Most liked / least hated big time NBA players

Who do you think are the most liked / least hated big time (house hold name / borderline star) NBA players that are playing today? Throw out the loyalty to a certain team that youre a fan of.
There are only a few players that I can think of that almost all NBA fans like.
Curry, Duncan, DIrk, and Marc Gasol are the only ones that I can think of. Ive never heard NBA fans talk about how much they hate any of those players or dont like them.
Curry - Arguably the best shooter ever already. When hes on and is unconscious, hes the funnest player to watch. His shooting ability is as rare as it gets in the NBA.
Duncan - The Big Fundamental. He isnt an elite athlete or anything, but is the best PF of all time. Technique and fundamentals.
Dirk - Went on 1 of the greatest post seasons runs of all time. Basically single handily won the NBA Finals over the Heat. Was awesome to watch.
Marc Gasol - Great passing big with a great mid range game. Great post moves and fundamentally sound. Great D. Complete game.
Ive never heard people talk about how much they dont like any of those guys or about how they suck or whatever. And there arent too many players that are, for the most part, liked by almost all NBA fans.
Noah is close to being 1 of those guys as well. A lot of people didnt like him when he was 1in college. But hes almost completely changed his image in the NBA. Busts his arse, the best passing big with Gasol, and plays great D. But some people cant get over disliking him in college.
For example, guys like Dwight Howard, Griffin and LBJ dont fit the bill for this. They are great, but people have issues with them.
So who else do you think is a well liked , big time NBA player by majority of fans?

Andre Miller. Everybody loves Andre.
ETA: I guess I missed the "big time" part.

A lot of people hate Dirk.
And I don't get the Blake Griffin hate. What did he ever do?

I don't like Marc because I think his brother is better than him but some people disagree.
I also don't consider Marc a "big time NBA player".

Duncan isn't hated, but he isn't near the list of most liked players.
I think among retired players, no one hated David Robinson or Grant Hill. Hakeem, too, I believe.
Among current players, Steph Curry isn't hated by anyone I know. Durant is very well-liked, at least for now. And I'd say Anthony Davis is another good choice.

Throw in Kevin Love. There are basically no weaknesses to his game.

I can understand some people hating Howard and maybe even Griffin.
I will never understand the hate for LeBron.

Dirk? Lots of people hated Dirk and still do. Dude used to be an arrogant whiney baby (that's what other people said, not me).

I agree with Curry for sure, it seems everyone loves Curry, but I know several people who can't stand Dirk and Tim Duncan. I for one can't stand Tim Duncan, that is partially because I'm a Shaq fan. I will never forget that shot he put in Shaq's eyes in the finals. I also never liked him because that big eyed look with his hands out he always gave the refs when they made a call he didn't like. I respect his game though.

I can promise you that 99% of Suns fans hate him and anything to do with the Spurs.

I've never met a person who hates Zebo

LeBron and Kobe is well liked by me and that is more important to them than any fan base.
