Jason Kidd vs Steve Nash

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.

Well I said before, there is a difference between talkin shit to act tough, and talkin shit to backup your teammates. Anyone who played the game knows the difference. And I am almost positive there was an incident last year where Kobe fouled Nash, and Nash took exception. Nash drove, Kobe intentionally fouled him to stop the clock, and Nash didnt like it. Maybe it didn't happen in that pic, but it I'm 90% certain it did happen. Nevertheless, leave it to Mr. Laker to know all the details from a pic leading into one game to another. I don't know how you can remember all that when one of your favorite hobbies is known for memory loss 😮‍💨

Just short term memory loss bro, just .............. what was i saying? 😮‍💨

How great the Pistons are. 😗

I havent lost that many brain cells. 😛

Uh oh, we're going to have to take Marion out of the MVP race Myth, early this week when he played with the Suns against the Pacers, the suns barely beat them, w/o him however, they beat them by 25. I can't wait until Amare gets hurt and we can judge the Suns off two more games 🙂

😉

I guess you missed my point then.

I knew that post was coming from Wuta as soon as I saw that the Suns won without Marion....😄

The point of extending there rotation, yea, I got it. My last post wasn't to be taken seriously, judging off of two games, and Marion for MVP were suppose to be the hints.

It'd be funny if Marion and Nash were both MVP contenders, and Marion got it. Nash would feel insecure. 😆

But it'll never happen.

Well, I had made two main points earlier, and it seems you got the other one. The one I was referring to was the part that Nash fans judged Nash on 3 or so games without him which is also not enough.

It was 6, and the suns struggled offensively in all 6 games. Judging a team off a 6 games where they struggle, is a little different than judging a team off of 2 games were they didn't struggle. Now, if you want to make the argument that is because they have a short bench go ahead, but If Dirk was out 6 games and the Mavs struggled for a week or two because of it, I would be hearing the same thing from Dirk fans.

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

I say Kidd cuz he gets triple-doubles!

Kidd.

Whos better? Depends what you want for your team. If you want a guard to run a high powered offense then you go with Nash. Difference between him and Kidd is his jumpshot, it's money. That's why the pick and roll is so hard to defend when you're up against the Suns. If you guard too close he'll drive by and find an open shooter. If you stay back he can knock the jumper. Only problem with Nash is that he's not very good as an overall defender. Kidd is better for a more well balanced team, he rebounds really well for a point guard and he is one of the best defenders at the point guard position. His jumpshot is really streaky however.
