    I personally find players like Jimmy Butler or Anthony edwards likeable even though they don’t have that humble personality their attitude and boldness on and off the court is just fun to watch

    • @whatslaps
      @whatslaps  Рік тому +11

      yeah, humility is sometimes disguised and arrogance as well. I think it's important to be aware of who you are and the state you are in. Being able to accept criticism is a sign of humility and both of those guys seem to be able to take a lot of heat.

    Jrue definitely seems like a good guy, as a Celtics fan I’m looking forward to having him on the team, not just for personality likability, but for his style of play too. Grayson top 5 most dislikeable, but let’s keep positive vibes here. Bron a cool dude too, appreciate his way of being, having fun and/but keeping it real, obviously his skill/talent/ability speak for itself. What did you say instead of Jordan? Yeah an uplifting teammate who is able to equally help push you to be the best player you can be is an important aspect of being likable. As opposed to trying to spark a reaction off of dogging you. Jokic is really fun in many ways, the push was not nice but understandable and forgivable in my opinion. First guy I think of for likable is Vince Carter and I think I heard that a lot of guys from around the league always liked Jamal Crawford. Thanks again for the viddy, you’re one of my most likable UA-camrs.

    • @whatslaps
      @whatslaps  Рік тому +2

      It's going to be interesting Jrue is coming off the bench in Boston. I wonder how he'll feel about that. I think Boston is good, but they'll struggle against Giannis in the playoffs. Unless big Al can step it up one last time. I accidentally said Lebron instead of Jordan. Had to have the robot fix my mistake. Vince was awesome back in the day. I think people down play how the dunk contest can raise a player's profile. I'm honestly surprised people don't take a page from VC's book and put on a show all-star weekend. Great leader too. I never really got to know Crawford while he was playing, but he's great on NBA today. And you're too kind haha

    One of my favorite players in the league has to be Jalen Brunson.
    His story is awesome.
    From the 33rd pick to the Knicks star player.
    I mean he always makes the big shots at the big moments.
    If the Knicks are down by 7 with 2 minutes to go, he always makes a 3 to put them down by 4.
    Shots and moments like that make him my favorite player.

    LeBron is a narcissist if you like him that's fine but he's not likable. He take subtle shots at his teammates when they aren't playing well. You can guarantee once the team struggles you're likely on the trading block. A player is never safe playing with that guy.

    Ngl I love your content but you definitely fall for the fake humbleness that lebron puts on(on and off the court). Off the court his ego gets to him whenever he's in the discussion if the greatness of all time. You definitely see it gets the best of him whenever someone put him under jordan. Other then that he's okay I guess. He could also do less tweeting about political things he's not properly educated on.
    On the court he's a monster but how he micromanage his teams behind the scenes is pretty despicable. That's why other all time greats have a hard time playing beside him or under him. They don't play in a system that benefits the team, they play in a lebron system where he controls the offensive ans hardly plays off ball.
