Right now IMO it is definitely Gordon. He is leading the Bulls in scoring AND he is coming off the bench. That right there is pretty amazing. If he starts before the season ends then it will go to Barbosa.

So 65-70 points comes from the players doing something without Nash.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Nobody on the Suns roster creates shots for themselves, nobody at all.</div>I suppose Steve Nash doesn't create for himself? Jalen Rose, Kurt Thomas, Leandro Barbosa, Raja Bell, Shawn Marion, Amare, ect the list could go on. They all can create for themselves.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (BALLAHOLLIC? @ Jan 4 2007, 09:26 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Yes they do. They all did it before Steve Nash arrived and they still do it now.</div>do you remember how bad the suns were before Nash? They had 12 players who tried to create shots for themselves, none of them could, they were a horrible team.

What does the Suns record have to do with creating their own shots? Shawn Marion and Amare Stoudemire were still 20 ppg scorers without Nash. Seattle has a horrible record, I guess Ray Allen and Rashard Lewis can't create their own shots.

Marion and Stoudamire took enough shots to score 20. Ray and Rashard can but that's not the reason why their team is bad.
Shawn Marion's shots per game before Nash arrived: 16Shawn Marion's shots per game with Nash: 15Amare Stoudemires shots per game before Nash arrived: 16Amare Stoudemires shots per game with Nash: 11Next logically explanation?

They had no good PG the year before they got Nash. Of course having a true PG helps. It doesn't mean they can't create for themselves. Amare has a great combination of explosiveness and post moves. How are you gonna say he can't create for himself. That comment is just idiotic.

PacersFan has done it again. He completely got us off topic from 6th man of the year to can the Suns create shots for themselves, which is completely retarded because of course they can.

He was 21 years old and still getting better. He had no true PG to dish it down to him. Of course he's gonna ahve higher shot attempts. The next season he just broke out. Yes Nash was a part of it but it doesn't mean he was the only reason for it. Do you think if that you have a true PG like Nash who makes the plays that means the other players can't create for themselves or something? You make no sense at all. Liek Balla already said the most points combined Nash can account for is 33 of the players points. Whata bout the other 70 points? I mean god damn just watch the Suns and stop being and Steve Nash's dick.
