Barbosa plays most of the time without Nash, driving to the basket. Then when Nash comes he maybe gets 1 shot assisted by him. Most of his shots come from all the players moving the ball around.

If you want to prove Steve Nash as overrated, that's fine. However, all you do is come across as trying to prove Steve Nash as worhtless.We all saw the last 6 games against the Mavs, and even though Steve didn't have his best series, he did a ton for the Suns. Without Nash, the Suns don't win a game that series. Nash does help his teammates. I'll be the first to say he is overrated in that aspect, as Eddie House, Barbosa, and Diaw are great individual scorers, but he is still a major contribution of their offense.He gets them the ball in transition.He runs pick and rolls with them.He gets them the ball in the half-court.Steve Nash is great at getting his teammates involved, and does help Barboso alot. However, I still belive Barboso could be a 20 Point scorer elsewhere
I know Nash is important. Just look at my avatar. I'm just letting you know which players he helps and which players is doesen't really matter if he's there. I think we need to find a happy medium, hmmm....Nash is worthless-Nash is GodNash is a good player that helps the players get better. He isn't the only reason the Suns are good, but did a great job keeping us competitive with all those injuries. Eh?I'm just saying Barbosa spends a lot of his time without Nash and he's most effective when he drives to the basket he shoots like 1 assisted 3-pointer by Nash some games.I just think he's a little overrated and other Suns are getting no credit. Nash is perfect for D'Antoni's offense and I'm glad we have him.
