Dont see PGs with the same touch when it comes to passing. Doesnt seem to be as much misdirection like with Maravich, Magic. Even Nash.
Im sure you can find clips of great passes, but I dont see anyone with the same flair, who puts it togerher the same way. More dependent on their athleticism these days. |

Also, check out some old Arvydis Sabonis highlights. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

yeah man Jokic's courtvision is sick. Kyrie still has the handle that gets him anywhere on the court he wants to be

Maybe its because he's a big. Now that I think about it, he sort of has a Meadowlark Lemon kind of passing game. Makes great passes without moving much. Quite familiar with Sabonis. Was impressive how he remade his game when he got too old for athletic moves. Was a more cerebral player at that point. |

Forgot to add Mark Jackson his rookie year. It was one no look pass to Ewing after another. Last time we had so much young talent on the roster. Rod Strickland would be drafted as well. Built mostly through other means. We have a good mix of youth and experience this time around.

Historically I’d have to go Magic, Kidd and Nash. Currently active players - LBJ, Jokic, Ben Simmons, Teodosic, and Rubio.

Kyrie’s handle is pretty sick.
Rubio’s command of the ball is excellent. All time, Maravich was just a different kind of ball handler. |
