Nash was a point and a rebound shy of a 40 point triple double in a close out playoff game.
And people say Nash didn’t deserve those MVPs...
ThatGuyChaos 2005? Sure but 2006 is debatable between him, Kobe, and LeBron
Dirk deserved it both times.
Because MVP's are for regular season performance not the playoffs smh
On top of that he had that insanely clutch 3 to send it into OT
@@housesports000 he averaged 19 & 11 on 50/44/92 in ‘06, while leading the Phoenix Suns to the 2-seed (Cavs were 4th, Lakers were 7th). There was nothing debatable about it. He earned those MVPs
Steve Nash is the most underrated player in the history of the NBA. Its sad to see how his name only comes up when we talk about how Kobe's MVPS were robbed
He is fairly rated, Willis Reed or Bob Pettit are probably the most underrated.
He is very underrated skill wise though.
Lakers didn't even make the playoffs in 05 & in 06 Nash kicked kobe out in the first round 4-1, It's an individual award yes but the NBA takes ALL of that in consideration
O cara mereceu na época o mvp e pronto..kobe jogava sozinho naquele lakers ..e nash na época revolucionou a nba com o sun ..mais bonito de ver jogar
What about Elvin Hayes or John havlicheck
Nash's clutchness is underrated
@George Jungle nash/suns were robbed multiple times from 2005-2010 he should have at least one maybe 2
Nope! Very over rated. Many PG or SG today imitates steve nash. Take steph curry as an example.
@@davedave3619 I mean Steph Curry is the 2nd best PG in history lol
Put Steve Nash in the league rn and he's the 2nd best PG behind Steph
@George Jungle That’s because he had mike d antoni as head coach. His offense scheme is terrible. He ran kobe to ground when he coached the lakers that one season. He had Dwight and gasol and would have gasol sit at the 3 point line like wtf. That season was wasted should of kept mike brown.
@@tszfungshin5971 Nash would be way better than curry
Nash had killer instinct in him and closer mind set when he wanted but also just fun to watch him pass the ball
People forget that Nash rarely ever missed. It was always a surprise if his shot didn't go in. His shot selection was so good because he was a pass first point guard. He only took shots when he was pretty sure he was going to hit. Never forced anything.
True but back then I would always wonder why he wouldn’t shoot more. He deadass could’ve been the original curry. That pull up 3 in transition was $ but he would only do it when they were down in the 4th
Watching this game on NBA TV, its crazy how 2 title contenders were facing off in the second round.
Spurs, Mavs and Suns were contenders in the western conference that time..every year one semifinal was great.
In 2006 spurs mavs, in 2007 spurs suns again
Those days were beautiful
@@ManniLive them along with Lakers that wasn't winning was entertaining. From 2005-08. For anyone isn't a Lakers fan . Great competition
Welcome to the Western Conference
Back then the West was even more dominant than now.
Dirk was well within his right to get mad at Terry for letting Nash make that 3 to send it to OT. Dirk on the previous possession forced Nash to drive. Meanwhile Terry didn’t even pressure him beyond the 3 point line.
Yeah they were down 3. Neither of them are good defenders(including Dirk) but you at least have to try. In that situation, you play the three point line and don't care about anything else.
Lol Terry did the same thing against the heat in game 2 of the 2011 nba finals
Terry and Dampier are one of the reasons Dirk does not have multiple titles
I don’t blame him. That was lazy defense by Terry
@@younggod3906 true but dirk was playing like ass for a good chunk of the game and terry was forced to carry the offense what's ot came dirk chocked and went scoreless
“I always wanted to end my career being a Maverick” WOW! Nash will always be one of the greats. I remember watching this series being 12 years old. This one hurt as a Mavs fan but we got them the following year
Steve Nash. In my eyes, he played the game perfectly.
So smooth too! He was very fun to watch, straight legend
That's why he's a 2 time MVP!
Amazing thing with Dirk. He was a 7 footer running pick and roll... as the ball handler!!!
10:23 there you go Mark Cuban. I can now be at peace knowing that Nash wanted to be a Mav for life.
I still remember watching this game live. I wasn't even interested at first but my brothers and dad wanted to watch, I only came to people watch lol. But it was amazing. One of my most treasured memory. After that I never miss a single Mavs game. I wish I still can follow the games but life happened. But in my heart I'll always be an MFFL. 💙
That's the way it goes. Besides it's hard to follow an entire 82 game season.
I remember watching this game back when I was in 8th grade and playing basketball. Wanting to be just like Nash. Always had to stay up late to watch western conference games. I just remember going nuts over this game in my basement. My dad came downstairs yellin to quiet down. This was a great time to watch NBA basketball. Everyone always talks about the 90s but all of a sudden this decade is feeling nostalgic and I’m realizing how fun some of these teams were. Especially these suns teams. Watch the end where Nash post game interview he takes the high road. The guy was clearly trying to egg him on to bash Dallas for trading him. But Nash class act. The suns should have won it all in 2007. But the refs screwed them when they played the spurs. Shameful. Oh well. At least nowadays we know who will win the championship before the season even begins. How exciting !!!! !!!
