As of me, i don't particularly hold a grudge against Ray Allen, whose three pointer still haunts some Spurs fans. Actually, he has always been one of my favourite players.

Nor i loathe Kawhi Leonard. Yes, his leaving has been harsh, but i can't really hate him, he still did a lof for us and in the end we got a ring and some more competitive years. Not to talk about the fact that he did nothing with the Clippers, so it's not that he damaged us further.

I would like to know if some of you like or, better, don't hate, those players that are considered national enemies within your fanbase.

As a Bulls Fan it had to be Scottie Pippen , He did a lot of great things for the Bulls but he wanted to be the Guy for the team but never showed he was reliable at the clutch . He had that drama in 1994 where he wanted to sit out because he wanted to take the shot but was not given the chance to , instead being given to Toni . In all reality I would have lived with a Toni Kukoc shot over a Pippen shot and Felt Pippen would have missed that game winning shot . He also signed a long term bad contract for security purposes which pretty much secured financial cap space for the team in the long run but he wanted and was forcing his way out of Chicago , even if they were still in the run for that 2nd 3peat . He made a bad financial decision and pretty much didnt want to live up to his commitment . I dont hate the guy for what he did helping the bulls win 6 chips but you cant say he didnt damage the team with his antics from not wanting to come in a crucial playoff game , to wanting to be traded to not getting surgery to prepare for the final Championship run in 98
