MASTER DRIBBLER

Chris Paul, "The Master Dribbler."

Diminutive guard Chris Paul of the New Orleans Hornets is among the best NBA point guards today. He considers dribbling as the main strength of his game. If someone wants to get the ire of the former Wake Forest standout, try to make a steal or force him to commit a turnover. But unfortunately, Paul very seldom allows it to happen. CP3 says he has been dribbling all his life and he takes pride in it, according to NBA.com.

“I pride myself on my ballhandling. I take it personally when a guy steals the ball from me or a referee calls a carry or double-dribble on me. I think that frustrates me just about more than anything. One thing I hate is turnovers. I'd rather get a missed field goal than a turnover. Since I was a little kid, if somebody tells me I can't do nothing else, I know, I know how to dribble that basketball.”
