Who's the scariest player in the NBA

[Zodiac]

Basically what the titles says, which player would you least like to run into late at night in a backstreet alley?

Personally for me it'd be either Ivan Johnson or Artest

[andremiller07]

Ivan Johnson its not even close

[Budadiiii]

Delonte West, and it isn't particularly close.

lol I just imagined him stalking people while whispering hot sauce in my bag

[Budadiiii]

Honorable mention to the dude who stuck his finger up Chris Kaman's asshole. Forget the name though.

[Blue&Orange]

Jimmer Fredette.

[Rubio2Gasol]

Crazy dudes are scary because they're unpredictable. So dudes like West and Artest are scary.

Johnson is just intimidating.

Met Artest in LA. Chill ass dude. West just seems crazy, but not out of the blue, stab you in the chest crazy.

I'd say Kirk Hinrich. You know he carrying bricks with him.

Please son if you were walking down an alley and saw Ivan Johnson coming your way your ass is sprinting faster than a jackrabbit during hunting season

[Mr. Jabbar]

Garnett since I'd only see his eyes

[B-Low]

Artest before you spill a drink on him at a party

Ron Artest is like Tommy off of Goodfellas

[Rubio2Gasol]

:wtf: :coleman:

I said he was intimidating.

[9512]

If I was a blonde white chick, I'd say Kobe.

[9512]

Garnett since I'd only see his eyes

:roll: :roll:

[Zodiac]

I'd nominate Miguel Pietrus as well for suspected cartel connections

[BuffaloBill]

Ivan Johnson. What's scarier than a black guy named Ivan?

[Zodiac]

In terms of game? Kobe circa 2006 and 2007 he was a living legend, respected, at his peak, with a mentality to embarrass you and score as much as possible. His game relies on intimidation.

In terms of crazy-ness / physicality / fighting? Ben Wallace, for physicality ... Delonte West and Ron Artest (throwback crazy)

In terms of in the open court, or getting caught under the basket with this guy having a full head of steam? LeBron, Wade, and Westbrook.

LeBron is the best player in the game, but he's not necessarily a scary talent. He doesn't intimidate the way Bird, MJ, and Kobe did things. LeBron is an inspire type talent. A gatherer, like Magic. He gets others involved. He doesn't talk trash. He's not usually going to break your ankles (unless your Brandon Bass or Batum) and he's not going to give you sick post moves that humiliate like Hakeem, MJ, Kobe, McHale, or Bird. The only time he's ever been scary was game 6 v.s. Boston. He played with the mentality of an MJ, Bird, or Kobe.

Scariest player in terms if you're not used to old school trash talk? Kevin Garnett, easily. Plus, we know he knows low blows that gets under player's skins.

Scariest player with the ball in his hands? Paul, Irving, Crawford, Wade, and Rose when healthy. Your ankles need to be worried, and it's obvious players are frightened of Kyrie Irving's handles, as well as Paul and Crawford. I've seen just the other day OKC refused to go solo on switches because they didn't want to be matched up with Irving and his handle. They refused to go through picks out of fear of being ISOed with him.

Same thing used to happen with Iverson.

No like shit you don't wanna meet in a back alley scary

[Money 23]

In terms of game? Kobe circa 2006 and 2007 he was a living legend, respected, at his peak, with a mentality to embarrass you and score as much as possible. His game relies on intimidation. Defenders were afraid during this time period. It was visible. Hadn't seen defenders so shook since MJ.

In terms of crazy-ness / physicality / fighting? Ben Wallace, for physicality ... Delonte West and Ron Artest (throwback crazy)

Sleeper pick, Jerry Stackhouse. Guy was ruthless and seemingly never lost a fight. I'd also nominate Tony Allen in terms of fighting.

In terms of in the open court, or getting caught under the basket with this guy having a full head of steam? LeBron, Wade, and Westbrook.

I think I'd least want to fight Tony Allen

[inclinerator]

[Thechosen1]

the fact david west never got mentioned in this thread is hilarious...no one in the nba messes with david west

[Michael_Wilbon]

If I was a blonde white chick, I'd say Kobe.

:applause:

[SourPatchKids]

Anthony Davis or Marquis Daniels. If I have never met him personally than easily Drew Gooden.

[Pushxx]

All jokes aside, Darko is one crazy mother****er.

[bmd]

NBA players don't scare me because none of them can fight from what I've seen.

[no pun intended]

Nate Robinson. Buffed up midgets are the scariest, and this one can jump.

[artificial]

Tough call, but I would sh

Maurice Speights is the scariest guy in the league, seriously.

May not be the scariest looking fool but I would not want to fight Nikola Pekovic. Dude is built and looks like warrior from medevil times

[kshutts1]

This post made me think of those jumping spiders...

Not only they huge (for a spider), but they can jump!

I think I will now call Nate Rob "Spider"...
