Woah! Eny with the anger!

Eny you get my vote as someone who fits the description of 'Warrior'

No harm no foul man.

It would be nice to get more than a bland general statement.

Like to me mentioning sprewell and LJ just brings back so much emotion. Everyone remembers the 4 pt play and Sprees heroics......but individually where are you coming from?

To me it was their willingness to take on guys they weren't supposed to. LJ played and scored on guys that towered over him. Sliding, pivoting, pump fakes, fade aways.....he was simply a monster. His personality was off the scale. He rallied the troops, he was vocal in the huddle and on the court. The team fed off him. He played hurt, and he gained weight and lost weight depending on whether he was gonna be the starting 3 coming into a season or the 4. He was a ****in warrior.

Sprewell played in attack mode. He was always on his ****. He didn't stop attacking the rim whether it was a runner, or one of his trademark tomahawk dunks. He went hard on defense. He pushed the rock. He was always attacking. He always played on the cusp of madness. He shut his mouth about guarding the guy Houston couldn't. He didn't bitch about being forced to play the 3 when he clearly was a natural 2 guard. He just showed up and balled out hardcore. He was a muthafukin warrior.

Personally i would never put greg anothony in as a warrior. I thought he sucked and never had the heart of a champion.

There are alot of guys who haven't been mentioned. Xavier McDaniel, Mark Jackson, Doc Rivers, Gangsta Greg Anthony, Anthony Mason, Anthony Bonner, Terry Cummings. I will never forget when X said that you could put him in a locked room with the entire Bulls team and that he would be the only to walk out.

X-man was a crazy dude. Between him Oakley and Mason? They had Pippen scared to drive. They had Mike and pip jumping for joy when they did manage to score in the paint. Gangstas! Its not a game man it was war.

Mark aguirre, rodman, isiah, dumars, vinnie, laimbeer, edwards, etc.....warriors!

Robert horry, horace grant, mario elie, brian shaw, etc......where are these players now in todays nba?

xman had a dissapointing regular season, and a dissapointing playoffs vs. the pistons. but then he totally b tchslapped pippen...

i can't believe none o'yall mentioned my man Charlie Ward... i don't think u gotta be a brash tough guy or behave demonstratively on the floor like Spree, Oak or Mace in order to be a warrior... Charlie Ward was a quiet, unassuming guy but damn, he was a tough little mofo w/a ton of heart, & what he lacked in talent he made up for in the way he hustled his butt off on the court... IMO i would love for Nate to pick up on some of that & become a leader on this team one day... i think he has it in him to be a warrior, if he ever learns how to control that damn temper of his.

that right there is 1 of my alltime favorite Knick moments... even tho i like Kobe, man, Childs just straight up punked him on national television that day.

JVG was a work a holic, rose from nowhere to become a wealthy elite coach, and would run his tiny ass on the floor. Grab Alonzo's large leg, or get in between a camby punch, the man had spunk!

Scott Skiles was intense as a player. He went after Shaq (his teammate).

Must include Mentally tough which takes Spree out of the equation for me. Stupidity and being irrational take you down. Starks was an emotional player and a great athlete, but his defining moment he did not get it done. Many forget his lack of dedication. He spoke the words but actions (grandmaGate, GolfClubGate) were black marks against him.

On the court being clutch is being a warrior. guys like Reggie Miller who win games at the last second are tough SOB's.

I'll put LJ cuz he was clutch and worked hard, as of course Ewing. Bernard King was excellent as he went from being a young punk to a consumate professional on and off the court. His preparation to his body was fantastic.

Larry Brown, not as a knick. He did a **** job here, but he got NCAA, Olympic gold (starting pt)and NBA champiionship on his belt. That takes toughness!

Phil Jax as a player was tough, sacrificed his scoring, and is the greatest coach of all time.

Oak is a warrior, but a bit over rated.

Chris Dudley. Had no offense but got a 7 mil a year contract to be ewings back up and played hard. Took a beating for the team and got the job done.

clyde kept his emotions in check and let his game talk. A true warrior.

Charlie Ward was a warrior on a crusade. He got a lot out of his talent.

Sweetney, never mind!
