Best Post Entry Passers Today 

Post#1 » by magicfan4life05 » Thu Feb 28, 2008 6:17 pm

Who do you think they are? It's tough watching the magic attempting to pass the ball into the post to Howard because they kinda suck at it. It's such an underrated part of the game because NOT anyone can do it. Hubie Brown always mentions the best angle for it to be done it "foul line extended" so where the horizontal line hits the 3 pt line.

One my fav back in the day was Rick aka the man Fox who was simply awesome at the post feed. This thread is dedicated to him. :clap:

I'll never forget in game 5 of the NBA finals against the sixers when they were closing the deal, he threw the lob intended for o'neal but it went in by itself...for 3 nonetheless!!

But don't be mistaken he did more than just pass, he also did some scoring too...

Someone not mentioned yet but Horry has made a living off of that(as well as hitting big shots) has he not? Of course he's been lucky enough to have 3 of the greatest big men in the history of the game to pass to but he's one of the better players in that situation IMO.
We watched the tragedy unfold. We did as we were told, we bought and sold. It was the greatest show on Earth...but then it was over.

I'm biased as a blazer fan. But I've never seen one of his post entry passes get picked off. And he's long enough and tall enough to get a clean pass over most defenders.
