If KG knew about Duncan's mom he's the biggest fvck of this era. He was already one of them.

The answer to this question has to be Walt Frazier, right? I'll also nominate Tim Duncan, Oscar Robertson, Dave Cowens and Bill Russell.

i see that "coolest" here means total robotic lack of any human emotion.
that's cool when you're 14. then it stops being cool.

Cool is on the way to being ice cold. Ice cold means no emotions.

Then they had a cozy photo shoot for Slam magazine where they hyped each other up. Duncan would be a real wimp if this was said and he was ok with it. KG outplayed Duncan in both of the last two games in both series but the mime was careful to avoid saying Duncan crushed KG afterward.

And the guy who did the mime shouldn't be using the NBA Logo like that.

So true. Phil Chineir once clean pushed Frazier in the face and Frazier hardly acknowledge it. The refs didn't see it. The Bullets were winning too. Frazier totally humiliated Phil the rest of the game, to the point where Phil was looking to the refs like they should stop the contest. I think Walt hit his next 12 shots to blow the game out and he never left Walt - silky - cool - smooth - pimp mode either. The Knicks team, which still has the reputation of being the smartest team ever, just kept giving it to Clyde and isolating him and it had the effect like they were under the high beams in a play. He posted Phil deep and had him jumping in all types of different directions like he was puppet.

Frazier never seemed to look at Phil. But you seen the vindictive side of Clyde. It was a nonviolent slaughter. The kind where the victim goes home and cries and the watchers say to themselves, "still waters run deep."

I think Doc J was real cool on the court, but Frazier was the coolest.

That lets us all know, that you're an awful little p!ssant of a human being. I hope you continue to be a miserable little sh!t, for the remainder of your sorry @ss days here on earth.

Also, in other news, I've always hated KG. And went HAM on anyone saying he is "from" my hometown. he's from a small redneck city in SC. NOT CHICAGO.

Co-sign Sam Perkins to the gills.

Love Jimmy Butler's business-only demeanor, and think what Pop said about Kawhi applies to Jimmy most of the time too.

definitely weird meme with the Logo and terrible colors :facepalm

Still, as usual you contradict yourself (next post with Frazier), and make no sense.

D-Wade and Agent Zero for me

Today I'd say someone like Bradley Beal has a pretty cool demeanor

You said "had" so I assume you mean the past but if current, I'd have to say Paul George. He's almost too cool and laid back on the court sometimes.

[ArbitraryWater]

Okay, basically, everyone who was or is great

[pudman13]

Wes Unseld also comes to mind.

Duncan.

https://xaintferick.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/trashtalk3.jpg

Never happened. Its one of the fans (haters?) created myths.

If you track down the source, its a single, anonymous source. Nobody ever confirmed it, nobody heard it on the court in that game, no video exists. It was a Playoffs game, and yet - nothing.

:lol Awe, I hurt your little feelings because you believed in a little lying picture that some drunk made up. Maybe when you grow up and get a life you won't take such nonsense so seriously. Come' on did me exposing that stupid hater crap really tear at you this bad? You're like a negative energy disaster.:lol

Did it take you months to get the lie straight and thinking of a patriotic way to fortify your horrible art. Its garbage, weak, sentimental and makes your love look like a wimp. Really??? And since when is the ability to see detail equivalent to being a miserable human being? Are you just being extra redneck particular?

What were the cartoons like your town? It sounds like KG said this to you and you are putting it on Duncan.

Frazier was in the era when cool was a style sought after and he's still being called cool decades later. You have absolutely no clue at all what we are talking about. You said, a few post back, "Okay, basically, everyone who was or is great." WHY ARE YOU always jumping in something that you have the least bit of knowledge about. If I made sense to you I would have to be clueless.

Eventually, it is just that... anyone gonna tell me MJ or Magic didn't have a cool demeanor?

Im sure folks feel Griffin, or Paul deserve a shout.. Harden often looks the same as Butler, perhaps even disinterested (which is not good obv.)... Moses, Hakeem after religion, etc. they all could be mentioned.

Not from the US???

Those are not great examples but it could be interpreted that way. I would define it as a smooth style instead of demeanor. A guy who doesn't get rattled and exudes calmness even in crazy situations (this is why I told the Clyde story - he beat Phil Cheniers butt after getting punched in the face and you didn't even see it - but you felt it. Clyde even took the punch cool). KG isn't cool on the court but is in interviews. KG and Magic wear their emotions on their sleeve so to speak which is almost opposite of cool. A cool guy is style over emotion, easy movements over overt ones and with grace as a necessary spice to the style.

If it happened in a playoff game it was at latest 2001??? Pop was a military man and KG wasn't retaliated on. I would hope somebody on the Spurs (Malik Rose) would take the shot at Garnett. Duncan is not a wimp, nor is Pop nor the team.

No feelings hurt.
Just an appropriate amount of disgust for fans of Garnett, and even more for disingenuous, poor debaters like you. My background is the furthest thing from redneck lmao.

*punches pg in stomach and spits phlegm on him, and, with a cool demeanor, walks off, calmly*

Halfwit, this is your response to me after I just said another person's post wasn't true:


That lets us all know, that you're an awful little p!ssant of a human being. I hope you continue to be a miserable little sh!t, for the remainder of your sorry @ss days here on earth.
:lol You sound like your feelings were massacred, not just hurt. Like I'm supposed to know that you would go total sour mode because I mentioned a HOFer.

You weren't even in the thread at this time, idiot. How could I have been debating you? It was my first post as well. Disingenuous, really. Just read this whole post and see where that word lands for you.

Jason Williams, a white boy with street dribbles in the NBA, doesn't get more cool than that.

Wait so now MJ is not only the most intense and hyphy player in NBA history, he's also the most cool? Alright. I can see that. Been a while since I practiced my mental gymnastics tho.

I realize some people lose their shit because they think people keep putting MJ the GOAT at everything, but this one he does belong in the conversation. It was a huge reason for his marketability.

I would have McGrady at the top of my list doe

According to Popovich, MJ is the standard for two-way play:



"He (Kawhi) has the ability to do what Michael Jordan did at both ends, and I don’t mean he’s Michael Jordan,” Popovich said. “But you think about the best players in the league, they’re not two-way players. He wants to do that.”


So MJ deserves props for being the goat in many areas - obviously, MJ wouldn't BE the goat if he wasn't goat at many things.

[Pointguard]

MJ is more swag than cool. The guy that he said inspired him, the jump shooting guy, was super cool.

Ray Allen is super cool as well.
