Turn down 20 million dollars arguing you "have a family to feed" is still one of the craziest statements I've ever heard.

There was also an incident in 1994 when Sprewell's four-year-old daughter was mauled by one of his two pet pit bulls and Sprewell fought against the dog being destroyed. That's right, he cared more about the welfare of his dogs than his own daughter's safety.

I think Sprewell's career peaked when he was playing in New York. He was way more popular than he ever was in Golden State and the Knicks were in some deep playoff runs. His role was no longer the go-to guy but the Knicks' perimeter defender and fast break specialist. Unfortunately I think he was never apologetic about hitting PJ Carlesimo, and it seems to be a trait shared among many volatile players...

I love these video, Some other player i would suggest adding to this list is Kevin Garrnett, Pat bev, John stockton, draymond green, james harden, kobe bryant, zaza petulia, dennis rodman, ron artess, kevin durant, kyrie erving, ben simmons, and isaiah thomas

You got this all the way wrong. PJ had a reputation of being racist, and berating players in practice. PJ is hated by many players and personnel around the game. Latrell is LOVED by many basketball fans especially from that era.

Walt Frazier used to rip him on Knicks broadcasts, calling out his "matador defense".

Spree was a silly goose, but I enjoyed his time with the Knicks. He really played hard and did a good job.

This is a really interesting series, if they aren't already on your mind to do Zaza Pachulia, for i mean it's in your intros not really having much talent but out there to injure others or Vlade Divac floping. I don't have really any incidents to bring up but they overall for their time in the league seemed to be really hated.

Your vids are getting better and better. I had pretty much forgotten about Spree. If anyone remembers him now, it’s because of the PJ incident. This episode brought all of his many dramas back. Thanks!

These Videos are outstanding! Keep it up! Greeting from Germany

I like your work. You move along, you don't repeat yourself, the footage matches the narrative. Your opinions seem well balanced.

another great vid keep it up

Great content man. Subbed👍🏻

Spree was so good. Wish webber stayed in golden state they were a blast to watch together.

Even Mike was saying it like: "Damn. I didn't even know that you could DO that." I think Spree choked out his career that day! Malik Sealy and Earvin Johnson were better Timberwolves.

If any coach deserved to be choked, it was PJ Carlisimo. What a mouth on that sob.

0:30 Eddie Johnson is deceased, unfortunately. Not to be confused with the GOOD Eddie Johnson (take note, Chicago Tribune), who played with the Phoenix Suns, also with the Seattle Sonics, and then the Charlotte Hornets and Houston Rockets.

Always here

Brutal

Make 100,000,000 dollars in his 13 year career. 6 years it's gone. OK. He is now worth 150,000. The average Joe has to work 50 years to make 2 million total. Sprewell was making 7+ million a year. He was making ceo type wages. 175 times the average Joe and he has nothing now. Wow. I think he might have done something wrong. It's not his fault of course. It's society's fault.

First one you’ve gotten right so far. Straight up thug

MJ's the one to talk, he punched Steve Kerr.

I feed my family with $20. He cant feed his family for $20 million. I'll be damned. Im missing something.

I gotta feed my family

4:33 O.J. Mayo having a 164 game suspension?! 🤔

I was born in Seattle in 1973, where I grew up. Sonics and Blazers fan. Japanese-American and male. Gary Payton should be on your list. I loved Payton and Kemp, in 1993-96. But, after Kemp sabotaged the team, and then finding out years later that Gary Payton had a problem with EVERY teammate, I realized what a prick he was! He made Rashard Lewis cry during practice, for starters. It's one thing to have problems with teammates like Kendall Gill, Vincent Askew, Ricky PIerce, and Frank Brokuwski. But, when Hersey Hawkins (Hersey Hawkins!), Nate McMillan, and Sam Perkins (Sam Perkins!) come out later, and say that they did NOT enjoy playing with Gary Payton, that proves that PAYTON was the problem! I rooted for the 2005-06 Dallas Mavericks to win the NBA Finals, because I did NOT want Gary Payton and Jason Williams to win rings!

I remember when he choked Carlesmo out….smdh….it was the beginning of the end for the warriors…those were dark times as a fan…

Rider and him both jacked of long careers in the NBA both where fun to watch

Change the battery in your smoke alarm

I quit watching the Knicks when they got Sprewell and one or two other thugs.

8:50 Say it: Deeeeeeee----vorce!! Reeeee------pooooooo!!!

I've always had a love/hate thing for Spree. Not a great defender. Strong offensive player. Poor attitude that makes brothas look bad. He did things like breaking his hand in a fight at his yacht then lying about it, then choking his coach cuz he didn't like what he heard. To be honest, as much as I appreciate what he brought to the Knicks when he was there, he deserved to no longer get any love from the league. He had the nerve to actaully think he was worth more than 7M/year. Good riddance, Spree.

He was an angry, volatile malcontent.

Man GSW Hoop wit Hardaway, Sprewell, Mullin, Billy O n Webber coulda been n da Western Conference Finals fa sho

He was a model citizen.

To be fair I couldn’t feed my family with 20 million either

Being succesfull in sport doesn't protect you from being and idiot, evel and stupid . There are so many examples even nowdays.

Nikola Mirotic plzzz

He was treamaded to the Knicks and the Knicks have been GARBAGE ever since. You CANNOT have someone like this on your team at ANY COST.

How about Dennis Rodman?

It’s not sprewell as in sprewell but sprew ell

Better get LeBron on this list. Easily the most hated basketball player ever

I think the players were enjoying the coach getting choked lol... Took 15 seconds to intervene lol

I would say the bad boyz Detroit pistons I couldn't stand them still can't

Warriors fan here. Sprewell is a jerk. Hot take, I know lol

*beep*

ᴘʀᴏᴍᴏsᴍ 👉

Jus think if dey had cameras back den!! N Greg Papa brought up da checking incident when he asked P.J.what happened ta your neck n PJ said I was shaving tryna brush it off,. Den Greg Papa said it looks like somebody tried ta ring yo neck, den OJ spilled da beans dey were tryna keep it in house 🏠 as well!!

I think Spree is right up there wit Klay as far as GSW Hoop 2 guards go, Oops I 4got Mitch Richmond would b #1 n my book 📖

Buddy u wrong ta say dat after he blessed P.J. with da hands of 💘 n 20plus points Dat he fell off. Spree might notta been as good in NYC as he was n Oakland but he was da most popular player n Tha NBA from 99-01. Dats why he was maad cuz dey cashed Houston out n left him n cold 🥶 NBA terms.

I loved Spree. conservatives hated him. he was always fucked over by the refs, and let his emotions get hold of him. he was fantastic to watch.
