Tim Hardaway ran the point like the position owed him money — full sprint and full pressure every possession. As a rookie in Golden State he formed Run TMC with Chris Mullin and Mitch Richmond, one of the most entertaining offenses of its era, and his UTEP Two-Step crossover became a genuine weapon that froze defenders and, now and then, embarrassed them. His best years came in Miami under Pat Riley, where he paired with Alonzo Mourning to make the Heat a perennial threat and earned four of his five All-Star selections. A serious knee injury sapped some of his early burst, yet he reinvented himself as a deep-range shooter and crafty pick-and-roll maestro. The Hall of Fame call finally came in 2022, closing the loop on a career that changed how small guards attacked.
