I have him in my top 5:

1- Deron Williams
2- Jamal Crawford
3- Steph Curry
4- Derrick Rose
5- Dwayne Wade

All the above are counted when they are in their PRIME

Where are Kyrie Irving and Allen Iverson?

Both would be top 1 and 2 in my opinion

This is a very recent list. What about tim hardaway and allen iverson? And Kyrie's cross is better than steph's

I agree - the list will need to be:

1- Kyrie Irving
2- Allen Iverson
3- Jamal Crawforod
4- Deron Williams
5- Dwayne Wade

Good list. I'd probably put tim hardaway at 5 but it's splitting hairs. Both are worthy

I would agree Curry has a top 5 crossover.

But only in the regular season.

He was nice i mean honestly there's alot of guys with nice crossovers. J will, kobe and a bunch of others could be on here also. I actually like cj McCollum cross over also. It's Smooth as hell.

edit:

I remember Hill had a nice crossover, especially for 6'8". Pre-carry era too

Yeah hill had a nice cross. It was a bit tigher because of the rules but it almost makes it better. For 6'6 and up players i have to go with kobe. May be someone better but can't think of one at the moment. Paul George has a nice cross for a tall player.

AI, Hardaway, and Wade have the best crossovers to me. Kyrie and Steph have more well rounded great handles and ball control. AI had handles in general but he was almost a crossover specialist because his quickness made people overcommit after he’d blown by them 6 times already. Trying to keep him from going by is what had people so off balance. Made his crossover almost impossible to deal with.

Grant Hill was the same way. Insane first steps are a nasty combo with a nice crossover.

Didn't really occur to me to ask this question but now that you bring it up the last year was absolutely insane in terms of Curry dribbling through traffic and in a handful of cases even faking out all 5 opposing players on the floor. Have there been other stretches where other players have done the same consistently throughout a season?

Not sure but nobody else has had the privilege of playing in the weakest era ever so it's hard to compare tbh. Either way steph's cross and handles are up there with anyone. Hard to argue that.

I like Kyrie and Curry because they blend it in with a combo of moves.
I like Derrick Rose because he hits it clean and he doesn't need other moves to get a dunk off of it.
I like James Harden because his volume is double that of any other player. His volume of broken ankles is higher as well.
