Larry Bird was ****ing quick. And smart, and long.

Knowing where a ball will go doesn't help you steal it if you aren't quick enough to get there; and if you're not quick, you can't afford to gamble because you have no chance to recover.

Smarts alone gets you very few steals.

I'm curious what slow players you can think of that average 2 steals per game.
