    ... in no particular order.

    100. Kobe Bryant - temporarily nicknamed the Lakers to the Rapers

    99. Jason Kidd - wife beater

    98. Delonte West - shotgun enthusiast

    97. Allen Iverson - misses practice(s)

    and the Ruler slapped that clown all the way to Chicago.

    Actually, Allen Iverson became such a distraction with the Sixers his first time around that they sent him home while they worked out a trade. Also, the Pistons sent him packing with a fake injury during the end of his brief tenure there as well.

    Kobe Bryant and Jason Kidd have accomplished a lot more than T-Mac, and Delonte West never quit on the team. So... you fail.

    None of these players inserted himself in and out of lineups, threw his teammates under a bus, declared himself out for the season to the media to block a trade, and demand playing time despite lack of performance.

    KB24 also in spite of his legal drama still continued to play the best basketball of his career at the time.

    JKidd (when he was a Sun) beating his wife in recent reports has actually shown to be the other way around AND as soon as the news of his domestic woes hit the media JKidd was on a first class ticket to New Jersey.

    AI was traded Denver, then Detroit because of his horrible attitude. Philly only brought him back because they wanted to sell tickets SEE Steve Francis. In recent reports Philly actually mulled the idea of NOT picking up AI's contract for the rest of the season...

    What about Dream? Or Barkley? Both players got frustrated at some point in time in their careers and asked for trades (luckily the first time dream did ask for one we didn't grant him the honor) and their teams decided to keep them and make it work.

    Before you write that, you should first ask yourself if a tmac only fan knows anything about the nba, especially nba history.

    There is a time when a tmac fan knows about nba history,
    that time is never.

    AI thought showing up to practice was overrated.
    Tracy McGrady thought showing up to games was overrated.

    I have it from my Chinese contacts that Rick was just a mouth piece, the hate & lies came from the Mangement backed up by the ownership, no need to blame Adelman anymore. :p
