I think some of you are getting the impression that I'm trying to imply that Nash is a greater player than Kobe. Well, I'm not. My first post was an attempt to poke at p4p's statement, nothing more.Kobe's better at the low block, better at creating his own shot, he's a better mid range shooter, the better finisher, better rebounder, better defender(yeah thats skill too), better help defender
Nash is the better passer, better ball handler, long range shooter
Kobe has the better skillset. which is shown by Kobe's 5 Championship rings
And not just that Kobe should have won the MVP in the 05-06 season it was highway robbery.
Basically... F*** em lol
But while we're at it, lets not use championship rings as a barometer on who the better player is, it's just wrong on so many levels. Rings are not individual accomplishments, if they were MJ would have won one every year he was in the league (minus the wizard years). Kobe's first 3 rings were mainly attributed to Shaq being the most dominant force on the planet rather than Kobe being Kobe.
PS - Laker fans should thank Tim Donaghy for one of those rings. My kings should have won it back in 2002 if it weren't for 20+ ****ing foul shots in the 4th quarter.Comment

He averaged 35PPG for that whole season. He carried his team to playoffs. Nash had two All-Stars, Amare and Marion.Comment

Winning the scoring title isn't everything. MVP measures the players importance to his teams success that year, which is why Nash won it. The lakers barely snuck into the playoffs that year while the Suns were jousting at the top of a very competitive western conference. Same thing can be said about Dirk, although he wasn't as important as Nash to the suns that year, he was still a big reason why the Mavs finished 2nd in the west.
And so what if Nash had Amare and Marion? I could use reverse reasoning and say Amare and Marion wouldn't have been AS's that year if it weren't for Nash facilitating that offense.Comment
