The Top 5 Turkeys of the NBA Season

It's Thanksgiving and that means it's time for unoriginal columns/blogs like this one.

5. Nate RobinsonAside from their lack of defense, Nate's three-point heave at the other team's basket perfectly captures the dysfunction that is the Knicks.

Jc 4. Joey CrawfordThis notorious referee made this list the night he slapped Doc Rivers and Kendrick Perkins with technical fouls for non-verbal gestures during the 4th quarter of a close game with Indy. I can't tell you how much I want Crawford to be linked in this betting scandal.

3. New Jersey NetsFour weeks into the season and the Nets have zero wins. 0-15. Guess I can't blame co-owner Jay-Z for attending more Knicks and Lakers games than Nets games this season.

Bbd 2. Glen "Big Baby" DavisIt pains me to include a Celtic on this list, but how can I overlook Baby's stupidity? Being called a turkey is kind considering he fractured his thumb during a 4 am fist-fight with a childhood buddy and missed 6 weeks of the season.
