As to your point, Tony Parker led at least three playoff teams in assists while winning championships. I would like you to describe a pass of his if indeed you remember One. All I can think of all the Spurs going close to coast and him possibly being one of the guys passing it back-and-forth with Manu. But I can identify Manu in my mind’s eye in those memories. The other guy is fuzzy. Might be Tony might be anyone.
He didn't make flashy passes but he dished the rock. I cant remember tim Duncan with a famous assist either.
Jamal Crawford seemed like he never pass once he starts doing crossover dance its a wrap.

I think Kobe might have the most rings as assist leader. Maybe only Magic has him tied.
I think only Magic, Jordan and Cousy comes to mind as candidates with at least 5 rings and leading team in assists. Cant think of anyone else.

Now I kind of want to know the inverse of this question. Most famous passes ever. Birds steal and dish in that playoff game, Kobe Shaq lob, or J-wills behind the back elbow bump dime.

You really think Jordan led the Bulls in assists for 5 of their titles? That's definitely wrong.

Titles are overrated
Re: How many stars do you not remember throwing a single pass?
Yea that pass instantly came to mind when I saw his name. Reggie had some decent drop offs on the break too.

Depends on what exact criteria we're talking about. Are we talking regular season totals and averages with the Bulls? Playoffs only? Championship years only? There were several times Jordan led the Bulls in assists during their championship runs in average and totals.
Jordan averaged more assists per game in his 13 years with the Bulls than Pippen did in his 12 in the regular season. (5.4 vs 5.3)
Jordan averaged more assists per game in the playoffs with the Bulls than Pippen did (5.7 vs 5.0)
...if you look at the totals and averages it's closer than you think. It's not a foregone conclusion. Many people forget Jordan averaged over 8 assists per game twice in his career in the playoffs.

I do not believe I have a Klay Thompson pass in my files.
I think Klay Thompson is some sort of autistic savant. Where he’s next level gifted in a few areas and then just drop dead retarded at many other things.
It’s why he’s such a unique player who doesn’t really have many or any comparisons to other players.
He is probably the best player of guys who are flat out complete non passers, yet can have a hugely effective role on championship caliber teams, and even GOAT caliber teams.
What makes it more interesting is Steve Kerr is obsessed with passing. If you can’t pass you won’t get minutes if Steve Kerr is your head coach. Unless your Klay. (And Steve Kerr isn’t no basketball dummy)
So if you can convince a basketball genius like Kerr to play you even when your game totally flys in the face of everything he believes in…You are different to say the least.
Klay is an enigma.

Re: How many stars do you not remember throwing a single pass?
Dwight Howard, Kevin Willis, Dale Ellis, Allan Houston, Lindsey Hunter. I know the last two aren’t stars but I don’t recall those two ever passing. One just shot the ball the other just…shot the ball. Go figure.
