Obviously they're all so great, but to just pick one Ball Handler I'd say Morse.
(former handler) Vinnie Moore was right up in a close second...still very high on my all-time list...
If the question was "which Ball handler would you most like to jam with?" I'd certainly pick Lucious.
That would be a riot and a half.
Mr A Lee
I'd have to go with Luke next.

While I totally admit that all of the EB endorsed players are amazing, I don't listen to any their music. That kind of music just doesn't appeal to me. I know, I'm weird like that. My bass player played me a track by Liquid Tension Experiment today and I asked (jokingly), "When do the lyrics come in?". He responded and then realized that I knew they wouldn't.
I wish the players I love used EB. Maybe someday.
