Steve Nash.

I mean, wow.

Maybe it took me and everyone and else the last 2-3 years to realize, but been able to watch him more on TV thus far. where the heck did this guy come from?

I mean, when did he vault into this stratosphere of greatness? I hate jumping on a media bandwagon or whatever ya wanna call it, and yeah his D isn't stellar, but he has some serious domination from the PG position on offense - pretty much everything.

Just to add to everything else, this guy looks pissed, in that good motivated sort of way.

Well this isn't the forum to do anything but hate on MVSteve but I'll try.

The beauty of what he brings is that he seems totally selfless - undersized, he may be the most important player on his team yet he is constantly supporting/high-fiving/yelling at his teammates. I think some of these giants - even the barely manageable ones like Amare and Shawn Marion - look on at him with wonderment and basically defer to him out of respect. This is no small deal.

Without looking at stats, Nash's best playoff season with the Suns was probably his first, although his regular season stats have been inversely positive since then. Not sure what to make out of that but he could be putting too much pressure on himself or wearing himself down. Or maybe that first season's roster - which still had JJ and Q and Steven Hunter - really was the best of the three. But he knows the clock is ticking and if they do make the WC finals I wouldn't want to face them and him after so many near misses.

oh save it for an HBO special you big hom-o. Nash is good because he sees the floor better than anyone and is a top 5 shooter in the league.

Re: Official NBA Season Thread
 

bulls got lucky imo. Detroit sorta choked. They had some great opportunities.

Love that wallace sat most (all?) of the fourth.

Re: Official NBA Season Thread
 

also, what's up with the southwest division? Wash 0-4. I had them winning it, just slightly over Orlando. It's looking the opposite thus far.

Also, semi-drunk at my parent's house on vacation. Brag or beat? Given league pass is still free for all, I'm saying brag. Go warriors.

Al- that avi is awesome.

Let's see how Dallas responds to half the team not being able to practice the last few days b/c of injury. Also, a good chance to see how Barea looks w/ Devin together in the starting lineup.
