Why he might be annoying:

    In a notorious incident during the 1984 NBA Finals, he clothes-lined Lakers’ guard Kurt Rambis at the end of a fast break (as a comedic result, Rambis clumsily stumbled as he tried to retaliate).
    Along with Larry Bird and Robert Parish, he was mentioned in an infamous Rick Pitino rant when the Pitino-coached Celtics were sucking.
    He was involved in an illegal under-the-table deal with mediocre player Joe Smith that ended up costing the Timberwolves several first round draft picks.
    Like Hulk Hogan, his last name is pronounced like there’s no ‘h’ (as in Kevin McKale).

Why he might not be annoying:

    Along with Celtic teammates Bird and Parish, he formed one of the best front lines in NBA history.
    He was part of three NBA championship teams.
    He had a very accurate shot.
    He was the first NBA player to shoot at least sixty percent from the field and eighty percent from the free throw line in the same season.
    He revolutionized pivot play with his array of low post moves.
    As a Timberwolves executive, he was instrumental in getting the team to draft Kevin Garnett, who ended up turning the franchise around.
    He was selected one of the NBA's 50 Greatest Players (1996).
    He appeared on a couple episodes of ‘Cheers’.
