Re: Which player do you tend to play most like?

Considering my favourite playstyle its gotta be Kyrie. Shooting 3s and nice handling is my favourite but because I'm one of the tallest in my grade at 6'6" I always get pushed to the 4 or 5 spot which is terrible
My ALL-TIME favourite player is Drazen Petrovic who I have watched SO many tapes of

Petrovic is a legend. Left us waaaay too soon. He opened the doors for european players in nba.

Steve Blake or JJ redick probably. I really just free myself open from three and shoot.

I play like LeBron, minus the size, skills, or athleticism.

Re: Which player do you tend to play most like?

I modeled my game after Sean Elliott, Grant Hill, and Latrell Sprewell, so a lot of what I do is predicated off of slashing and attacking defenders with reckless abandon. Often, like Sprewell, I'll forgo dribbling and shooting with my left hand on the left side of the court in favor of powering and exploding with my strong hand. It was a watershed moment in my life when I realized it was all about finding the best way to score, as opposed to using one's left hand just because I felt I was supposed to.

Recently, the hipster part of me has been kind of bummed about Goran Dragic's emergence. I don't pass like Goran or do any point guard things like him, but we attack similarly, and his signature behind-the-back move is something I've used ad nauseam for over a decade. I'm kind of afraid that if he becomes any more popular, more people are going to see that move and realize how easy it really is. It always tends to draw a reaction when I pull it off (as it does for Goran) but there's really not a lot to it.

The manner with which I attack in the open floor is an asset I'm proud to have successfully passed down to my younger brother, now a senior in high school. Post high school, I picked up a lot of Ginobili influence as well (I graduated in 2002, so the Euro moves were never really a thing during my high school days). As a result, my brother has a bit of that in him as well.

When I was in elementary school, I was forced to play down low because of my size, and I played much better face up rather than working down low. Now that I've gotten to be only 6'0" - 6'1", I've fallen into the PG role, if I ever play, but I'm like Hefty Lefty playing PG, but with a style like Rondo, sorta. I'm always looking for the pass rather my turrible shooting(which comes from not playing for years) and I'd like to think I'm ok on defense, but I like to focus on forcing tough shots, rather than get steals.

I play good D, have good vision, great passer, can't score (unless left wide open). Who plays like that?

I'm just a distributor on offense

I've gotten J.J. Barea before, but in all honesty, I'm not sure. I play hard, can score a bit, especially from outside, but not consistent enough to earn a Korver comparison. I do have a decent mid-range game, but I'm not very good at getting to the rack, so I rely a lot on floaters too. So, I guess Barea would maybe be an okay comparison, though generous.

At my advanced age, I unfortunately am left with hops like Scalabrine and handles like The Custodian...

Pablo Prigioni. Not something to be too proud of.

So you pass up open shots to pass it to a triple teamed Carmelo?

Essentially, yes. Pretty much the only time I attempt shots is when I'm wide open off of catch and shoots.

The player I tend to play like is Wilt Chamberlain. He's the ultimate player. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1394146018.987487.jpg
