Yes, I have but not as well as Tyrese. You and I have different definition of good ball handling. My definition of good handling is about breaking down defenses and generating offense for yourself or your teammates while minimizing turnovers. Who does this better than Haliburton?
Jamaal Tinsley opinion..

Agree. Haliburton is great. They are two players that are very hard to compare in my opinion. I think the fact that multiple nba greats are giving Tinsley props really highlights how special he was. He wasn’t a highly regarded nba player like Tyrese, and they are very different players.
That being said. From purely a ball handling perspective, Tinsley is one of the best ball handlers in college basketball history. Tyrese is great and will have way more recognition. But if social media was around when Tinsley played I think he would have way more recognition. He was truly special.
In the context of the video, and what most basketball players and coaches refer to as ball handling, Tinsley blows Haliburton out of the water. Haliburton is a unique ball handler in that he doesn't have a super tight handle, but he uses length and hesitation to keep defenders from taking it from him. So you can have your definition, just know that it isn't what most people are talking about in this discussion.
He knows what definition everyone is using. It's why he's changed the argument a couple times.
I don't watch a lot of NBA but if I combed through I'd probably find quite a few.
Either way you're not answering the other questions which tells me it's some sort of grudge or something.
And, not only is your definition different than me, but it would be different than a whole bunch of people especially since it started with discussing players that aren't Tyrese Haliburton.
I’m guessing the 99 in his user name means he graduated in 99. Maybe his girlfriend was a junior and had another year left. Tinsley started in the fall of 99 and, well, you do the math.
