http://www.nba.com/suns/photogallery...isliked_1.htmlTop 10 Suns Villains
With LeBron James making his return to Cleveland last week, Suns.com decided to take a look at 10 players that Suns fans like to dislike most.
1. Kobe Bryant
While the list has been dominated by Spurs, it should come as no surprise for Suns fans to see the most disliked opponent, Kobe Bryant, wears purple and yellow. While Horry's story is said and done, dislike for Bryant grew as recently as last season.
2. Robert Horry
Perhaps no player has warranted more boos as a Suns opponent than former Laker/Spur Robert Horry. Not only did Horry force his way out of Phoenix with his "terrible towel" but may have also cost the Suns a le with his Steve Nash hip-check in 2007.
3. Bruce Bowen
Seeing Bruce Bowen wearing a bowtie as a comentator for ESPN may be the only justice we see served to the former Spur.
4. Tim Duncan
While players like Manu Ginobili and Tony Paker may receive more boos than Tim Duncan, the center gets the nod as the most disliked current Spur because he is, in a sense, the Darth Vader to San Antonio's "Evil Empire."
5. Joe Johnson
Joe Johnson hasn't worn a Suns uniform since 2005 and still hears it from the crowd everytime he touches the ball.
6. Antonio McDyess
In 1998, Antonio McDyess burned the Suns as a free agent to sign back with the Nuggets, but gained back a little popularity when returning to the Suns in 2003.
7. Manu Ginobili
If a picture is truly worth a thousand words, this shot of Manu Ginobili might just say it all.
8. John Paxson
Former Bulls guard John Paxson knows a little something about hurting Suns fans from beyond the 3-point line himself. His shot gave the Bulls the 1993 NBA Championship and Suns fans haven't forgiven him since.
9. Mario Elie
While he would ultimately join the Suns and change some opinions, Mario Elie and his kiss-of-death trifecta was a bitter pill to swallow for quite some time.
10. Tony Parker
A headache for opponents, Tony Parker is anything but a fan favorite in Phoenix.
Barkley might be the only Sun on the Spurs villain list.
The Parker picture is definitely photoshop material.
It can be inferred from this list that the Spurs own that ass.
I love how 6 out of 10 of the villains are/or were on the Spurs. Just shows how big of a rivalry it is between the Suns and Spurs.
If you want to get technical its 7. Dont forget about Elie
No worries 228, we prefer your threads. You get a 15 minute time bonus in my book.
Paxson was drafted by the Spurs and played two seasons in San Antonio. So that would make it 8.
Let me guess, the other 2 used to play for the Spurs?Paxson was drafted by the Spurs and played two seasons in San Antonio. So that would make it 8.
Lol...Awesome.Paxson was drafted by the Spurs and played two seasons in San Antonio. So that would make it 8.
