Well he's one of the very few players who got back-to-back MVP, no? On the other end, he never lead his team to the NBA finals..

Don't care if he "led his team to the NBA Finals." Name me one better all-around offensive PG in history (I'm talking court vision combined with shooting/scoring). Eh, I guess it's possible if you consider athleticism, but Nash is the best pass/shoot double threat in history, I think.

John Stockton would like to have a word with you ;).

I'm not saying Stockton was necessarily the better offensive PG. However, I think the difference between the two on the offensive end is very small. Nash is the better scorer, while Stockton was the better passer; but overall, they were at about the same strength.

Also, Magic Johnson ca. 1988-1991 averaged 20PPG and 12APG with a .35 3FG%, so he might have a word in that discussion, too.

Nash is the best offensive PG of our time though, that's for sure.

Stockton is great no doubt about that, but Nash never had the pleasure to have a guy like Karl Malone around to dish the ball to.

Magic Johnson is just in a different class, hes like top 5 of all time (not Kobe, like what Charles Barkley said on TNT LOL)

Outside Def.: proficient Handling:tremendous
Driving: wondrous Passing: marvelous
Inside Shot: prominent Inside Def.: mediocre
Rebounding: proficient Shot Blocking: mediocre
Stamina:prominent Free Throw: phenomenal

I think it'd be more like this:

JS:18 JR:16
OD:11 HD:18
DR:18 PA:20
IS:7 ID:3
RB:4 SB:2
ST:8 FT:15

From: Hadron

OD 11? Nash would be flattered I'm sure. Other than that I'd agree with all the stats, maybe JS 1 notch higher. But that OD would probably be like 7. Barely respectable. The free throws should be 20 as well.

None of those players were as good as passers and shooters as Nash. They were great, but Nash is on another level in that regard.

Russell Westbrook went for 38/15/9 in a 3OT win without Durant tonight, and the game didn't garner a single mention on the front page of ESPN.

Just some quick insight into why Westbrook isn't considered to be as good as Rose and Rondo.
