Nash should not have won either MVP award. He is a laughable MVP and history will continue to show he didn't deserve the aware. The only reason he has two is because he won it in 2005 when he didn't deserve it, and because he improved all his numbers, he had to win it in 2006 even though again, he did not deserve it. You shouldn't be the MVP when you are a complete liability on one side of the court.

Anyone who doesn't love Steve Nash as a basketball fan is biased in some manner. While I agree, his 2 MVPs are questionable and other guys likely could have gotten it, he was insanely talented and the closest to a Stockton we have ever seen in a pure PG style.

Steve Nash and his team encouraged me to watch NBA games, and it had an impeccable impact on my childhood. I am glad to see that Nash is finally receiving recognition after all these years. The Suns team led by Nash was like an early version of Steph Curry's Golden State Warriors, but the only difference was that the Warriors were able to put together the missing pieces that were lacking in Nash's team.

Top 5 shooter all time with an almost career average of 50/40/90, every team he played with had the top offense in the league, revolutionized the game. Would have scored a lot more in today's offense (which he pioneered) and wishes he would have shot more in his time. Whenever they weren't playing well he could easily take over and score 40+ points in a game. Was a textbook MVP both years. The first year because he took them from 20 wins to 60 wins and the top offense in the league, while all metrics showed when he wasn't on the floor they sucked. The following year they lost their 2nd best player for the season in Amare Stoudemire and they still won over 50 games. Would have a ring too if the malice in the palace didn't happen and the league wasn't on edge to ban players who stood up to fight. For some reason people think Kobe deserved the 06-07 MVP because he simply chucked more to 35ppg on terrible efficiency, and his team barely made the playoffs with a .500 record. Madness.

Finally, someone who remembers the past clearly. There is a certain kind of fan who loves players like Kobe and doesn't respect people like Nash. I'm not going to bring race into this because I think it's cultural, not racial. Both Kobe and Steve were brilliant basketball minds, but the main difference between them was that Kobe was dominated by his ego. His pride prevented what could have been and even better career. You said it: Kobe would force up difficult shots, shooting the Lakers OUT of games as often as he carried the day. I know this well, I was a Lakers fan during Kobe's prime and I wanted to tear my hair out whenever Kobe decided he needed to "take over" a game. The fans love Kobe's "alpha" attitude and assholery, but don't appreciate a player like Nash who did whatever it took for his team to win. Yes, I know that Kobe was a top tier defender and Nash wasn't, and I'm not trying to claim Nash was a better player overall. I'm more talking about the attitude of a certain segment of the population that admires flashy moves and arrogance and doesn't appreciate self-discipline, humility, and self-awareness. These are the same reasons why there are all those idiots out there who think Lebron walks on water but resent Curry, despite (in my opinion) Curry achieving just as much as Lebron with a lot less god-given talent (and less whining, pouting, flopping, throwing coaches and teammates under the bus, self-aggrandizement, and lying)

I live in Phoenix, Steve will always have a place in all our hearts! Those days when Steve was playing are some of the best Suns games ever.

I've been on a Steve Nash high for the last month or so. He's one of my all-time favorite players and to have so many SEASONS shooting 50/40/90 is unreal. Just try to acheive that in a single game in the NBA, let alone for an entire season. Not to mention he's playing against defenders that have crazy athleticism and wingspans every night. It's insane to think about the mastery you have to have over the game to be able to do that at the highest level for so many years without being a supremely athletic like Jordan, or 6'9 like Magic.

Please note, I'm not disagreeing with your assessment of Steve Nash, but his desire to play team basketball is very likely why he shot 50/40...the 90 was all him. When you distribute as well as Nash does, it causes the defense to spread out to prevent other players from punishing you. Nash shot well because he often had more space as a result of his passing. Had he of increased his shooting frequency, it may have cost him shooting accuracy (more defensive pressure). I'm not saying it wouldn't be the right choice, but he may not have ended up being the 50/40/90 player you now know.

