    This thread made me start thinking about this. Who is the most well-liked NBA player around the league? I probably missed some guys who should definitely be on here, vote 'other' and write them in if so.

    Purposely didn't include any Rockets.

    no way Scola's anywhere near

    He's a flopper first and foremost, AANND he gets under sooo many players' skin with his style of play. I read other team's forums and they dread Scola

    Dwayne Wade will never be the most liked anything. The guy is the Kanye West of basketball, arrogant as hell.

    Looked at the title and figured it would be Jeremy Lin too. I'd also throw in Blake Griffin and Kevin Love.

    But from the list I'd say Derrick Rose.

    Kevin Durant. Seems like a quality guy and not a crybaby. He loves OKC, which is a smaller markets than say Miami and Chicago and yet he gets it done and rivals those teams. Gotta respect a guy like that.

    We as fans might hate Fisher for good but I think he is widely respected among his peers .....

    Personally like Battier, classy guys.... Ex-rocket squad
    The glue guys are most likeable.

    Grant Hills, Chuck Hayes', Landrys... You can add

    Next on the list... fun guys to hang out with.....

    Steve Nash has a case here.

    Wade is loved by all the women.

    Rubio has his lovers and haters, probably more lovers than haters. He almost made the all-star this year.

    I don't think many casual fans care about Durant or Battier.

    Duncan has a lot of haters because of his boring play.

    I pick Nash.

    No luv for Antoine Walker?

    The guy was known amongst the casual fan as a chucker, but to the more hardcore contingent, he had it all. The looks, the dashing character, the mocha skin, the height, the the dance moves... truly a bonafide star capable of being loved. Not too many non ghetto girls love Wade. But girls of all races and shapes luvd Antoine Walker, and he had the Teddy Pendergrass mojo to set the wheels in motion.

    All nite, err nite.

    IN male modeling circles he's known as the ideal body/face combination.
