Having great handles in the 70s means you could dribble the ball a little bit with your off hand.

90% of the guards in today’s NBA have better handle than Pete did. But that’s just what happens as sports progress.

Because the players are allowed to Palm & carry the ball while dribbling in today's NBA. Ball handling rules were much stricter pre 1980's.

90%

Kyrie probably.

Cousy, Pete, white chocolate, Nash and Kyrie are guys you could legit watch a 5 minute clip of them doing nothing but dribble and pass and still be entertained.

Naw man...Marovich would practice his ball handling out the window of his pops car as pop was driving. Go watch Marovich's training videos and appreciate the greatness

I’m actually shocked at out bad of a take this is.

In my 10 years here, it’s top 3 in just fricking outright shitty takes.