Nash the assist wizard and dirk the one legged fadeaway sniper
Dam I grew up watching that phx suns Nash basketball. Would always go to their games and watch Nash wreck cheeks. I miss that whole era of nba honestly. NBA is good but not what it was back then
The Spurs, the Mavericks, the Pistons and the Suns are the 4 best teams of mid-2000.
Late-2000s added more contenders, Celtics big 3, Kobe/Pau's Lakers, Melo's Nuggets, Lebron's Cavs, Dwight's Magic, T-Mac/Yao's Roclets, all have legitimate chance at the championship. A lot of tight series in the playoffs and you never know who will win, best age of basketball.
CS Y no doubt. 2003-2007 was probably my favorite era of NBA I’ve watched.
No love for the 06 champs?
You forgot vince carter
This game is the Beginning of the New Era of NBA Playoffs.
2022 & we finally get another Mavs & Suns series!!
Nash was scary good offensively Dallas didn’t use him right
100% true. Nelly used him as a scoring guard, often playing him at shooting guard next to Van Exel and running isolation plays for him.
Nash had a year where he averaged 18 points and 8 assist with Dallas
TP3HQ Yes but compared to 19 and 12 in Phoenix, that's somewhat of a frop off. Aldo, there are things the numbers can't show you. He was just so much more effective as he was used in Phoenix. He needed to dominate the ball and completely control the offense to reach his full potential. That likely never would have happened in Dallas with Dirk.
Remember, Nash became MVP after the rules about hand checking changed.
So while you may be right about Dallas, he couldn't be MVP level before the rules changed. ❤️
I disagree. I actually think Nash would have been better if he looked to score more. His shooting was insanely good.
Miss bill walton commentating. Most entertaining play by play guy ever
Yup 😂
These were the days! Whenever Phoenix would collide with Dallas and the spurs and Kobe it was always a classic literally everytime!
I still look forward to my Idol Steve Nash until now.
Let's get N A S H T Y
This was my first NBA livestream on TV and Steve was my first idol in NBA because of this game.
OMG! Game almost 20 years old & still giving me anxiety!
Dont say the Lords name in vain
@@davidrufus-giwa3607 goofass
The best intense game ever, . . . You cant even see like this in the NBA at the present, . . .
Damn MVP Nash was just so good. Started cold but ended the game on fire.
love them both
Growing in AZ this is my all favorite team. They made watching basketball a fun ass family event
That Dirk jumper is butter
Point God thy name is Steve Nash🔥😬👌
Snapper Jones and Bill Walton commentary: Classic👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿❤️❤️❤️❤️
Nash if fkn underrated man
Dampier wasn't totally useless back then
Cool seeing the modern day version or these teams battling in the playoffs.
7:27 Jason Terry’s defense lol
apson1 yeah they showed the game on nba TV & Dirk was on his ass after that lmao
dirk should kicked his ass, useless bitch.
Dirk played with such a fire inside and it was so noticeable!!!💪🏾
Both HOF and 🐐
My man, steve!!
Where do they get this beautiful quality
The story line of this game is so underrated. Best friends are dueling. Both are MVP caliber and in their primes. They were former teammates. Cuban getting burned for not giving Nash the bag he deserved.
🐐🐐
Nash was great this game. Great dagger 3s
Nash&Kidd in passing dept.,A.i in crossover&anklebreakers,drose&j.crwford
Steve Nash is one leyend
Dirk was heated at that Stackhouse 3 attempt
Goat 🐐
Best time to be a Suns fan were in the 2000's.. now they're one of the most stupidest franchises in the League lmao.
Bearboy193 they might be solid this year
@@MrDweeny But they won't lmao, letting IT4 go to Boston in 2015 still haunts them to this day. Could you imagine still having IT4 and Booker on the team still?
Right
Bearboy193 the 2000s suns did some stupid shit though like trading players for money and letting good pieces walk though
IT and booker wouldn't do well I prefer dragic
17 yrs later and the sun's blow a 2-0 lead in the second round. and getting blown out by 40 in game 7. Luka absolutely torched the sun's. And Devin booger and cliff Paul were horrendous!.
sums up jerry stackhouse tries to be the man and fails
Year after we got them back!
Wow nash passing is elite it's like he knows they're open before they even know
That dallas uniform is so cool
Watched this live and still have the news paper since it made the front page. Being a Mav fan and watching Cuban pay Dampier $80 million made me sick. It was great to watch Nash come back and send his former team home.
This is crazy I swear i remember the suns losing this game they never made it to the finals since Barkley was leading the team
@2:19 the real sniper.🎯⛳
shawn marion one of the most underrated players of all time
steve nash back then is the best point guard if he is just not see himself as a scorer he rather pass and share most the time
3:28 this can resume these two icons
Can you get the highlights from their 2 OT game in Dallas? 3/14/2007
Back when the west was really the wild Wild West
It wasn’t top heavy like it’s been in recent years & no super teams
that suns team would have won at least one championship if it wasn't for the spurs
Yeah and the fact that refs rigged that 2007 suns spurs series.
and Lakers
Jerry freaking Stackhouse lol...... WTF HAHAHA
Never seen Nowitzki run that fast in forever.. lol
Can you make jason kidd vs steve nash all suns highlights
3:00 watch nash and terry on the break
🤣🤣🤣 Dirk was so mad in OT he cussed out the refs while the game was stopped.
