The craziest thing about Steve Nash is that he almost had a 50/40/90 CAREER. His career shooting line is 49/42.8/90.4, which also places him above Steph Curry in terms of 3 point percentage. Also, as it is he's responsible for 4 of the 13 50/40/90 seasons in NBA history, but he was literally one missed free throw away in 06-07 from having that be 5 of 14. The man was an absolute machine

[haroldfloyd]

Nash was one of the rare superstars who didn’t shoot nearly enough, but that was his DNA: point guard.

[alexandrossimitzis]

Steve Nash! He's one of most exciting, fun to watch point guards I've ever seen!

[SoggySlopster]

He had steph curry like offense but people don’t know that because he didn’t shoot that much. But when he did he was the most efficient on the court shooting from everywhere

[toobasaurus]

Nash played basketball like soccer, run it fast and keep the D guessing where the scoring pass will come from. He made everyone on his team better and get their numbers.
The NBA was not ready for it.

[jeffspain]

I've never heard someone say Steve Nash wasn't a great PG. One of the greatest to ever play the game.

[wddub]

One of the few players I actually enjoyed watching shoot free throws. He had it down.

[johnmadison]

Nash didn't look to score, he was a playmaker first and foremost, but was a terrific ballhandler and dead-eye shooter. Passing was pretty good too. :P

[chibill]

Nobody ever mention how easy Nash can drive through whenever and where ever he likes on the court.. he's first step was super fast

I live in Canada, but visited Phoenix so my Dad got tickets to watch him live against the big 3 Heat in the 2011 season. I'm telling you TV doesn't do justice of just how crazy his passiong and vision was. Unlike a lot of guys who rack up high assists, he was the one shifting the defense, creating advantages and creating open shots for his team mates. He always seemed to get where he wanted and then would whip a bullet cross court through a tiny window that no one would have thought was open to a wide open teammate. He had like only 4 points that game, but 16 assists that night and Jared Dudley had like 32 points lmao because of Nash. The entire Heat defense completely shifted to guard him and he hardly even took a shot, that's how good he was.

When ESPN was showing the most efficient shooters from each spot on the court in the 2000s, Nash was the best for like 4 or 5 of them. Nash also led his team to the best offense in like 9 straight seasons or something crazy like that. Counting stats could never do justice to what impact he had on winning. He was possibly the best passers of all time, and perhaps the best all-around shooter (mid-range, 3 point and free throw) of all time outside of Curry.

That Steve Nash/Amare Stoudemire pick n roll is still the most devastating I've personally ever seen.I wasn't around for the Stockton/Malone duo.Amare had an automatic mid range jumper & was a great finisher around the rim.Of course you couldn't leave Nash open.Too bad Amare started having knee problems.They were a dynamic duo.That whole '05 Suns team was one of the most entertaining squads of the 2000's.I'd put them top 3 at least.

[randykubick]

nash looping under the basket was genius - it forced defenders to flip to other side of the guys they were guarding - which often was too late

[borissibor]

Steve Nash's passing on the pick & roll offense was legendary. Just like Stockton, Jackson and Kidd.

[AngryOldHoops]

I went to a Warriors / Phoenix game and just remember Nash pregame not miss a single shot he took. My buddy and I kept looking at each other wondering if we were really seeing it. Didn't miss once while we watched. He was unreal.

[sdot]

Nash’s brother Martin was a professional soccer player and was on the Canadian National team for a time. Family of athletes.

[滋榎本]

The duo of Nash and Amar'e is the most attractive and I love it.
His impact on Canadian basketball is immeasurable.
Without Nash and Carter, there wouldn't be so many Canadians in the NBA today.
Nash's Hall of Fame speech really moved me...
It's a shame that Nash didn't win a championship ring during his active career.

[Salberto]

Wow Steve and the 8 seconds or less Suns. So grateful to watchin‘ this 🎉🙏🏽

[luisalvarez]

Nash was my favorite player growing up I tried to mimick my game from him lol

[henning]

I would rather say “The system was great because of Steve Nash.”

[DefyMG]

One of the most underappreciated superstars of all time. A lot of people just go with what Shaq says and don't remember how good he was. He's my favorite PG of all time. I loved everything about his game. I wanted to pass like him, dribble like him, shoot like him, his free throw routine and form, hell even when I'm gaming I'm still to this day licking my fingers to get a better grip on the mouse just like he did before his free throws. Amazing player. I even miss the Nash era Suns jerseys.
