  1. I left out Moochie, Cuttino, and others but just want to know your favorite ball-handler was. Mines was torn between Stevie Franchise and the Beard. CP3 was definitely the Point God and I was stoked Skip made the transition from street ball legend to the Rockets (having somehow owned bootlegs of the first And 1 Mixtapes). My late father blessed me with unlimited blank VHS tapes, two recorders, and League Pass so unofficially I was my middle and high school’s bootleg specialist with libraries of NBA games pre-YouTube era lmao

    Harden is my guy, I’m still rooting for him. The way he could handle a ball, how he switched from SG to PG so effortlessly, he’s gotta be my favorite ball handler.

    Rafer ❤️
    I still wear his jersey to games sometimes
    Used to love Aaron Brooks and Kyle Lowry too.
    Those late 00s/early 10s rockets were so fun to watch

  4. There’s a lot to unpack in this Calvin Murphy image. Why’s he wearing a baby head shape helmet? Also he hasn’t aged a day, but at the same time already looks like 50 yo man here?

  5. Murphy was before my time but in no particular order, James Harden, Raefer Alston, Chris Paul and Aaron Brooks.

    Franchise by a mile. Idc if harden was better. Stevie is ours!

    rafer never really got to showcase his and-1 dribbling skills in the nba. JVG wouldn’t stand for it. calvin murphy was before my time. torn between franchise and cp3. francis was good for a couple highlights a game. cp3 was steady and would bust out the shammgod or some fancy dribbling every game too.

    Kenny Smith, obv, b/c he would throw it to Robert Horry, who would throw it to Hakeem.

    Really? No love for Kenny “The Jet” Smith. He was our pg during our 2 championships.

  10. ant-farm-keyboard

    I thought Aaron Brooks and Kyle Lowry had good handles too

  11. You forgot Dwight Howard. He’s known for handling balls

  12. nonetimeaccount

    Franchise and Skip easy if we’re talking straight handles

  13. I’m gonna go Skip to my Lou because I worked with his mom and she introduced us!
