I don't know, my basketball playing experience is pretty limited, pick up ball at assorted parks, YMCA, etc. But it was always pretty common for players to think that they are better than someone else. You kinda have to that attitude to be able to step out on the Court and play with any confidence. Does anyone dispute this?
So to me, none of this Marcus thought he was better than PJ, IT thought he was better than Dragic, BKnight thinks he's a better pure PG than anyone else, bla bla bla, is really very surprising or noteworthy.
The egos and confidence that these guy must have just to step out there on an NBA Court must be ridiculous. So I am pretty sure this kind of talk happens all the time, far more often than it trickles into the "news".
