Players That Are KNOWN To Not Give It Their All 

Post#1 » by DCAllAmerican » Mon Jan 28, 2008 4:36 am

Basically I am asking for a list of players that are notorious for not "bringing it" on a night in/night out basis.

Im working on a paper and just needed some "expert" advice. 8)

all of them, you want proof watch any team in the league for a full season and it is noticeable when their stars are not giving it their all.

yeah, there arent too many guys who play hard every minute. This would be a much shorter list. You could argue for Haslem, Noah, Lee, Kaman, Parker, Ginobli

The 1960s Celtics were known for stockpiling their power during the regular season. But of course they could afford to, and rings don't lie. :D

why have I only seen McGrady's name mentioned once in this thread? it's clearly the Carter-McGrady family..real talk though, what's up with that family? did their parents just discourage effort?..did they all just sit around and watch tv when the families got together?..
