Nash do get too much hate on here just cause he a white boy
He deserved his MVP's
Mvp with zero rings says alot
Breh, I'm a MAVS fan and those Nash Mavericks teams were trash on defense.
Steve Nash didn't even try to play defense and used to always be winded in the playoffs.
Jason Terry was a better complement to Dirk than Steve Nash.

Slappin and clowning chumps for fun.
Man you sound crazy no it don’t!
Nobody saying Steve Nash the best player ever or best PG ever,he’d need rings for that kind of love,nobody tryna give him that,we just saying showing the man some respect because his resume is insane when you look at the shyt he accomplished and the number of people that accomplished what he did

He deserved those MVPs. Anyone who watched basketball then and weren’t stanning another MVP candidate knew.
how can a 9th ranked defense be trash....
I don't doubt you're a Mavericks fan and you may have watched all their games. But fans can have confirmation bias too and come to conclusions that aren't actually true.
The Mavericks were at their worst defensively when they sold out on offense by playing Dirk at center. You had Antoine Walker and Antawn Jamison as forwards in '04. These are crucial defensive positions being filled by sieves. That had more to do with the Mavericks being a bottom defense than Nash. When they paired Dirk with a defensive specialist at center they were much better. That's where Diop, Dampier, Chandler provided value.
Terry was a better compliment in the sense of allowing Dirk to have a greater role in the offense. The TEAM is better with Nash and DIrk together. Individually sure, Dirk is better with someone who doesn't need the ball as much.
taking their asses to the playoffs while having an all-time great offensive season and contributing more defensively than Nash

How many of y'all saw Nash on the Mavericks? Was he an all-time great then? And he was playing under Nellie. The architect of small ball. He was the same exact player in Phx, but played faster in D'Antoni's SSOL offense. Then when Terry Porter was the coach, had them playing that slower half court offense, the team struggled, and Nash was back to his Mav stats (like 16 & 8), and the numbers picked back up with Gentry bringing back a modified SSOL offense. D'Antoni offense turned Felton to a 20 & 9 PG, Duhon at like 12 & 7.
Kidd improved team W's when he arrived 3x (3 Js, Phx went from 27 W's to 53, Nets), and was never an MVP...including turning into a team's leading scorer, as a PG that couldn't score. John Stockton avg over 12 apg for like 8-9 seasons with a few seasons of 14apg (with 17ppg). To put it in perspective even more, Terry Porter has maybe 4-5 seasons of 16 + & 9, and is only a 2 time all-star. Fat Lever was close to a triple double for 4-5 years and is only a 2x All-Star. Rod Strickland never been an All-Star...KJ, Tim Hardaway...etc were 20+ & 10 PGs and aren't even considered for anything.
Nash is a great PG, a Top 10 PG (possibly Top 7 due to that Phx stretch), but other players did what he did, some did more things better and don't get the recognition he does. He also only excelled playing one style of ball.
If anything, the Suns that are the most disrespected are KJ & Matrix.

The Takeover
They lost to the eventual champs in the Conference Finals. How is that a knock on Nash?
