I think it's still Steve Nash.
Nash just led the NBA in assists again and yet his supporting cast is average. He is the best passer in the pick and roll. He has the best vision. He's the most creative. And he passes well with both hands almost equally whereas other greats only do with their right or strong hand.
BQ: These are the 2 best scorers in the NBA to me. Both have the best combo of scoring inside and out. I'm going to pick Dirk though because his post game is a bit more advanced. Dirk has great footwork, pump fakes, up and unders, spin moves, and one foot fade aways. Carmelo is more mobile on the perimeter and createst his shot off the dribble better. But Dirk shoots from the outside much better. And Dirk always shoots video game percantages 50/40/90 or around there, whereas Melo isn't as efficient and uses up more possessions to get the same amount of points.
BQ2: No. Duncan, Manu, and Parker can still take a team to the west finals or NBA finals. They need to trade RJ for a defensive stopper on the wing. And they need to some how get another bigman 7 footer who plays defense next to Duncan.

Nash is the best passer in NBA, i dont think i need to explain why but he does lead the league in assists in the past 6 years, he is also the leader in assists per turn over, and if you just watch him play you would know why he is the best
BQ: Dirk is apparently, even thou Carmelo averages more points per game, Dirk is the only player since Bird to be pushing 50% from the field, 40% from 3, and 90% from the FT, that is an extremely efficient scorer
BQ2: I think the Spurs should get a young big guy to help Duncan dominate the paint because he cant do it by himself anymore, but overall their team is in good shape to make another run at the best in the west for another 2 years

He reminds me of Magic, Nuff Said
BQ: Dirk Nowitki, NBA Playoffs 2011- Only explanation needed
BQ2: Yes, Absolutely. With such a great team not working, there must be something wrong. They need to start over.

Steve Nash. Nash averaged 11.4 assists in the regular season and averaged 16.4 assists per 48 minutes (both numbers leading the league in their respective categories). AND he did it playing with a bunch of washed up players (Grant Hill, Vince Carter, Jason Richardson, Hedo Turkoglu) and then Marcin Gortat, who was really good with Nash on the pick-and-rolls.
BQ: Anthony
BQ2: Not yet. I'd give it another season or two.

All time, Allen Iverson, and Steve Nash.
Now, Lebron James, and Chris Paul.
Because, when they pass, the ball goes fast, no one can't get the ball.
BQ.
Dirk Nowitzki.
BQ.
I like SA Spurs, but I don't think, they will rebuild the team, maybe they might get, young players.

Steve Nash he has not only court vision but court senses as well and those blind passes prove it
BQ Carmelo Anthony
BQ2 No they should just do some trades to give their roster a new look

Deron Williams. His court vision is amazing. He sees zones that nobody else can see which is why he was leading in assits last year on the Jazz with Boozer being is number 1 finisher.
Deron Williams is also the best PG. Passing correlated to overall PG status and opposed to scoring like Derrick Overrated Rose.
BQ: Carmelo ANthony, because that's all he does.
BQ2: Rebuild? Yes. This year really was their last chance.

Nash. no talent on his team yet still leads the league in assists.
BQ:tough one but I'll go with Dirk
BQ2:They will have to in a couple years when Duncan retires. He's declining.

Deron Williams
BQ: Dirk Nowitzki
BQ2: No, they have a great young core with Blair, Hill, Neal, Splitter and Parker who isn't even 30.
