Who is a player you just don't get the hate for? (alien.top)

As a companion to the "who is a player you don't get the hype for" thread, here is something more positive. Who is a player you feel is either disrespected, misunderstood, underrated, or straight-up maligned to an unfair degree?

My pick is THJ. Every single time I watch this dude play (usually against the Lakers) he looks like Prime TMac. He just gets to his spots, elevates, and knocks everything down with such a pure stroke. He seems unstoppable at times. And yet, I know Mavs fans constantly are disappointed with his inconsistent play, so maybe I am missing something with my few-and-far-in-between impressions.

Who else you got?

The hate Booker gets for having the audacity to talk shit and lose is wild

I’ve hated Booker ever since he pushed Schroeder in the back while he was mid air in the 2021 playoffs. They were losing the game and he threw a tantrum like a whiny little bitch.

You must also hate your all mighty king for his push on Mikal Bridges in preseason game that could’ve resulted in a serious back injury huh? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lvDOIBRppwc&pp=ygUfTGVicm9uIGphbWVzIHB1c2ggbWlrYWwgYnJpZGdlcw%3D%3D

I guess you haven’t seen the Schroeder one, completely different.
