    Name as many basketball players that are currently in the NBA who are left-handed.

    And say who you think is the best left-handed basketball player.

    I can't think!!! All I remember is Cuttino Mobley and Emanuel Ginobili...

    Whoever can list the most gets a special treat.

    Are you sure they're all lefties?

    As a left-hander myself, I always like Chris Mullin. Wish I had his game!

    Chris Simms.


    Isn't he a lefty?

    If he was right handed, maybe he could throw less interceptions.

    Jermaine O'Neal isn't left-handed. He just plays like it.

    Like me. I'm righty, but I've been called "Kukoc" more times than I care to mention. I cannot go to my right for the life of me. I can defend well in any direction, but I can only drive right for the sake of a hard-dribble and pull-up jumper.

    Antoine Walker has the same problem, but he finishes with his right hand, which screws everything up. You wonder why he shoots so many threes.

    And next time you see a highlight-show bit about Grant Hill, watch his Orlando highlights (there are some) and notice how many times he drives left. It's every got damn time, only because he can't push off of that left ankle. That bum left ankle turned him into a left-handed player.

    LOL>.....JASON COLLIER too... :( Wow......that's a lot of leftys on our team. I never noticed.

    OKAY.

    Is it true that left-handed players shoot better than right-handed players? It seems like left-handed pitchers throw better than right-handed pitchers...
