Better Point Guard?

Jason Kidd vs Steve Nash

Both in their prime. Which for Nash is now and Kidd was a few years ago.

I say Kidd cuz he gets triple-doubles!

I think I will take the guy that is a walking triple double has been to two NBA championships and can play defense...

And possibly a Laker 🙂

I'm going with Kidd as well. His prime was also before the league made rules that benefit PGs. Plus what Lord Evo mentioned (minus the Laker thing).

Alright let's compare them!

Shooter: Steve
Passer: Jason
Lobb Passer: Jason
Rebounder: Jason
Team Leader: Steve
Defender: Jason
Handles: Steve
Scorer: Steve
Stamina: Jason

there dead even in the end. Feel free to add more categories!

I'm going with Nash, two MVPS, more effective offensively, plays at just a high level as a Kind in a better conference, and way tougher division. unless Kidd has a championship over Nash, I'm going with Steve.

Kidd was higher than Shaq on MVP votes in 2002 which to me is more effective than Nash who could barely beat a lesser Shaq in 2005.

Kidd should have won an MVP that year.

And Duncan was Higher than both Kidd and Shaq in 02, thats irrelivant, this is Kidd Vs. Nash, Not Shaq vs Kidd vs Nash.

I don't see how it is irrelevant. It shows that Kidd beat out a dominant Shaq while Nash barely beat out a lesser Shaq. Thats an undeniable point in Kidd's favor.

Hmm, maybe irrelevant was a poor choice of words, Kidd beating Shaq out was 5 years ago, Nash is beating out todays best presently, not to mention that Kidd had to be traded to the East to finally get MVP recongition, Nash has always stay put in the West where we all know the level of competetion is much higher.

Kobe got robbed......BOTH YEARS!!!

Both? Kobe wasn't deserving two years ago.

He's always deserving.

Nash deserved his first MVP.

But Kobe was right there.

What year are we talking here?

Two years ago.

Let's stay on topic please.

It was more by default rather than "deserving."

I beg the differ, he earned them both. If anything, he was more deserving the 2nd time.
