Sħãlïq™ Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 (edited) Reggie Evans voted dirtiest player in the NBA http://clippers.ocregister.com/files/2012/04/AP120318047251-1024x902.jpg Reggie Evans has endeared himself to Staples Center fans, hearing chants of “Reg-gie, Reg-gie” after grabbing a key offensive rebound or making a hustle play. But while Clippers fans love him, the rest of the NBA has a very different opinion. In its annual survey of NBA players, Sports Illustrated revealed that Evans has been voted the dirtiest player in the league. Evans won the award without much competition, receiving 37 percent of the vote (118 players responded to the survey). The results, though, might have been different, had Metta World Peace’s elbow shot occurred prior to the poll being taken. 1. REGGIE EVANS, CLIPPERS PF 37% T2. METTA WORLD PEACE, LAKERS SF 9% T2. KEVIN GARNETT, CELTICS PF 9% 4. JEFF FOSTER 5% 5. GERALD HENDERSON, BOBCATS 4% FAST FACTS: The poll was completed before World Peace went all Ron Artest on Thunder G James Harden on Sunday, concussing Harden with a 'celebratory' elbow and earning himself an ejection plus a 7-game suspension.... Kings' DeMarcus Cousins leads the NBA with 249 personal fouls but did not receive a single mention. Meanwhile, Evans is tied for 127th in the league with 117 PFs.... Foster retired on March 21.... Clippers PG Chris Paul also received 4% of the vote.... In a separate poll of NBAers, the trio of Evans, Garnett and World Peace (tied with Sasha Vujacic, who now plays in Turkey) were deemed the league's most "annoying" players.BASED ON 118 NBA PLAYERS WHO RESPONDED TO SI'S SURVEY Source Edited April 25, 2012 by Sħãlïq̵' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
