The NBA won't be the same without him. Nash left a mark on the NBA that will remain for the ages. One of the all-time greats.
2x MVP
8x All-Star
3x All-NBA First Team
2x All-NBA Second Team
2x All-NBA Third Team
5x Assists leader
4x 50-40-90 club
F'real I cried a little bit when I first heard this. Nash was the first player I ever watched play, and is without a doubt my favorite player of all time. Nash and Stat is the greatest duo I have ever witnessed with my own eyes in a live game. Best Sun of ALL TIME.
***** I respect him even more for it. He got us like 10000 picks from the Lakers to only play around 70 games in 3 years.
He was 1% field goal percentage from averaging a 50/40/90 for his career.. Crazy. His last years on LAL don't do his stats justice. He was involved and mainly the leader in 5 of the 11 greatest offenses of all time.. Wow.
I always hear 50-40-90, but not too sure what it means?
50 fg% 40 3pt% 90 ft%
Steve Nash man, I have nothing but respect for him. He's one of the greatest to ever play
Damon Fitzpatrick He truly is
He's a guy who was not gifted with athletic abilities. He had the hardest work ethic I've seen in a while.
Stamina, durability, footwork. One of the best athletes
Ray Allen and Kobe too
Michael Santonastasio He meant jumping. That's what a lot of the time the lesser educated about basketball call jumping. They call it athleticism
Yip Man ray and kobe were both in dunk contestants and in there early years dunked on everyone. Nash hasnt dunked in the nba (for what i know i could be wrong) Nash also is not fast as hell or quick. just incredibly deceptive with perfect fundementals
Nash is very quick. You have to be quick and fast to get in the paint and nash did that consistently. He was like 6'1 so of course he wasn't going to be doing tomahawk dunks. Hell Chris Paul rarely dunks. But nash is very athletic.
Nash and Kidd spent half their careers replacing each other
Gary Thompson no Tf he didn't Nash did
Gary Thompson u dumb
Disappointed Knick's Fan That’s some what true, they both played for two of the same franchises and that was crazy. 🏀🏀🏀🏀
Shaggy mofo championship really puts Kidd over the hump but Nash defs was the more electrifying player who could turn nothing into something as a huge Steve Nash I sometimes wish he left way sooner though I love the suns I really wanted him to play for a good organization and win. The suns really didn’t take care of him that stint when Steve Kerr was the GM was really good but that was short lived
Truly an icon; Steve Nash was one of the first players that got me into watching/playing basketball, and it's sad to see him go but he's left a heck of a legacy.
He's 41 and is still good but he keeps getting hurt and everyone has to walk away eventually.
Amazing one True, true. Better to leave now with a good career and life to fall back on than to stay longer and hurt yourself really badly.
Yeah exactly he has tried to come back but keeps getting hurt so i guess he realized its time to move on.
I know right? He was my first basketball teacher's idol and she always got into watching his videos since I was a kid. He's probably the reason why I, not started, but keep playing basketball ever since then.
I swear its the hair that made him so good.
Steve Nash was a guy who wasn't the most athletic, not the most talented, but used his work ethic to make him who he is today. Much Love!
Greatest point guard of all time ...his passing ability can't be touched by no one !!!! We will miss you !!!
#13
This man made me love NBA... Im grow up with his legacy...
I'm gonna miss Nash, he's my favorite PG ever :'(
not rose? :P
ᵴimplified ツ FOH, Rose hasn't been consistent since his injury and still isn't. Time for Rose to go.
***** I was making a joke since he had his profile picture as derrick. just calm down.
This guy is an absolute legend and is one of my all time favorite player. You will be missed Nash! Hopefully one day you will come back and coach in the NBA.
The Suns should have one it in 07, fuck that rigged betting scandal.
