Sadly, only five guys can be on a team, even an imaginary one, but I decided to double-up in the case of equally despicable twins. (After all, they don\u2019t like to be split-up, so I\u2019m doing them a favor.)<\/p>\n<p>Okay, let&#8217;s see just who made my team.

He\u2019s downright despicable. And he\u2019s just about universally despised. I don\u2019t think I\u2019ve ever seen so many dirty, creepy, and just plain sneaky plays from one player in all my decades of watching basketball. And then, during these latest play-offs, he \u201cearnestly\u201d explained why he didn\u2019t really do whatever it was he was rightfully accused of.

When the Warriors didn\u2019t make the play-offs last year, he joined their commentating panel, and was awful, with his horrible voice.

And perhaps worse\u2014Kyrie refused to get vaccinated, so he had to sit-out all the Nets\u2019 home games this past season because of the Big Apple&#8217;s rightful Covid rules. He knew his stance was hurting his team, but he didn\u2019t care. (Just look up some of what Stephen A. Smith has said about that situation.)