@@doublestrokeroll I wasn't suggesting he only shoot, but that assuming shooting more would automatically lead to greater statistical improvement might be naïve. Your own comment is indicative of what I was trying to imply, "most defenses basically knew he was a passer." If that is true, how did they defend him? They gave him more space and tried to fill passing lanes, because the probability he would punish them shooting was lower. If he became a volume shooter, I suspect defenses would have tightened up which would have hurt his FG%. I'm quite comfortable deducing that shooting more may have actually led to more assists or at least more efficient assists. Shooting more would have forced defenses to play him tighter, which would have created more space for passing. Ultimately, I think we agree. More shooting from Nash seems like it would have led to a greater optimization of his skill set. Just don't think we should get too silly about suggesting because he was 50/40/90 that shooting more was a foregone conclusion (i.e. he couldn't shoot too much) or that shooting more wouldn't have negatively impacted his 50/40/90 career stat line. If you tell me that averaging 20 pts per game and 10 assists on 44/38/90 is a better outcome, I wouldn't disagree with you. His actual career stats were 49/43/90 with 14 pts and and 8.5 assists per game. I simply think there would be some give to get (give up some fg% and get more pts and asts). Thanks for keeping it cordial.

Kobe is my Goat but Steeve Nash will always be my favorite player. I just love watching those 7 seconds or less suns offense, especially when they're going for the fast break and Nash with the ball. You just know you're about to see an electrifying highlight. I honestly believe that if he played in today's NBA, he could give Curry a run for his money with his sick handles and sharp shooting, plus he still that great passer and play maker too!

LOVED watching Steve growing up and always strived to shoot like him. I do think he's underrated especially if you're just looking at stats.

Nash was my guy in the mid 00s, the section about the Suns' playoff struggles was depressing to watch. Wanted so badly for them to win just one ring. Still one of my all time fave players though, he's the man

you could tell Nash knew the game of futbol well. you use feet in futbol which makes hard window passes that much more skilled in my opinion as we are creatures of our hands. his vision translated on the basketball court where he threaded needles all day which in my opinion made him one of best offensive pt guard passers ever

If Steve Nash played in today's NBA he would be a solid mix of CP3/Curry and would absolutely dominate None the less he revolutionised the NBA and the Suns 7 second offense was a pleasure to watch all those years

I love his freethrow routine

If you question Nash’s first MVP you weren’t watching. And if you question his second, you weren’t appreciating. His influence on the game in that era was the launching pad for modern, fast paced basketball.

It says something when he took down or lead his team in Santa Barbara to upset a top ranked team (UofA) !! Guys really underrated !!

in 04-05 season, the suns were killing the regular season and there was i think 4 games where nash needs to sit down for his injury and during that 4 games, the suns lost which even highlighted that Steve Nash is actually the main reason for their success. Also look at his playoff performances, he is always consistent and oftentimes using his scoring to help the team. Whenever he subs with Barbosa, the flow of offense changes with Nash and compared with Barbosa. The way he control the basketball is just unmatched

What a delight to watch play

Nash was an underdog, had athleticism, humility, and insane IQ. Him and J Will were my two bball idols - I formed my game around them.

I can't believe I've been alive long enough to see a video like this. Nash was hysterically good, whatever he did just fucking worked.

yes he was, a joy to watch, most efficient smartest player ever. deserved 2 time mvp, living thru it was a treat

Man him and Dirk was the one of my favorite duos. Really wish we would have kept him.

Talented Playmaker, amazing shooter and unselfish… nice guy too

this vid is fire

like phoenix suns

the 05-06 suns was the reason i started watching nba. and a long time suns fan.

Steve nash is one of the goats. Bout time people acknowledge it.

Soccer really focuses on spacing, positioning and passing and I think that was a good base and why Steve became such a great court general.

Steve Nash was more than his stats. Those Suns teams were magical to watch and he was the catalyst behind that magic. It wasn't just about skills but was about a mindset that he instilled in all the teammates he played with that no highlight reel can show, but rather you have to watch full games and a full season to see it. Teammates knew that if they ran to open space that the ball would get there even before they arrived at that open space. They knew that they could run into traffic but if there was a sliver of an opening - and that opening might only be seen from an angle in the 4th dimension - that they could put their hands into that spot and the ball will get their either in a straight line pass, some crazy bounce pass, or from a pass like a hall of fame quarterback dropping the ball into a garbage can. And players knew that when Nash was controlling the ball wreaking havoc on defenses scrambling to contain him or block shots that was the best time to penetrate towards the basket because he was creating openings and disorganizing the defense. Yes...he was an awesome shooter and passer but he elevated the players around him incredibly and far more than any stat line could show with the exception of the team points per game stat line. That was all him.

A lot of people never saw him he’s actually playing. It was amazing.

@nonstop you have to do one on the great wall yap ming! He would in the top 10 centers if injuries didn't hinder him.
