It’s a well known fact that your point guard should be the best ball handler on the floor. And in this department, Irving trumps Westbrook in all facets. Kyrie has been given the name “Uncle Drew” because of his Pepsi MAX campaign, which highlights his ability to devastate defenders with the crossover, spin move, pump fake, Shamgodd, and whatever other move the 22-year old feels like embarrassing his defenders with. On the contrary, Westbrook gets past his defenders on more athleticism than ball-handling ability. This speaks volumes to the longevity of both players and if Russell will be able to maintain his high level of play years down the road.
