Re: Quickest NBA players
Where's Kevin Martin? Can't believe that he wasn't mentioned. Quickness is one of Martin's strength. He is deceptively quick like CP3.

Re: Quickest NBA players
In terms of lateral quickness, Tayshaun can stay in front of basically anybody on d. And remember that time in the ECF when he blocked Reggie Miller's shot despite Reggie having almost a 1/2 court lead on him?
Not say Tay is actually quicker overall than someone like TJ or Parker, but for a guy who's 6'9", his lateral quickness is pretty ridiculous.

Re: Quickest NBA players
Wade can move pretty damn quick from one end of the floor to the other, he also probably has the best ball handling skills

Re: Quickest NBA players
Bayless is supposedly ultra quick
Funny thing about Aaron Brooks. I believe he was the fastest guy in Orlando last year, and Greg Freaking Oden was only something like .2 behind him.

Re: Quickest NBA players
^ Neither of them even ran their hardest..
As fast as TJ is, the 2003 camp measurements show that Dwyane actually beat him in 3/4 and lane agility.
Then again, there are many players who can run fast without the ball, like LeBron or even someone like Jamario Moon. But how often would you see them running their hardest from one end to the other without the ball in their hands?
With the ball, I'd go with Parker and Ford. Obviously everything is subjective.

Re: Quickest NBA players
There is a very long list of many players that are very quick. No one really know whoes the quickest. It should just be a lilttle asterick next to there name to signify one of top 25 speed NBA.
then focus on more important things like how much of a player they are.
