The
shortest MVP in NBA history... Was the best scorer in the league...
Extremely quick... Outstanding ballhandling skills... Killing
crossover... One the best player in the NBA one-on-one...
Virtually unstoppable in the open court... Endless energy...
His shooting percentages are poor, but goes to the free-throw
line more often than almost any other player... Quick hands...
Plays with heart... A shoot first, shoot second type of guard... There are questions about his ability to play in a spread-it-around offense... Doesn't make teammates better... An icon of the league, anyway. |
