That's a good question.

I like Tim Duncan a lot, but he's not exciting or flashy enough for some, and considered "soft" to others.

I've always liked Duncan too, he's gotta be considered one of the best big men in the history of the game.

I tell you what, Duncan get's honorable mention, only to King James, when it come to whining about fouls and calls. Watch him during the next series. Every other call he's going to think he was fouled.

LOL that didn't take long before someone cut down Duncan.

So again, is there a guy out there in the NBA that most people like?

How about Nash?

Steve Nash get's my "most likable" vote. He keeps his mouth shut, he's not a crybaby, he's an intense competitor..and he's a great, great ball player.

I can't believe I'm going to say this as a Laker's fan, but go Spurs. I think Lebron is an amazing player for someone of his age and lack of development ie college, but I can't root for his team thanks to the consistent barage of the media slurping this guy. Now they are already calling him the next great legendary player?! I don't doubt he might be in another 10 years or so, but right now? he hasn't even won anything yet. I know for a fact if he keeps up his pace statistically he will finish his career as a top 10-15 player of all time if not higher, but for heavens sake he's only been in the league for 4 years so let's give him a chance to show he has longevity. It's the same with players like Crosby in hockey, a wide assortment of nfl players including Vince Young and Brady Quinn, a handful of mlb players, and upcoming nba players Durant and Oden. I just hate the mentality of today's media of crowning players before they've proven anything and forcing the idea of the next great player upon us and setting a lot of them up for nothing but being deemed a failure unless certain criteria are meet within a very short time frame.

See for some reason LeBron choked once again. Although he had the ball in his hands, he did not take over the game like he is capable of. Honestly it looks like he doesnt want the ball in the 4th.
