Prime Kidd, hands down. Give him another superstar and you win multiple les.

Kidd. A better question is Grandpa Kidd or Grandpa Nash? Who do you take right now?
Prime wife beater in a landslide over prime child support ducker![]()
Nash at his best was a thing of beauty....the measuring stick for me was could they beat Kobe in his prime...and the answer to that is Nash sort of did but Kidd got roasted...So I gotta go with Nash...here's is what I remember of a prime Kidd...all day ere day:

Key word is Prime? Kobe losing to the Mavs was WAY WAY past his prime....plus it was Dirt's team not Kidd's ; try again son
New Jersey starting lineup in 2002:
Kidd, Kittles, Van Horn, RJ, Jason Collins
BTW beating the Kobe Lakers in 2006 and 2007 really isn't much of an accomplishment![]()
I think you have to take Kidd because of the superstar argument. At least Nash had a shot with some decent pieces around him.
So you saying that Kobe didn't have help those years? just checking Spur fan![]()
Forgot about Kenyon?
- Kenyon is nothing more than a decent role player who got paid thanks to Kidd making him look legit.
- Kidd lost to Kobe when Kobe had Shaq.
- Nash beat Kobe when Kobe had Kwame
even though I respect Kidd...I take Nash and here's why...
Nash has played his entire career in the Western Conference..and has proven and earned his mettle...He didn't get to take a season or two off by playing in the East...he's had it very hard his whole career dealing with the Lakers and Spurs dynasties every year. Whereas Kidd made it to the finals only after playing in the Leastern Conference where you could literally be 25 games under .500 and still be 1st seed in the East...that type of is just flat out wrong...because of this I have to lean Nash even though it's close
K-Mart was ing bad ass back then..you don't know basketball
And why did his numbers drop every year after signing with Denver?
Right... JKidd made the guy. KMart was nothing more than a role player on a contender, Kidd made him look like a legit #2 option.
The first reaction to me was "Kidd", a better two way, all-around player but then I remember that people used to called him _ason Kidd and than Nash is arguably the greatest shooter of all-time and I start having second thoughts.
I'd take a great passer, a great rebounder and a great defender over a great passer and shooter any day.
poor coaching, injuries, age, and playing with AI and Melo....that's it and that's all
Kidd, by far!
Pretty much this.
Jason Kidd easily had a better career than Nash because his prime lasted much longer. The only reason it's even a conversation between these two is because of how good Nash was in his prime from 2005-2007. Nash's scoring ability during that time and ability to completely takeover a game offensively is why I'd give the slight edge to prime Nash over prime Kidd. It's much easier to win with a PG who's a liability on defense than it is to win with a PG who defenses don't have to respect as a shooter, which defenses didn't do in Kidd's prime.
LOL such a badass he goes 3-23 in the most important game of his life while the guy he's guarding puts up 21, 20, 10, and 8.
