AI I know for sure has some sense of loyalty to Philadelphia.
There's also Patrick Ewing. Although he did leave the Knicks at the end of his career, it was more business-related since he went to Orlando which was obviously not a contender for anything.
I didn't know KG was trying to get out of Minnesota. I don't understand these guys, one would think that being remembered and beloved by your fans was more important than riding the coattails of someone else's hard work just to get a ring. If he ditches the Wolves he'll be regarded as a traitor by many
It's like Michael Finley. That guy was a Mav for most of his career, then he ditches them for San Antonio before he gets too old. Although the irony of this year's playoffs is probably obvious to him.

I bet most Bulls fans are sick over Krause trading Brand for Chandler. I remember Krause saying something like Brand had reached his ceiling....and that Chandler and Curry had "Open growth plates" or some shit. What a disaster Krause became after Jordan left.
Reggie Miller is the quintessential "being loyal to his team" guy.

I don't know if they count exactly. It isn't like there's a threat those cats are earning under market value in the name of loyalty. Them's fools is gettin' PAID.
