    Everyone post their lists. I'll name a few:Allen Iverson- Damn man, this guy is around 30 years old and hasnt lost a beat. I saw some highlights from the PHI-DEN game on TNT. Iverson is penetrating the Denver defense at will. They simply cant stop him, and they're afraid to foul him because he might make an AND1. Dwyane Wade- He's so good that he doesnt even need to use a jumpshot. He is great at breaking the defense down with his nifty crossover dribbles (similar to AI) or behind-the-back moves. He's also very smart when he's trying to set up plays for his teamates. The defense looks so intimidated that they'll pay so much attention to him that he'll hit a pass to Shaq for the alley oop, Williams from the corner, or Haslem for the mid-range jumpshot. This kid is very poised when he plays his game, and he's only 24.

    I say Tony Parker - he has such a killer %, you rarely see him miss from inside.

    Corey Maggette should really be considered in this. He has the talent to always get to the freethrow line whenever he drives down the lane. He is also a great shooter from the line, so that really helps.

    Dwayne Wade without a doubbt. Every game of him I see he uses that move numerous times. He uses it the most, and is the most effective at it
