Trash talk is an integral, and often hilarious part of the game. According to Stephen Curry, Nate Robinson and Chris Paul are particularly adept at the art of chirping on the court.
From TBL:
“Nate Robinson, when he was on our team. He’s a 24-7 trash talker and and hype man. He talks constantly on planes, in the locker room, wherever. It’s all in good fun. On the court I’d have to say Chris Paul. Back when he was on the Hornets, they had a huge 20-point lead on us and he went to the bench. We went on a run and cut the lead to like three and then they went to put CP back in. He was sitting at the scorer’s table and telling me and coach, ‘time to put the closer back in’ and he was doing what baseball managers do – put their arm out and tap on it, like they’re going to closer in the 9th inning. He was laughing while doing this and yeah, they came back and won.”
