    I was wondering who yall would suggest the best ball handler in the NBA would be? There are so many ball handler but very little props for them in the league. Who has the best crossovers,tricks,or passing in the game?

    Rafer Alston (Skip to my Lou) has great skills but he recieves very little props.
    Larry Williams sense that he is better than Rafer and was seen crossing Iverson over in Rucker Park..

    so who would u think?

    my vote would be...
    Rafer Alston for best passing
    Iverson best crossover
    Shammgod overall handles

    :D

    Steve Francis? I love him and all, but he is far from the best handler ......

    AI and GP would be my choice.

    I am not a fan of his, but how can you have a thread about this subject and not mention Marbury?

    I always thought of it as "dribbles" being the fancy moves and "handles" as good ball control.

    I think the best ball handler of all time is John Stockton, right now, it's him and Kidd.

    Wow, that was one of the all time best bbs setups I've ever seen.

    Way to finish it off AntiSonic.

    Why don't we put it this way. . .

    Who has the best weak-hand dribble??

    Kobe, I think. His left handle is great. And he can drive to his right or left pretty efficiently.

    Even at the Rucker, I'd have to say Tinsley has the best handles of anyone.

    He's not in the league yet, but T.J Ford can handle the rock.
