I've been watching NBA games since about 1995 or 1996 and really can't come up with a good comparison player for Lance. Wade and the ability he formerly had to just dribble around, into, over, under, or through any defense to get what he wanted is probably the closest I can come up with too. I agree with you and see it as well but don't find it to really be a good comparison. While I don't have 30+ years of experience following the NBA like many out yonder do, I do have 15 or so and I've never seen a player with his skill set and talents. His dribble and flair reminds me of Jason Williams (Kings days), ability to crash the boards at his size like Wade, and be a one man fast break like LeBron. Let me be clear, I'm not comparing overall games or skill set as in not judging whom Lance is better or not as good as. Rather I'm comparing certain abilities other players have that Lance seems to possess as well. With that said, I hope and pray the Pacers can lock him up and do so without a financially terrible contract. That brings into question what Lance is worth and I for one have no idea.

that was one of the comments and i completely agree. stephenson has a pretty unique skill set. it's just difficult to gauge how much he should get paid. another issue is he is probably best at SG even though he can guard PG and is a great passer. so there is redundancy with derozan
