75% of us dropped him right there


This is funny to me becuz I remember seeing this and my opinion on him didn't change. I wasn't a fan of D12 before this but I didn't hate him. And this had nothing to do with my team. I don't know any of the history between Dwight and Stan Van Gundy so I wasn't about to judge from afar. The shyt with the Lakers I didn't really care about either becuz even tho I'm a Kobe fan I knew he could be hard on his teammates.

Shut your ass up, you sound like Dwight's agent. If you still can't understand why people hate him then you are retarded


- He tried getting his coach fired and lied to him. He held Orlando hostage for many months (2)
- He beefed with Kobe, Nash, coach. Went on twitter and said he will return, just to leave the team (4)


- He smiles when his team loses (1)

- He left Lakers because he didn't get the ball enough, and had the same complaint with Rockets and Harden (1)

- His basketball style isn't enjoyable, he picks up quick fouls, can't make free throws, and has a terrible post game. (1)

- He whines on every call and gets techs (1)

There are your 10 reasons, I can give you tons more why people hate him. Let's not even bring up his off court issues where it is easy to make fun of him..hanging out with underage girls and having like 20 baby mamas after he proclaims to be some saint christian.

Stop living under a rock

Look how LeBron left Cleveland:sas1:

Magic Johnson and LeBron both got coaches fired. But they are still liked:sas1:

Lebron is liked :dahell:
We've seen people burning lebron jerseys
Nobody cares enough about coward to burn his jerseys

I can't think of another NBA player the last 5-10 years whose been more hated by a fan base than lebron

People hate Dwight for different reasons, they've stated them here and each one is valid as far as this thread is concerned, since reasons where requested and reasons were given

Lemongrass, cherries, alkaline water
-When he was in Orlando he use to come to clubs and tell them he wouldn't come unless they comped him bottles. A multi millionaire who wouldn't buy a drink.

- Was in a off and on relationship with a 16 year old high school girl who was cheating on her boyfriend. Her man went through her phone and Dwight was begging like a simple for her to see him on away games. Her man only found out because she flew out like twice.

- Went to one of his parties, he was the corniest person there. We tried to give him dap to thank him for having us there and looked at us like Jordan looked at chamillionaire. Later he saw us surrounded by a group of whitegirls we knew and then he rolled over and tried to impress them and looked stupid. He was referring to himself as Superman and just being real cornball.

- One of his neighbors and me are tight. How I got to the party in the first place. He's a very rich and connected guy and he took care of Dwight and plugged him in with a lot of things and people when he got to Orlando. Went the whole leave or stay thing was going on the guys charity foundation was doing a thing for cancer kids and Dwight was supposed to be there. Dwight promised this man to his face that he wasn't leaving and would be there then flew out to LA and missed it. Sent dudes calls to voicemail the day of the event. Then Dwight calls him like a week later and says he forgot and mails him a pair of his new shoes.

Thats just the tip of the iceberg. He doesn't get hate for no reason.

Because he'd rather be a clown than a legit basketball player. Shaq was putting up way better numbers and people said he was too busy being a clown to win and had too many outside interest. Shaq was a beast though. Dwight not so much. He's like a glorified Kevin Willis. 15 & 12 are not superstar numbers.
