Nash while solid never led his teams to a title. He had Dirk, he had Amare, he had Marion, he had plenty...but no rings. He is no doubt a helluva player but he should never be discussed as all time material.
A better question would in that collection how many took their teams to the finals or How many won a championship? those are something you earn with your play and not a votehe made all those players ALL STARS
riddle me this, in that collection how many MVP awards are their outside of Magic ?
Im thinking of Mark Price's prime from like 88-94 when he blew his knee out the 2nd time.
Price was the 2nd player in that 50-40-90 club after Larry Bird and did it twice.

Out of the 9 I posted 5 have championship and 3 took their team to the finals. Nash hasn't it done any of that. Nash was the reason why his team couldn't make it to the finals. His poor defense allowed below average pgs to score too much and help their team defeat Nash's teams. And to me the MVP is null and void if you can't even defeat teams that you are better thanIt's a team spot...Nash has the hardware as the best player in the NBA period. You discounting that because he doesn't have a championship is ridiculous. Is Karl Malone not an alltime great PF (at least top 5) because he does't have a championship?
how many players have yall listed to troll this thread don't have a championship?
Paul, Price, KJ, Stockton, Williams, etc etc. Everyone you're saying his better than Nash, does NOT have a championship nor a MVP - only Magic and Thomas, which I named in my top 5 and Cousy. So what the fukk are yall saying?
Now watch how you move and slide the bar, to keep Nash off a list where he surely belongs on top of the list slightly below Magic
So MVP = best player in the league now?It's a team spot...Nash has the hardware as the best player in the NBA period. You discounting that because he doesn't have a championship is ridiculous. Is Karl Malone not an alltime great PF (at least top 5) because he does't have a championship?

yeah, my comment is only about shooting. Nash was a better player than Price.That's Nash's CAREER average....17 years....nearly double that of Mark Price
I think Nash was better at getting into the lane, also.
But I can't really knock Price.I understand where you're coming from.Price is one of the top 5 shooters I've ever seen.Steve Kerr with actual pg skills
So we gonna ignore defense?
are you trolling the thread? No one outside of the And1 "urban" crowd would agree
So MVP = best player in the league now?
Nash wasn't even top 5 in both of the years he won it.
