Why do some players scream "ey" or "hey" when driving?

I hope it doesn't evolve into this in 10 years:

The 1st one scared the shit outta me...

The verbal flop.

Haha exactly right. It's like flailing your hands in the air.

Kobe does it both ways....GFOAT

[dunksby]

It's a physical game ffs of course somebody is gonna scream from pain or grunt or shout or whatever, y'all act like the defenders are saints and don't do whatever they can to hurt the opponent so he loses his focus.

Tracy Mcgrady used to be my favorite. Just all the time I'd hear:

"OH SHIT!" as he came down the lane.

Boozer should be #1

[Blue&Orange]

Omri Casspi screams "Oy!"

[noosaman]

I believe it is their way of paying tribute.

[Quickening]

Kobe does it all the time.

So most people here go to actual games?

You can hear it on TV.

Kobe has been doing that "Ey" since the 3 peat years. Watch that horry game winning shot against the Kings game 4. Kobe drives to the basket and what's the first thing you hear out of his mouth? EYYY!

Bynum's is more annoying. HAY! HEY HAYYYYYY!!!

Yea, Bynum's is worse.

How can you guys not mention Lamar Odom? It's not necessarily done for fouls but he's constantly yelling when he's playing.

Amare Stoudamire's a big "SHIT!"-bomber too.

...Makes watching games with my lil brother awkward af

[C-Webb4]

That's not as bad as when guys yell "AND ONE!!!111"
That annoys me more.

Amar'e Stoudemire on every play?

[Derka]

Wade, Kobe and Pierce are easily the three worst offenders.
