BD was more athletic than Russ breh's. Most importantly, BD had much more body control and a much be handle. Russ may be a lil faster but BD jumped higher and had much more hang time. BD was something else pre injury
i doubt anyone really saw pre knee injury BD. Just like most westcoast knew Russ was an athletic defensive beast but rest of the country had no idea. If BD never tore up his knee and did NBA strength training i cant imagine what we would witness

No, Derrick Rose was before he messed up his knees.





Dennis Smith Jr. (top 5 pick) is pretty incredible as well.


I remember when i saw him live in 2011 i couldnt believe how much quicker and faster he was than everyone else on the court.

He's certainly in the top five all-time, along with Russell and Rose, maybe Robert Pack, Steve Francis, John Wall, guys like that. A guy who was extremely athletic but never gets talked about is Monta Ellis, at his peak he was faster than everyone I just listed.