Same with the Sacramento Kings in 2002 😐
It's more like fk the spurs for always cheating
megustabeberpills spurs don't cheat so go fuck yourself
won* just saying
Gary Thompson except it was. It was well known by the other owners that the league didn't like Robert sarver, the owner of the Suns, and because of that they didn't want the finals to end up in Phoenix, so the refs fixed games by making certain calls that let the other team win the game aka always the spurs or the lakers. In 2007 is was the spurs, and that BS suspension on amare and diaw
I think had he stayed in Dallas he would of won a championship with dirk that's just my opinion.
Yeah but if he stayed in Dallas, then Arizona wouldn't have any celebrities besides John McCain. So that wouldn't be good for Arizonans
+Jeremy Tun 😂😂😂
Jeremy Tun You had Charles Barkley didn't u?
he no choice they traded him
He was sadly traded
Who’s here after seeing Steve Nash announced as head coach of the Nets 💯
His basketball IQ is off the charts. You can find many players faster, bigger, stronger etc etc but none had his basketball smarts.
5:09 "And i fucked myself" That's what i heard
Haha I heard it too
Lol, I thought that's what he said too at first, but he really said "And I thought to myself".
It does sound like that.
Best Passer in NBA History... In my opinion.
My thoughts exactly
Jason williams
Tol 5, John Stockon ^^
Top 5*
***** Jason Williams wasnt that great. He was just flashy. If you looked at worst passes ever in the NBA I imagine Jason would have more than a few of them.
Nash was what inspired me to play basketball. He'll be missed for sure, and will always be one of my favorite basketball players. I can't wait to see all the crazy good videos we'll be getting in tribute to him though!
What an amazing career. We'll miss you steve nash, thank you for everything you brought to the game. The truest example of "hard work beats talent when talent fails to work hard." #POINTGOD
Hands down the greatest point guard and human being I've witnessed in my life. Nash was a true treat to watch because he did it all without supreme athleticism only skill and fundamentals. Those 7 second or less Sun's were really a team that had a huge impact on how the game is played today with pace and everything. Sad because at one point the suns lineup had Nash, Marion, Joe Johnson, and could have had either iggy or Deng but they didn't value picks at that time and practically gave them away. Nash and Amare will go down second only to Stockton and Malone as the best pick and roll duo, just really sad Nash is finally gone end of an era for sure.
Yea those were the days if it wasn't for the spurs... but I agree every thing u said
Dp97 is he the greatest to never have one a ring?
Brennan Dipippo debatable idk, he's up there with stockton, Malone, Barkley,
Dp97 and Iverson
VrQz Silent oh yea forgot him
Thank you Steve. You are the reason I became in love with the game itself.
One of the greatest passers of all time. My favourite player.. Did a lot for the game and Canada. Much respect, sad to see him go but he for sure will be in the hall of fame. He finished his career one assist above Mark Jackson for third all time.. Clutch, eh? Good luck to him in the future.
Dang this video gives me that nostalgic feeling, You get to watch Nash grow into a great player.
i remember that amazing Clutch performance from Nash and his house of mouse crew, come back from 3-1 deficit against Coby and his duck dynasty in 2006
Hall of Fame on deck!
One great video Steve Nash was a beast period...🏀🏀🏀🏀
Steve Nash is such a great guy and amazing inspiration. What a true athlete.
Growing up as a suns fan with season tickets during this it was an amazing thing to be apart of, even though we never got our championship being there for many of these great Steve Nash moments is always something I will remember. Thank You Nash!
Steve Nash got more mvp than Kobe... Don't start with the rings shit either cuz this has nothing to do with it.
One of Nash's MVP's belongs to Kobe though.
True Kobe should have 2 Mvps at least
Axls Music World well, Kobe's MVP belongs to Chris Paul
Axls Music World how come you have the right to say the mvp belongs to someone?
