I am aware that the better ones are supposed to initiate the swing with shoulder rotation, but it seems many use the pull the knob que such as Bonds and Delgado, people such as Mr. Lau Jr believe that initiating with the shoulders slows down the swing and that the hands are faster. What are your guys thoughts

You have it backwards. If you accept the notion that the shoulder is working first, then the shoulder would be PUSHING the hands, knob, etc, not PULLING.
