    In your minds, who are the smoothest players of all time. By smooth I mean guys who would go about the game calmly, making fluid like motions, and moving without any irky jerky type of movement.George GervinKareem Abdul JabbarJames WorthyWho else?

    Jordan is one of the smoothest players of all time. Everything he does seems like the perfect prototype player. His form, His dunking, His defense. All of it is textbook.

    George Gervin. His game is so silky smooth.

    I don't know if I'd put D Wade in this list. His game is more of a pound it in, hard rock style. He's a great player, but I wouldn't call him one of the smoothest players of all time.

    Again this might be biased but i haven't seen a sexier shot than kobe's fadeaway/turnaround. I just find his game smooth when he's making it though. Same with tmac.