Yuri Marcolino Because I look at it objectively unlike the media who votes on that stuff with personal bias. Kobe was hated by the media not for his play but for who he was. Nash never had that problem. The fact of the matter is Kobe could have scored 80 points more than once if he had not sat out the entire fourth quarter for some of the games he played in 06. He also took a team full of bonafide scrubs to the playoffs in the west and almost beat the Suns in the first round. Kobe was definitely more valuable to the Lakers that year than Nash to the Suns.
i love videos like this. Steve Nash was a true hooper
Thanks Steve. Thanks for everything!!!
Well that first line. You did it capt.
I hope life treats you good, truly one of the best point guards to ever play the game.
truly inspirational
I'm so glad for many non-haters and fans or just someone who somewhat cares about nash #we'llmissNash
Amazing person first and amazing player. Massive respect. One of the best.
thanks for the memories and enjoy retirement steve, you're easily one of the most exciting players i've ever watched play basketball with those silky smooth passing moves. hall of fame player, and one of my favourite PGs of all time.
My favorite player of all time.
The way he approached the game was so unique, and his one of a kind vision on the court is why he's one of the best point guards in history.
That guy was soooo good , the NBA need one player like Nash, pure Talent.
Speechless
Hardest Worker & driven to success & changing the Game🙏🏾🏆☮️
I love this guys work ethic!
You should not be allowed on youtube, why are you uploading such videos??!!?
I loved watching Suns,Dallas and Spurs around 2005-2008 everytime they face eachother its gonna be a great game for sure.
My inspiration to play basketball. Not only top 3 PG of all time but also one of the best shooters of all time. A player like him doesn't come easy and we were lucky to watch him play and make this beautiful game even more beautiful. He'll be missed for sure, a pure point guard, especially with these scoring PG's in the league..
Great player,will miss him a lot,he left a large impact on the league.
Sad to see another legend leave the game, if your around my age almost all the players we grew up idolizing are gone, only ones left are kobe, tim Duncan, KG, Vince Carter, Dirk..I give them 3 years before they're gone too :-(
One of my favorite players, hard to see him go, but a man's gotta go when a man's gotta go. Couldn't have asked for a better career.
Beautiful video.
Definitely one of my favorite players to watch
Mavs played themselves... Big time
Beast.
As player and people;
Closest thing right now to Nash is Ricky Rubio. Hopefully Rubio has a great career in the next years.
KrisPY97 Except nash could shoot and rubio can't.
what about nash leadership?
yea Rubio needs to improve his athleticism and shooting in order to improve
Goran Dragic if he works on his passing.
Nash is one of the best shooters in the game ever. Rubio is one of the worst shooters in the game ever. If anything Rubio is the new Rondo.
Hard work and intelligence, hard work and intelligence, hard work and intelligence.
One of my top 5 favorite players of all time, but all I can say is finally. Hard to see him go on with the Lakers like that. Truly a blessing to the game, this guy.
One hell of a career.
Most intelligent pg I've seen. He's a great teacher he knows how to break it down for his teammates and understands where to go with the ball and when to shoot it at the right time. He made Dirk and Amare all stars and I think he's easily a top 3 pg of all time
Duncan and Kobe are the reason for the players like Steve nash,Allen Iverson,etc not winning a championship.
and shaq
I used to hate the Lakers and Spurs because Phoenix couldn't get past them lol
Allen win championships with Celtics and Heat...
Jon N I don't think Allen Iverson has ever won the A ChampionShip
If the suns roster didnt have alot of injuries in that season with the spurs they might have gone all the way
As an LA Lakers fan, hated trying to go through you in all those playoff series we've battled against you. However, in like any other chapter a new one opens and you begin a new one. Enjoy your life and take it easy. You've worked as hard as anybody in the NBA and you deserve what you have. You will be missed.
My favorite player, unselfish passing hero.
Truly one of the all-time greats.
He's my favorite player when i was a kid... now im 25, no other player can copy his play in this era.
