GOAT Off-Ball Scorers List

[StrongLurk]

Let's stick with post 1980 players, and list does NOT need to be in order. This list will also trend toward perimeter players since bigs are traditionally "off-ball"

I've got: Curry, Reggie Miller, Ray Allen, Klay Thompson, Bird off the top of my head. Maybe even a guy like Rip Hamilton or JJ Redick as honorable mentions?

Jordan

If we're talking about impact, Curry might be the GOAT off-ball.

Him or Jordan. Ditto with Bird.

Mid/Late 90s Glen Rice was very good too.

[Manny98]

Shawn Marion - he was GOAT at cutting to the basket

Ah yes, one of my favorite Hornets players ever. Good one.

Know someone who never comes up as an off ball scorer because all his highlights are ISO

[ralph_i_el]

Yes to AI

Also, getting an open drive from off-ball movement and a quick dribble counts as "off-ball" scoring IMO.

[superduper]

It's the obvious answer but Curry is GOAT or top 3 in this regard.

[LostCause]

Jordan
Curry
Reggie

I'm surprised no one has mentioned Karl Malone yet.

[Dr Hawk]

Top 3 are Curry, Jordan and Bird.

[MrFonzworth]

Who's the best off ball dribblers? What about off ball passers?

[90sgoat]

Considering Reggie Miller basically didn't play on ball at all and still managed to get 20-25ppg in the slow pace 90s, I'm going to go with him.

This thread is a good reminder to remember which players create their own shots and who use away-from-ball movement to create opportunities to be passed to at the right time
