With all the talk on Irving's personality and team chemistry, I was wondering what people thought of these 6 best players left in the playoffs from a personality perspective (I realize we could have Curry on here, but he has played pretty poorly and has not really had any 'personality moments' these playoffs. Here are a few of my thoughts on their personality from what i have observed. Note I can add stuff to this post as others discuss that i am probably forgetting.
Giannis- Generally very humble, celebrates some on the court for dunks or explosive plays. Doesn't seem to do a ton of trash talk (said i am unstoppable this year in-game, but not directed at anyone).
Durant - Can be a bit prickly with media at times (didn't talk for a week to reporters over new york rumors) Recently declared himself unstopabble/best during Clippers story
Leonard - The lowest expression of emotion of any guy on the court. Often referred to as being like a robot. Dunked over two players before halftime yesterday and acted like he had hit a free throw in a preseason game.
Embid - Prolific trash talker and troller. Very very good at getting crowd into the game when things are going well. Did windmill dunk to excite crowd. Made jokes about warriors losing 3-1 while in first round, laughed about elbowing Jared Allen in the head in post game.
Jokic - Hardest guy in the playoffs to describe his personality. I have seen very little celebration or frustration on the court. Can't think of any notable quotes from him in pressers during playoffs.
Lillard - Tremendous swagged in big moments (see elimination of OKC) generally doesn't seem to do a ton of on-court theatrics or commentary in the press. Believe he has commented on being underrated.
Harden - Known for flopping, being very quirky, unorthdox game. Complains visually and verbally on court. Can't think of many notable quotes in press conference this playoffs, or over the years.
