Nash makes big shots. Rarely does he miss a "big shot" when it is presented to him. Hell, he made a ridiculous damn deep three in today's game that had no business going in.

I'd put Nash in my list of guys I'd want the ball in their hands at the end of the game.

I think this is the most underappreciated aspect of Nashs game. And I wrote a whole long post about once upon a time many moons ago. Its not that Nash makes the last second three to win a game by one ala Kobe. Its that he makes or sets up the shots that lead to all the point before that.

To make the shot only. I go with Kobe.

To make the shot OR put the ball in the right place at the right time. I go with Nash.

In fact when it comes down to it the only guy over Nash in the above category I can think of I would rather have is MJ.

Steve Nash has a 63% eFG during clutch situations. If that isn't a closer, I don't know what is.

Well,that's interesting topic actually.

Lebron and Kobe are more capable of making their own plays,they are more athletic and given that there'll be tight defense in clutch time,I'd prefer these 2.But probably you are saying it because Nash actually has showed in the past several times that he can be clutch player and maybe you compared Nash's percentages to them.

On the other hand,Kobe and Lebron take clutch shots much more than anyone,that definitely make them look like the best clutch players,but wanting the ball with courage is a sign of confidence as well.

I haven't seen clutch players like Jordan and Reggie Miller btw;)


How about these guys? You may have heard of them a time or two......
