What defines a villain?
In the case of the 2015 NBA playoffs, answers vary.
As the first and second rounds have exemplified, villains aren't just players who create friction with opposing fanbases and generate on-court tension.
Those classic basketball antiheroes exist, without question, but we've reached the point where tactical approaches can be considered devious in and of themselves.
Just check with Cleveland Cavaliers head coach David Blatt after his near-late-game miscues in Game 4 against the Chicago Bulls, or Houston Rockets head coach Kevin McHale, who has implemented the Hack-a-Shaq strategy to no avail.
Using clutch play, verbal jabs and tactical missteps through Rounds 1 and 2 as a way to classify villainous proceedings, these are the names fans have loved to hate.
