This post stems from a conversation I was having with http://hubski.com/hub?id=lessismorelessismore on this post: https://hubski.com/pub?id=18118https://hubski.com/pub?id=18118
I have a few favorites from when I was a kid, Isiah Thomas, Joe Dumars, Vinnie Johnson (see a pattern here) but I decided to go non Detroit players and post a Magic Johnson video. Why? Because over 1/2 of the highlights from this video are of assists. Who else would have a highlight reel like that? He was a great team player, he made the others on his team better and that is commendable and rare these days. So my pick is Magic. Who is yours?

He definitely made his teammates better. The art of the "assist" isn't what it once was.
Go Jeremy Lin! :)
.... he and CWeb used to be pretty sweet.
I appreciate you keeping me informed on such things. Honestly, I probably would know nothing of Jeremy Lin if it weren't for your posts. I have a 1 year old daughter and I never get to watch sports center any more etc. Seriously.... thanks. I really appreciate you. I learn a lot from your posts that I otherwise would miss out on. - :-)
