Is there a bigger douchebag in the NBA today? Seriously. There are guys in the league that I absolutely abhor - Amare, Dirk, and Josh Howard quickly come to mind. But is there anyone out there that more eptimozes the term "douchebag" than this guy? It's especially amusing at the end of close games watching him "pick up the intensity" and try to play pressure defense.
He reminds me of Ginobili in that he's one of those irritating hustle players, he'll do the small things that get under everyone's skin.
Getting under ppls skins Rafer > Sasha Sasha > Ginobili so.. Rafer > Ginobili? We shall see who gets under others skin
Rafer is definitely not > Sasha when it comes to getting under people's skin. Not even close. Don't let that one incident fool you.
For all his irritating ways, Vujacic is one Laker I'm giving a bit of cred to for being INTO the game. Even if its too much display of emotion, he's standing up on the bench instead of sitting down, one of the first to help teammates off the floor and at least put in a decent effort on defense.
Rafer threw that And 1 move at Sasha and got in his face because Sasha was still playing pressure D in a blowout game, that's proof that Sasha gets under other's skin. And I don't think Sasha does these stuff to irritate, it's just that it's the only way he knows how to play, otherwise he'd be just another soft perimeter European player. Another player he reminds me of, Danny Ainge. I hated Danny Ainge, I wanted Elie to beat the crap out of him when he threw that ball at Elie's face.
I actually like his game. You can never say he isn't giving his all when he plays, his jumper is well above average, and he continually takes the challenge in guarding the other teams perimeter threats. He has a decent handle, and you would have to make some damn good points to convince me that he wouldn't be an upgrade over Luther. To go even a step further, I wouldn't be surprised at all if we made a play for him this offseason.
next the verse and Crisco Kidd (with a wink to r-man SmeggySmeg who doesn't post anymore, and SamFisher who's babies I want to have), I can't avoid bball post by thacabbage...a lot as to do with he is my favorite Mavs hater...witness two of three of his douchebag candidates. Usually I always agree with thacabbage... this is no exception. <font size=1>how's that for an "i agree" post</font>
If his hair wasn't so stupid he wouldn't be so hated. It's like people from Europe/S.America that play in the NBA are obliged to have r****ded hairstyles.
he kind of plays like Luther Head...can hit the 3s, but sometimes takes the stupidest shots and makes horrible decisions also, you can't like a guy that is nicknamed "The Machine"

I sorta disagree Luther Head is what I call a classic underachiever, while Sasha is a classic overachiever. They may make the same mistakes, but with Sasha you can sometimes live with it cause he'll make it up with the hustle plays, while with Head if he makes a mistake he lets it affect the rest of his game and for the rest of the game he's worthless.
That's not saying much considering Luther Head is complete trash and makes Shandon Anderson's offensive repertoire look like Tracy McGrady. Sasha Vujacic reminds me of that uncoordinated douche at the gym who has no other redeeming qualities so he has to resort to playing every defensive possession as if it's the last possession of Game 7 of the NBA Finals.
