Tim Duncan- Outlet Passing
The last two seasons I've noticed that a lot of San Antonio's fastbreaks start with Duncan either blocking a shot or getting a rebound and making a great outlet pass to a streaking guard. I've personally never seen a big man do this better (Only seen a few games/vids of Bill Walton and Kevin Love is pretty good too). I found this mix of some of Timmy's outlets that for some random reason features a Keith Sweat track

Re: Best Players At Specific Skills
Kobe - base line turn around jumper. Seems pretty automatic for him at this stage of his career. Cant really guard it either. Just apply pressure, put a hand up, and hope it doesnt go in.

Great call. That's become his bread and butter this season. I don't think it should count as a rebound though, but it's effective

Re: Best Players At Specific Skills
maybe not a skill persay but westbrook has the softest touch of any midrange jumpshot i've ever seen. the way the ball gently rolls over the front of the rim and off the glass is unreal.
paul on the break when he's ahead of a guy, using his body as a barricade. it's a douchey move for sure but i use it and it works wonders... and cp3 is the master. any chance this becomes an offensive foul in certain situations once guys start to abuse it?
just watching splitter tonight, he's got amazing instincts for when/where to set a screen and roll to the hoop. also re spurs, though i haven't really seen it tonight i've always been really impressed by manu's ability to split the double with a pass to his big in the middle of the key. most guys miss the opportunity and the lane closes whereas manu times it perfectly without without ever telegraphing the play
antawn jamison's name doesn't really belong in this thread but that dude has the quickest fking hands ever. he's like clint eastwood :
which pf has the best knockdown 18-20 footer in the league? bosh and kg are the two that come to mind immediately but then you got aldridge and lee. can't exactly leave dirk out. gasol, love, zbo all deserve mentions too.
and of course... kurt thomas

him too. though he seems to be better creating space off the dribble, occasional turn arounds, etc. i was more thinkin catch and shoot.

Although I'm going position specific, no other center has the handle the Jo Noah has. Remarkable talent when he grabs a rebound, and run an effective break by himself.

Noah is also the best big man high post passer, perimeter defender, offensive tip in guy and best yeller after contact dunks.

Marc and Pau Gasol are both in that category as well.
And Boozer is the best yeller after anything happens.
I would throw Westbrook in there for his hesitation dribble. Ever since he's started doing that he's been even more deadly off the dribble.
CP3 is probably the best in the league at keeping his dribble alive in traffic. He almost never has to pick the ball up. Only one I think comes close is Kyrie.