Nash was normally a pass first, but if he was in today's era he'd give Stephen Curry a run for his money for sure!
Yo Nash is crazy and Marion dropped Terry 😂😂
Wow I’m watching this rite now they keep saying Steve Nash is off
where's the 2006 dallas vs phoenix?
5:56 luka dribbling the ball
We need Russell vs Wilt. MJ vs MJ, Bird vs Magic
Mark Cuban regretting at the time " i should paid nash more"
no way dirk doesn’t make the game winner if stackhouse passes him the ball
If only Cuban had wanted to pay Nash to stay.... 2006 champs no doubt.
dallas should've kept these two, signed Love and manu then maybe peja as well
Had Mark Cuban kept him they would’ve EASILY had at least 1 if not more rings together. So we know about 2011 but they could’ve won in 2006 too, and rivaled The Lakers and Spurs every year in between for dominance in the west. And in 2006 the Mavs won 67 games! While the Suns won 61 so if Nash stayed in Dallas is it so crazy to think that the Mavs could’ve beat the bulls record 72-10? Is it SO crazy to believe that. These two were combined 3x MVPs in 05, 06, 07. and Nash helped the Suns from 29 wins in 2004 to 62 in 2005 so to me there is a case
I wish Nowitzki-Nash-Finley stayed as Mavs, we could have won a Championship.
people who knock nash down a peg for not winning a chip, and not being able to clutch a WCF need to remember that he had extremely bad luck, was playing duncan spurs, kobe lakers, and dirk mavs every year (who usually ended up winning it all, so WCF was pretty much a final often times), but most importantly that his numbers WENT UP in the playoffs and he was able to close out games like this one, and answer the bell
Mike "no D" Antoni is mostly to blame, always getting outcoached.
The time when the Western Conference dominated the NBA.
in this era the nba no longer had olajuwon west bird johnson jordan robertson jabbar chamberlain + russell
Dirk at 8:40 😂😂😂
怎么感觉司机打马良这么轻松
thats why dirk deserve huge respect, bcuz he care trash ass mavs teams his whole career.
Dirk said I can’t get a fucking call
Lol wow steve nash was clutch
8 years nash dirk side by side at dallas
Was Dirk mad at Terry for his D on steve nash? or not getting back for offense
imagine if Nash stayed in Dallas....
worst mistake Cuban made was trading Nash..Glad we got kidd back for the championship,..but that was dumb
I freakin hated Dallas and San Antonio as a kid!
What’s up with the sound of the rim? It rattles like it’s loose… You would think in an NBA playoff game they can at least tighten the screws… Just bizarre 🤔🤷♂️
9:10😂😂
Can people please stop saying Kobe shoulda won MVP this year? His team didn't even make the playoffs and Nash led the league in assists steal 3 point shooting and free throw shooting. While on the best team in the league.
i think people usually say this about the 06 season, not this season (05)
@@AB-rq4ub Granted Nash supposedly did not win that award but neither do Kobe should.
I understand the 3rd best player of that Lakers roster is Smush Parker and Kobe led the league in scoring (35.4 pts), however, they finished just 6th in the Western Conference.
What did he do better than Lebron that season? Cavaliers roster is not massively better than the Lakers roster and they were led by a 3rd-year, 20 year-old kid, averaging 31.4 pts, 7 rebs, 6.6 ast at 48% FG pctg.
Nowitzki should've won the MVP that season and became back-to-back winner in 06-07.

“ But Nash Is So Hot Right Now!! “
nash won 2 season mvp's in 05 + 06
Nash deserved to be MVP. Yes, his defense was pretty much non-existent; but he was an excellent and highly efficient shooter, one of the best and most creative passers of all time, could come up in the clutch and unlike Shaq & Kobe he mad his teammates better. While those 2 let their egos separate them and stop them from being the greatest duo of all time, Nash was making nominal players look decent and bringing Don Nelson's Run-n-Gun game back!
He didn't deserve it in 05-06. Kobe had a far worse team and he made them look decent. If there was a G league ball then they would have been sent down. Kobe and Shaq has nothing to do with these seasons so I don't know why you brought it up.
@@vaudou_ Nash team was trash in 2006 too
@@cody0287 No it wasn't. You have a bad memory.
@@vaudou_ Nash had Boris diaw, raja bell, marion take away Nash and that's a lottery team
@@cody0287 And Barbosa and Amare for injured. The only reason why they would have been a lottery team is that D'Antoni's offense is completely predicated on a certain type of guard so that can't function without Nash. It's not because the team itself was bad.
nowitzki led the mavs to the finals in 06
