Iverson is definitely the best in crossovers, no one can move like he do.

[@pertpert2081]

Tim way better

[@franknisi1998]

Thomas was the best out of this group. He was the most efficient and effective. Put him in today game and it would be harlem globetrotter time. Likewise Pistol Pete should be high this list

Plus back then they weren’t allowed to carry.

[@calvinsimpson1301]

Nah I think the further along we go, the more skilled ball handlers get. They've seen all the moves that didn't exist decades ago and have figured out much more efficient ways to improve at ball handling. Isiah would still be an elite ball handler today, but he wouldn't be above Steph and Kyrie

[@robmitchell3039]

@@calvinsimpson1301 they also play against weak defense. The top half of this list would just be turnover machines when Isaiah played.

AI has the killer crossover of all time.. Nobody beats The Answer when it comes to crossover

People always forget about Steve Francis

[@rodcav3]

Clearly they've never seen him play if they had...theres no way he doesn't make this list

[@evanmarks8153]

So here is a Steve Frances Story for you...I played with him when he was in high school. Picked his pocket once. Next play he went around my back and through my legs.

uhhh steve francis i’m tryna think of who you would take off for him... not jwill... not steve nash.. not tim hardaway.... he was flashy but those other guys are better

[@rodcav3]

@@treygocrazy394 True..but I think if were just talking about handles only ..Steve and Skip could replace all 3 of them..what makes those guy special was that not only did they have handles they could pass, play D and shoot. You are absolutely right...as all around players the were clearly better..but I'd give Stevie handle edge
