“But Stephen Curry has a top five handle in the history of the game” - Jalen Rose puts Steph Curry in his all-time greatest ‘handles list’ over a few veteran All-Stars

Steph Curry of the Golden State Warriors is the greatest shooter in the history of the NBA, and some of his skills are overshadowed by it. One aspect of his game that people hardly ever recognize is his ballhandling, but Jalen Rose is one of the few to acknowledge it.

Steph Curry's greatness is far beyond measure. As the greatest shooter of all-time, it's hard to assess his greatness without taking into consideration the other things he does well on the floor. One of those things is his ballhandling ability that isn't as glorified as his shooting skills. In a guard-dominated league, ballhandling is a skill that can determine a player's reputation.

On Twitter, former NBA player Jalen Rose posted a video where he discussed his all-time ballhandlers list. Cracking Rose's top five, Curry beat other NBA greats such as Tim Hardaway and Pete Maravich.

"And while I pay homage to so many of the OGs, Tim Hardaway and Pistol Pete and Rod Strickland. It pains my heart to do a list without mentioning those guys," Rose said.

"Here's my number five, Wardell Stephen Curry... So many times we talk about his shooting, and rightfully so. But Stephen Curry has a top five handle in the history of the game."

Aside from Steph Curry's shooting, he's also great at controlling the ball on the court. Nowadays, he spends most of his time as an off-ball guard that people tend to forget how lethal Curry's handles are. His highlight reel may surprise other fans to see how well he confuses the defense with his ball handling skills.

Steph Curry could win his fifth ring before LeBron James

Los Angeles Lakers v Golden State Warriors

Entering the 2022-23 NBA season, the Golden State Warriors are looking more ready than the Los Angeles Lakers. In comparison, Steph Curry's team appears to be more prepared for the action than the Lakers.

Over the summer, the Warriors have addressed their issues. In free agency, they lost four players that played a significant role in their fourth title win. The Warriors lost Juan Tuscano-Anderson, Gary Payton II, Otto Porter Jr. and Nemanja Bjelica. As a solution, the Warriors signed Donte DiVincenzo and JaMychal Green to tackle their roster depth. This proved to be a great pickup by the front office.

The Lakers, on the other hand, haven't done anything significant. They failed to trade Russell Westbrook after a series of rumors stating the team is looking forward to shipping him out of Los Angeles. Additionally, they have collected a ton of guards that have perimeter inconsistencies. The team were fruitless in their quest to surround LeBron James and Anthony Davis with three-and-D guys. Clearly, the Lakers are prioritizing different things and it's obvious in their first three games this year.

Steph Curry and the Warriors have a chance at winning the Larry O'Brien trophy once more. With a front office that's ready to cater to the roster needs, the Warriors are built to take on bigger challenges this season. For the Lakers, they'll have to work collectively as an organization to get the team back into relevancy.
