Lol, you guys are forgetting who you are talking about. He is the greatest man to ever touch a basketball, a living legend, 14 All star MVP titles, 6 time NBA championship recipient, 3rd highest points scored ever in the NBA, only Malone and Kareem AJ were in front of him, and after all that he still kept his head on his shoulders...which tells you something.

If you are that great, there are bound to be people "hating" on you, its human nature. Yet, my point is that he never let that come in the way of his game. You ever see him shove someone, put hands on another player, get into any lawsuits on or off the floor? No...because he carried his pride in a humble way, its hard not to be a little over confident when you are a skilled and great player, and for that he still carried himself with dignity and gentleman like attitude.

Now you wanna talk about non humble players look at the Lakers, they have two the most cockiest and non humble players in the NBA, one of which still graces the floor of league now. SO we cant judge a man by his actions when he was forced to act a certain way because of his large following combined with what we call "haters" Despite such a great pressure for him to always outperform others, and criticism, he still remained and is to this day one of the most humble players.
