Which nba players are psychopath/sociopath?

For you people not interested in reading the whole thing.
Equally shocking is a list of celebrity psychopaths: Leona Helmsley, "the queen of mean", Bernard Ebbers, the founder of Worldcom, Andrew Fastow, Enron's convicted CFO, and a host of other leaders of crooked corporations (Jeff Skilling and Kenneth Lay in the case of Enron?). (Kenneth Lay’s $92-million Seattle-area home was recently displayed on the Home-and-Garden channel.) Other psychopathic leaders might have included Genghis Khan, Adolph Hitler, Hermann Goering, Josef Stalin, Attila the Hun, Nero, and Caligula. Dr. Hare cites Steve Jobs, Larry Ellison, and Bill Gates as narcissists (borderline psychopaths) who are kept under control by their "handlers". They're very insensitive to other people's feelings. They differ from the true psychopath in that they identify with a cause (a projection of themselves), and may justify aggressive means to attain their self-justified ends. By contrast, the true psychopath is a parasite, concerned only about him/herself (like Hitler saying, “After me, comes the flood.”)
Characteristics of Psychopaths:
Glib and articulate. Jekyll and Hyde.
Impulsive to the point of recklessness.
Lying, deceiving and manipulating.
High need for excitement Lives on the edge.
Grandiose. Unafraid of punishment.
Violently reactive to slights, frustrations
No conscience. Never feels guilty.
Lack of responsibility. Parasitic lifestyle.
Totally self-centered. No empathy.
Episodic relationships
Shallow emotions.
Early and adult behavioral problems
Psychopaths will come up with sad stories about their sad childhoods that are sometimes true and are sometimes cut from the whole cloth.
but i recommend you read the whole thing. There is even a test to recognize a psychopath.
so... i know this is no a psychoplogy forum, but its quite interesting... can the perfect mindset for a NBA player is being psychopath? trying to be charm with rivals, just to destroy them on court? which NBA Players are phsychopath?
Im something like 99% sure Jordan was a psychopath... how he would pretend to be friends with Patrick and Charles just to later destroy them on court? I remember Jordan saying something like "I hate that fat ass(Barkley), I just pretend to be his friend" or something like that, people seemed to take it like a joke, but he seemed to truly mean it at that time.
edit: it seems that nowadays, MOST succesful people are psychopath.... Steve Jobs is known for being a ruthless psychopath... Heck even Martha Stewart has been called out for being a workplace bully...