This inspired me to make my school speech about him since I'm Canadian
Legend!
word
one word: class
Legends
I will always remember you Nash
I think what worked for Steve Nash is that he came into the League with a profound sense of his place-as far as his skill-set, and knew how hard it would take to break out against that era’s PG quarterbacks. And he made up for that with an unimpeachable work ethic. For an unheralded kid who grew up playing soccer, Nash’s longevity in the NBA-not to mention two League MVPs, is remarkable. As far as lineages go, you can trace that back to Cousy, Stockton.
This guy could be a beast in his prime just give him a few for years
One of the best PG and best player to ever play this game his passing ability was just unbelievable
Steve Nash and Vince Carter are the reason I and many other Canadians ars able to have such a great Basketball infrustruture.
Great pg
All time best free throw shooter.
He had perfect form, for sure.
He was one of the best
Steve Nash in his prime was one of my favorite players to watch. No one could pass like he could except Jason Kidd and when Steve Nash got hot it was over. One of the greatest point guards in NBA history
The Greatest
Man no one was like Nash during his a truly aw inspiring person and player and a person that will be remembered for revolutionising the assist and the meaning of pure shooting gonna miss ya mate (even if you did not play any defense :p)
He's gone from the NBA but his deeds will remain an eternal inspiration for us. It's sad but it's happy at the same time; "bittersweet", as he said himself. Thank you, Nash. Really.
Steve Nash was a heck of a guy. When the suns played the Wizards at Washington, the only way to get from the baseline seats to the sideline seats was to cross the corner of the court. Me and my father waited for the court to empty before we crossed, and before it emptied, Steve patted my dad on the back and said "go on ahead". Our seats were behind Steve on the bench, and after that Steve was talking to us the whole time he was sitting on the bench.
I know his teammates loved him. He got everyone involved. Some more than others, but ....
steve nash was a great leader , one of the best shouters of all time and of course one of the best passers of all time and his game was so much unselfish! he could win a ring because he had good teammates like nowitzki or amare but other teams were better,like the lakers.what ever people say steve nash will always be one of the greatest point guards of all time ,even though he doesn't have a ring . but he deserves it!!!
+Joe Kidd yeah agree but there are other players that didnt deserve a ring . norris cole deserved a ring? nash could lead his team
+Joe Kidd you are right , sorry if i did not make my point clear
very rare nash and dirk. Ball in paradise old head
Nash is a class act who will be missed. Enjoy your retirement and thanks for the memories.
Well Played Nash Well Played
Truly gonna be missed in the NBA Steve Nash
One of the best to play the game
Nice vid
RIP Steve Nash. You were so young, you will be missed :(
He's not dead...
Lol!
This guy!
WTF? He didn't die LMAO!!
Nash is the epitome of what a point guard should be. His play style shows that basketball is a team sport.
Back to back MVP
Steve Nash U da best
We'll miss you Steve Nash !
greatest Canadian basketball player ever
My favorite PG. Used to love watching him play. It's a shame his career ended the way it did.
Absolutely one of my top 3 players of all time, Dwyane Wade, Steve Nash and Goran Dragic
"DID YOU KNOW THAT 5 HOUR ENERGY TASTE IS NEW AND IMPROVED" NO NIGGA AND IDGAF!!!
Dr Naismith would be proud Steve; amazing mini documentary.
Nash was the reason i was interested in Basketball as a kid
Steve Nash is an example of what happens when you work hard and practice constantly. A guy who was not a good athlete, did not have great quickness, and was not very big. Steve Nash's talents were all things you learn, and can practice at getting better at: Shooting, dribbling, passing. You don't need to have great natural gifts at those skills but if you work hard at them every day you can make yourself a great player.
People might forget he had back disorder, which makes him in pain while sitting, if im not mistaken, and still able to play like that, its just great.
My favorite player, sad to see him retire from the NBA
I don't ever think there will be another player like him amazing vision passing and feel for the game not to mention he's one of the best shooters of all time
They didn't even run plays most of the time they just said Nash go.
