Haters? Who do you hate and who's nuts do you ride?

[Useruser666]

Mine are...

Nut Rider:

Duncan
Gino
Parker
Nazr
Barry

Hater:

Rasho (Whom, I might have to label under nut rider soon.)
Hedo

Now you all don't be shy!!! :lol

Nutrider (um ... do I have to use that word?)

Back in the day, I used to be a big Bowen and Pop hater.

I think Sequ is a NutRider of Duncan, Parker, Brown and Bowen. And a Hater of the rest of the team, especially Pop.

But I don't really worry about Sequ. In 2003, he was a Stephen Jackson and Manu hater. And after we won the Finals, he was on the ground outside SBC Center crying, praising their names.

So he's just a fan like the rest of us.

so IF Sequ can attend games,
this means he's not in a psyichiatric asylum (of course the modern ones that allow their tenants to own a computer),
or just escaped on that day??

WTF is a nut rider? I thought that was a player who you are on their ass to play well?

crap.........

[timvp]

WTF is a nut rider?

Just go look at your Vince Carter poster above your bed and you'll figure it out.

[Kori Ellis]

huh?

The phrase is "raising eyebrows" or "opening eyes." Not "opening eyebrows."

[SequSpur]

Just go look at your Vince Carter poster above your bed and you'll figure it out.

Dude, I don't get the nutrider?

When somebody is riding my nuts that means they are on my ass or they really are riding my nuts.

Hate-
Nazr
Tmass
Mushrooms and brocoli
bad tasting beer
Kobe Bryant

[whottt]

Nutride - No one. I defend those who need to be defended because of popular misconceptions and inaccurate analysis.

Hate - No one on the Spurs currently...Historically:
AJ(and this isn't a misguided label, it's reality)
Rodman

Non Spurs -
Malone
Juwan Howard
Shaq
Danny Fortson
Phil
Ray Allen
Vince Carter
Jalen Rose
Steve Francis & Cuttino Mobley

On Probation -
Garnett(Was on my hated list for alleged comments about Duncan's mother, suckerpunching Duncan, and just being a prick in general, losing seems to be humbling him though)

TMac(was on my hated list but might be moving off sometime soon if he maintains his recent trend of giving credit to his opponents and not making excuses for losing)

Webber - I don't hate Webber, I just think he's a choking whining bitch and I would get physically ill if he was on my team.

[timvp]

LMAO @ SPARKY

Hater
Any Spur who is either playing scared, playing stupid, doesn't care or is coasting through the season. At different points this year, this has been the case for Rasho, Barry and now Nazr. Last year this was Hedo.

Nut Rider
The truth. I only defend players if they are getting bashed for faulty reasons. When Bowen joined the Spurs, I defended him when others bashed him for not being good enough offensively. When people said the Spurs could never win a title with AJ, I said they could. When people said starting a young French point guard was stupid, I defended Parker. When people held Malik Rose to Tim Duncan and David Robinson standards, I've defended Rose.

[BronxCowboy]

Hater (?)
Pop (not really, but I'm sure his nut-riders label me such)

Very interesting posts! Some have been more honest than others. :lol

Since many are including non-Spurs, I will add some new names to my list.

Hate:

Kobe
Payton
Malone
Shaq (He's almost off this list.)
Sura
Fortson
Tmac
Vince Carter
Carmello
Steve Francis
Garnet - (Hey Whottt, remember when he got Duncan ejected in that one game?)
Amare

Nutride:

It's hard to pick non Spur nutriders.

Dirk
Marquis Daniels
Malik

[Rummpd]

Hater:

Allen
VC
Jason Kidd (for being spoiled)
Shaq
Kobe
Jackson the coach
Vescey, Stephen A Smith, Greg Anthony
Johnson the coach
Malone for leading the Spurs on half the year + years of thuggish behavior
Mutombo = Spur killer on defense
James for all the hype
Amare for the single most unclassy thing in a game ever = the push ups, then he got punked on the 2 FTs that followed.
Mourning for spurning a team that gave him millions when he was sick.


"NutRider"

All the Spurs period - each one is a "good story" in their own right and many under-appreciated.
Wade who is the real deal
Reggie Miller for sticking to his guns retiring on a high note and a classy career
Magic Johnson coming of age as a commentator calling out the Lakers early this year
Charles Barkley for screaming Ginobli
Allen Iverson for showing signs of maturity and playing through endless injuries this year
David Dupree, USA Today, seeks fan input on issues every week and personally responds to e-mails.
Stern for not backing down on his punishments of Artest despite the pressure.

[tlongII]

The talentless hack known as Bruce Bowen.

[Spurminator]

Although I like having a bruiser in the middle at times, I must say I cringe when TMass takes the floor and the outcome of the game is still up in the air.

And I admit I'm prone to looking for silver lining in some of Bowen's off games.

[picnroll]

Hater?
Well let's say I'm beginning to think the best thing about Nazr may be his ending contract. Not that I'm sorry Malik wnet for him as there's only so much Holt will spend. I do wish Spurs hadn't thrown in the '05 Suns pick as this may be a windfall draft with the new CBA and under 20s declaring.

Minor nutriding
Add me to the list wishing Spurs had plopped down a pick on Varejao.
