Jason Kidd vs Steve Nash

Started by Lord Evolution6 pages

I didn't like his attitude in last years playoff series against the Lakers.

Starting fights and shit with Kobe and Sasha....

Wtf are you talking about? That was Bell.

You don't remember this?

Couldn't find the video though....

I wouldn't exactly call that a fight.

This is a fight

C'mon, Nash is just about the last person who would pick a fight with anyone. C'mon this is Steve Nash we're talking about, not Ron Artest.

Well he was getting in peoples faces and shit and I wish Kobe would have decked him. I hate people who act all tough to someone because they know it will be broken up....

Steve Nash was acting all tough? 😆

You gotta be joking.

.....

Why would I be joking?

Because Steve Nash doesn't act tough, he may rarely let the emotions get the best of him, but thats about it. Anyone that isn't wearing blinder knows that.

LOL I am guessing you didn't see the games in last years playoffs. There is a distinct difference between acting tough and letting the emotions get the best of you....

Starting unnecessary shit with Sasha and Kobe and putting your hand up like you about to back slap somebody is acting tough, or in his case, trying to act tough.

1st off, this comes to mind crybaby baby

2nd, How many fist fights has he been in, now how many many has Kobe been in. If you watched the games you know that he wasn't acting like he was going to backslap Kobe. He was moving his arms in frustration from Kobe's fouls, that pic is misleading.

I wish I could find the video, but I do remember Nash running up to Kobe and talking shit to him chest to chest. I remember the announcers saying something along the lines of 'Now that Nash is the unspoken leader, he has to stick up for his teammates.'

Well it did happen from that pic, I remember what happened in that pic, The Suns were winning, and Kobe fouled Nash to stop the clock and Nash took exception to the foul. Kobe tryed to calm Nash down but when he touched him on his arm, Nash swung his arm away from him.

There's also a difference between talkin shit to act tough, and talkin shit to backup your teammates.

Oh shit wuTa, check this out... Marion goes out and the Suns lose to the lowly 76ers. Does this make Marion, MVP? No, it goes to show how it would be wise for the Suns to develop a bench and that it is not just if Nash goes out they lose. Subtracting a guy from a short rotation will always raise big time problems for a team.

Are you making judgements off of one game,It's one loss, keep your pants on. I never said it wouldn't be wise for Phoenix to deepen there bench, why do you think Detroit burned out last year.

Now, If Marion is out for a while, Jalen Rose should get some more PT, and step in his place, 10 bucks says the Suns don't lose a beat, and not struggle.

If people are able to make judgments off a simple 3 game span, I can make them after 1. It was the only game all year that Phoenix never held a lead. Plus, losing Marion would be vital considering that he is the only person that plays great D on a team that is lacking D overall. I don't think Rose could make up for that.

Amare can play some good D. It's not just they lose without Nash, its how they lose. The offense stuggled, and how do the Suns beat you, offense. Did the Suns offensely struggle without Marion, no, not really, the Sixers just beat them.

The key is that the Suns were beaten on the boards, and they attempted only 14 free throws. They may not have struggled on offense that much, but I think Marion is so versitile and such an important part of the rotation that when he's out, the Suns' man power diminishes by a lot.

Sorry to take this even further off topic but that is wrong. Nash drove and was fouled by Sasha, Sasha turned and pleaded (like he always does) to the refs and got in Nash's way. Nash shoved him aside and Kobe stepped in, thats when Kobe and Nash started jawing and that pic was taken.
That followed onto the next game when Kwame blocked Diaw and stood over him as Diaw hit the deck resulting in Kobe and Nash having words again: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Knzzondy398
To be honest i kinda liked all the confrontation, thats what the playoffs are about. Some of the best series i've seen have had that type of animosity, Lakers vs Celtics, Lakers vs Pistons, Bulls vs Knicks, Lakers vs Kings etc. The game has been made so soft now its good to see players go at every now and then especially in the playoffs.
