Chris Paul's Handles Broken Down to a Science

Every player can learn from how CP3 gracefully handles the basketball. Speed and height changes, controlling the ball outside of his body, craftiness, and so much more. I had to dissect them under the #AttentionToDetail microscope.

wide base seems by far the most unstoppable dribbling technique along with lifts and changes of speed

[@waleopakunle2109]

This channel is honestly so underrated.

you done went from a hooper to a science teacher😂

[@mindbully]

There’s effective ball handling and there’s trickery. CP is arguably the best balance of both.

Thanks for still making these videos your the 🐐🐐 for real

[@sofosarellis5837]

Οne of the things I always loved about CP was the fact that he knows how to navigate space prior to attacking. A lot of point guards just dribble up to the key and dish it. CP will get into areas where he gets a different view on the defense and he does this multiple times throughout the game. This drives a defense crazy because defenders are out of normal coached positions.

[@zennihilator3724]

Yup, CP3, Steve Nash and Curry probably the best ever at this. Keeping a live dribble while probing and snaking through the opponent half-court defense setup to find openings for layups, floaters, mid-range shots, lobs, cuts and kick outs to the 3pt line. Though Curry does it more from range and off-ball. Even by elite standards, most perimeter players offense laregly boils down to straight line drives to the basket taking advantage of speed, strength and athleticism, or just setting up 1 on 1 moves for a post up shot or a face up jumper, and then making the kick if someone is obviously open...

[@lamarkendricks9974]

What do you think of the Thunder's 3 guard lineup (Paul, Schroder, SGA) with Gallo and Adams holding down the paint? I love the innovation Donovan is implementing and it's paying off. Just wait till they can cash those draft picks in my god...

[@FrequentResonance]

Love the hop/hesi to read the Defense

[@warmbeergamingdude]

I love how CP3 uses the screen! After the opponent is screened he’ll slow up for the opponent and force them to ride his back and start flailing his head back like he’s getting fouled and attempt to get a high percentage shot off. 🤣 that’s classic CP‼️

I see what he means but just because you put your arm out doesn't mean its a push off sometime your arm just goes out but no matter what even if there already off balance you cant just push someone 5 feet away with one arm and bring it back that quick

It’s so annoying when people say Steph has better handles than cp3. Overall, Steph may have a quicker handle, but cp3’s ball control combined with his shifting directions puts him way over the edge.
