The 90s Bulls are probably the closest thing to some of the modern teams with bigger primary ballhandlers. I would argue that Pippen did most of the things that are thought of as PG duties. With MJ and him they had two wing sized ballhandlers. The small guard in the lineup was spot up and defense only (Kerr, Paxson, Harper).
