    Lin with a 3 pt shot. So Lin with a hint of Curry. Top of the key screens to get the quick release 3 or drive in is my forte.

    Shaky handles, hot n cold, quick off the dribble, no weak hand game, bad shot selection sometimes. Yeah, got the whole package going for me.

    In my younger years, I modeled my game as a Steve Francis that can't/is too short to dunk. Does that equal Kyle Lowry? With prime Ron Artest on defense.

    At my best I am a spotty volume shooter that loves to just barrel into the paint for contact layups. Have a pretty reliable jump hook. I'm a short guy but a wide body that loved to go for blocks (pre ACL tear). Now I play like a past his prime Grant Hill.

    When I was younger and really short I tried to model my game after Allen Iverson, I always was that little kid that drove to the basket against the big guys.

    Now? I'm like a poor man's Steve Novak, except I don't hit my outside shots.

    Did you get taller? Time to play the post. I can't drive like I used to either.

    No, but I should have. I searched "foul out before halftime".

    As with most, I think when I was younger I modeled my game after Sam Cassell. I was fast, but didn't play that way. Always played under control at what seemed like a slow pace, not flashy, but effective. Kind of like Harden, but closer to Sam to me.

    This thread makes me miss old school basketball (early 2000s and before). Back then everyone had a very unique style.

    Nowadays I feel like players play more similarly thanks to coaches and trainers (and YouTube?).

    I miss the old days, especially the 90's.

    Troy Daniels, with a shot that looks like Dirk shooting.

    Come at me.

    I emulate Kobe Bryant in the post, and play like Dwayne wade on the perimeter. Well thats what most people say.
