There's no way Gary Payton or Steve Nash is higher then Jason Kidd. Magic Isaih ThomasOscarJohn StocktonJason Kidd Kid may not of one the MVP thropy like Nash did but that still doesn't mean anything talent wize. Kidd in his prime was a much better all around player if you ask me. I think Nash has been overrated ever since he got to the Suns.

He is loyal to the team, consistently healthey, very versatile, etc.Ron Artest- People need to start appreciating this guys play more. Yes he was a headache for the Pacers but the guy is arguably the best defender in the league and is also a 20 ppg threat.Kobe Bryant- People need to stop looking for things wrong with Kobe and need to start appreciating his game. Kobee is the best player in the world right now and one of the greatest players of all time. He's the best scorer we have seen since MJ and is also a very good perimeter defender. The guy proved last year he is unguardable and unstoppable and made history last season.</div>I appreciate paul peirce
And you believe the Suns fan. Nash is borderline top 10 right now. Kidd has definitely had the better career so far.

Are you seriously that stupid when it comes to basketball. How are you gonna call someone top 5 of all time based on two successful seasons. Plus Jkidd is extremely more versatile than Nash especially on defense. Nash isn't even top 10 all time yet. I usually don't try to insult members much but are yiu really that stupid? I would think it's obvious that by saying "other than Celtics fans no one seems to appreciate Pierce" that I don't literally mean nobody.

That was some great evidence you just used to backup your opinions. I now totally agree with you. You really are becoming a top poster here :HAHAHA: LMAO dude you are a joke. Watch some basketball for once especially especially games from the '80s and '90s. You have no idea what you are talking about and once again you just used no reasoning to backup an incredibly stupid opinion. Winning 2 MVPs does not make you a top 5 PG of all time. There is a lot more to being great other than MVPs, stats, etc. and you don't seem to get that. I can't blame you though since you obviously dn't even watch basketball. You really have nothing else to base your tiny amount of knowledge on when you post.

I wasn't aware that Steve Nash is the manager of the team. Mike D'Antoni is the one you can thank for that buddy. Since your probably to stupid to know, that is their head coach btw. Mike D'Antoni is the one who has them play this offense and Steve nash runs it. I have no idea why you would even think Steve Nash decides what style the team plays.

I love the guy but even you are being generous. I think he's just barely in the top 10 and if you take all the previous Suns point guards in their primes I only have him at #3. Nash has only had 2 really good season's so far.

I was just throwing that out there, If you watch Steve Nash play you will notice he seems to just throw the ball around without caution.

He's made out to be way more of a ballhog than he really is imo. 4.5 apg with no great offensive player to dish it out to on that team isn't that bad.

He takes 30 shots a night because he has to. Nobody else on that team besides Odom can get it going on the offensive end.

Lamar Odom was never a big threat on offense in Miami even when he was the main perosn in Miami, Smush Parker got better when he came to the Lakers so you can't say Kobe hurt him, Kwame Brown was never much of an offensive player at all in Washington, and Chris Mihm's ppg also went up since coming to LA and he was always just a 6 ppg scorer before LA. Once again horrible reasoning buddy.

You are putting Nash above Payton and Kidd.I still think that the Glove is better than Jason Kidd. Both were great defensively, even though Payton has a little edge. Jason Kidd was the better rebounder, but Payton was the better scorer, and could take over a game better than Kidd. Kidd has an edge now, since Payton is old.
