    this guy is basically stating who he thinks looks fastest...nothing is based off any kind of measurement of speed i.e 40 yd dash, 100 meter dash...quickness is different then speed, the quicker a person is the faster they appear.

    and lol at rose being number 1

    I think Lebron deserves to be mentioned. People just don't realize how fast he is.

    Being a top receiver implies decent speed; but LeBron was also ENORMOUS in high school.

    Parker is 27.

    Entering his "prime"; probably as fast as he's ever been.

    It really depend on the definition. Is the writer talking about running speed or moving speed? I think in basketball, moving speed is more relevant than running speed.

    BTW, should Iverson still be on that list?

    rose is quick but not number 1. lebron maybe fast but not that high above all those other players. devin harris has the record end to end and he is not number 1? barbosa should be higher. it hard to tell who fast in basketball court it only 94ft long. i say they should just get all them to run the court and time them and see whos the fastest like an all star competition.
