chris Paul's name into the mix.

    Durants a douche. He got in an altercation recently with Olynyk. He’s too much of a mental midget to realize that’s what olynyk wanted.

    The guy who got baited into an altercation is a douche, rather than the guy who did the baiting? Interesting take...

    Hear really bad things about Dillon Brooks. Russ is really kind off camera/court. KD is acting like a dick but in reality isn't, which might be even worse.

    Nothing too interesting about it. It’s pro sports. If someone is clearly better than you, you try and find a psychological edge. If they’re clearly triggered than great.

    There’s a guy who went to Notre Dane who played for the Pistons, grew up in a rich family, yet made an amazing impact on championship Detroit teams in the 80’s doing that exact thing.

    In fact he burned our Blazers in the playoffs a couple times with his schtick

    Short answer, yes. The player who takes the bait is a dumbass. You know how many times Lillard could have taken the bait on Beverly’s schtick?

    I hear Draymond Green’s a dick. But who cares he has multiple rings on his fingers
