Metta World Peace

He is a problem and at the same time an attraction for some fans. Don't forget he is the one that jumped into the stands while playing for the Pacers (2004) and beat on a fan. He also punched a fan in the face on the court. These fans might have been wrong but didn't deserve a beating. He is disgusting plain and simple.
