My pick would be Negreanu.
I forget which celebrity poker show it was, but he was the "red card". Where if the celeb needed help with a hand, he would come out and coach them. What I saw when he was called upon was him coaching the finer details of the hand in a few seconds. He really seemed to be able communicate what you need to be thinking while you play a hand. That's one reason.
The second is, of course, his ability to put people on hands. Definitely a must when you want to make it big in Hold'em.
