A family member (who doesn't keep up with bball). Was asking me about old players like Duncan, Shaq, etc. I told him that Nash retires a couple years ago. Had no idea he was playing.

Take it easy
I hated Nash off the court, but you guys are crazy if you call him overrated, minus the two MVP awards.
Lol. Yeah...minus those. OJ was really a good dude. Other than the double murder thing.
That being said, I think the Spurs would have at least an extra ring or two if they had him instead of Parker.
Only three all-team nba, but two mvps...Shows how bad the nba was/is
Nash was probably my favorite non-spur. He was making "beautiful basketball" long before the Spurs. Too bad Cuban tossed him and he never rang with Dirk
He hasn't played in such a long time the retirement is kind of anti-climatic. Sure played well in his day. The Horry hip-check drama will never grow old. Him leaving Dallas is very much like Harden leaving OKC. All great moves for the Spurs!
lol the Rique s are so predictable
Enrique 4, Nash 0
![]()
TP: 1 Nash: 0 appearances
One of the 2 best PGs of this generation along with Paul, tbh..
Crazy how much the narrative could have changed if Amare and Diaw stay on the bench..
Keep spinning it but
boiled down::::
MVParker 4 > Nash 0
Yeah sure and Enrique was the undisputed best player on the Spurs during those 4 rings just like Nash was during his Suns days.![]()
Steve Kerr 5 > Stockton 4

Lol yep just because you were fortunate enough to play with greats like Duncan, Pop, and Manu doesn't mean you are better than ringless players like Nash and Paul.
Does anyone really need to be reminded how horrible Nash was on defense? I mean, it was worse than Marco's d.
hilarious
Great player. Even without Shaq and Lebron's MVP trophies, he's probably a Hall of famer. With them, it's a no-brainer. There's no way to avoid calling him overrated when he received two MVPs that he didn't deserve.
Best since Stockton? Don't think so, but I suppose an argument can be made. Difficult for me to put a guy who played zero defense in a category like that.
Revolutionized basketball? Not in any way that I can see. Great passer on a team with no backups, grinding him down with minutes and padding his offensive stats.
Sky-is-blue news flash: McDonald is an idiot.
Yeah I remember Tony torching Nash every time they played. Suns never went to the finals because Nash was their best player.
Dude, Nash played with Amare, Marion, and Joe Johnson and Dirk with Dallas. He played with plenty of All Stars. Nash was a great offensive player, but overrated as an all star. And Parker is underrated on the Spurs fan site, so it goes without saying he's been underrated in the national media.
Don't tell me Stat/Marion/JJ are on the level of Tim, Pop, and Manu.Come on, now. Parker was lucky he was drafted by the Spurs. I'm not saying Tony was always a scrub, but people saying he's better than Nash or Paul in the playoffs just because he happens to be on a winning team is ridiculous. The stats show that Tony has been underwhelming most of his playoff career. If the Spurs had Nash or Paul instead of Parker, chances are they would still have 5 rings.
Especially when Enrique is an even bigger choker than Nash or Paul, who haven't exactly been playoff warriors themselves.
