Phoenix Suns Since '68: Nash Early Years with KJ and Kidd

[@jknumber5138]

It's crazy that Nash returned to the Suns and won bacc to bacc MVP awards🏆🏆. Jason Kidd returned to Dallas a won a championship🏆💯

[@GoldVibranium]

Damn they might have had the best 3 PG's at 1 time

[@its4riel710]

They had so much fun together. And the chemistry was all professional.

[@BiGsImY]

Kidd, KJ and Nash on the same team? Unquestionably the best pg unit ever in basketball.

[@parists5455]

Wow! I don't think there were ever three point guards at the same time at the same team who were better than that trio, KJ, Kidd and Nash in that Suns roster! All so so good, but pardon me I always went with my all time favourite the most underrated superstar caliber player ever, the easy 20-10 KJ!

[@christophersuswal9544]

He was versatile man. So when they brought in J Kidd KJ started at the 2. Small ball 4 real, but he was so good he made it work

[@RazielXSR]

As a Suns fan KJ is still my favorite player of all time.

[@TheSands83]

Yeah n Kevin Johnson was the best of the 3 that year

[@Riles3152]

Wow arguably 2 of the top 5 PG's of all-time and a guy in Kevin Johnson who could have and would have been a top 10 all-time PG if he would have remained healthy. They were all at different stages of there career. Kidd was pretty much in his prime, KJ probably a little past his prime, (with a lot of that due to injury) and Nash who was just beginning his career and had yet to reach his prime.

[@tianxu6611]

I am Bulls fan. We beats many teams in playoff with many all star point guards. KJ gives Phil most headache.

[@benjaminjohnson9276]

Props Nash you learned from the best.

[@KidBakz]

What's funny during that time was that KJ was pissed off that they were signing younger guards making it look like they were replacing him. So KJ didn't come to practices saying he was sick as a protest

[@ambitioust.n.t7581]

Bring this series back

[@robertdunn7364]

USE TO WORK IN A DELI IN SCOTTSDALE . STEVE NASH AND REX CHAPMAN USE TO COME IN ALL THE TIME . NICE GUYS . STEVE NASH LOOKED LIKE A SCHOOL TEACHER ! HELL OF A BALL PLAYER !

[@infoguy1978]

these guys played with each other!!! Holy cow. i actually said to myself could you imagine if Kidd, K.J and Nash played together? they just missed each other. little did i know they did.

[@doubletake1238]

J Kidd is such a great elder statesman of the game. Earned respect as a rookie in college, rookie in the NBA, and now approaching Yoda status.

[@only1jamesp]

Wtf, I don’t remember those 3 guys on the same team. That’s amazing to see 3 y’all of fame all stars. I’m 38 , I had to google this, I see he was drafted by them, I originally knew Steve from Dallas then to the suns with joe Johnson, and amare .

[@H-Bomb_DaDonDaDa]

Great video. A backcourt of KJ, Kidd, and Nash coached by Ainge a two time championship Celtics guard seems unguardable or at least a pain in the ass. I would’ve hated to be tasked with chasing anyone of those guys around on D.

[@FuShengAlex]

Funny thing is Robert Horry in extremely brief stint first season in Phoenix "threw in the towel" so he could get away from all those guys lol.

[@dellis4320]

That was one helluva team 😎

[@paulwhite4855]

That's an All NBA Team! I would have had a superb time on this team! I could of learned so much from those 3 players.

[@its4riel710]

If Suns just had any one of these PGs now, smh... Rubio was finally a legit PG they've had in recent memory. But damn! Those 3 PGs in Kidd, KJ, and NASH were the most handsome and funnest thing I've seen in basketball. I fell in love with basketball during that team, because of that small ball. It was unique and entertaining, especially with McDyess.

[@MrIgnaxius]

Nash and Kidd could have been the real Backcourt 2000 for the suns.

[@charismatic9904]

Late 90s, Suns couldn't do more because they had to many PG's. This is a prime example. Then in 2000 with KJ, Kidd, Penny. These guys (just like nash, KJ, Kidd) need to handle the ball. Its like the knicks now with to many forwards.

[@FuShengAlex]

That's always been the Suns franchises Achilles heel. Over 50 years into existence their best interior defensive C has been Oliver Millers beluga self lol. The closest thing they've ever had to a dominant C to date has been Amar'e Stoudemire who was a PF

[@coreyrowe2598]

@@FuShengAlex it's a shame because Oliver Miller was a pretty solid player in Phoenix while he was in shape especially those first couple years.

[@elchoppa2346]

everyone be saying how did Nash win in 05 and 06 over Shaq well Shaq was averaging 23 and 10 on a solid Miami team while nash was averaging 16 and 11 on a 60 win suns team with no Amare Stoudamire.

[@Shinobi33]

It looks Nash was a little bigger and more muscular in his first years

[@grzegorzgrzegorz5588]

Nash, Kidd nad KJ. Now Booker nad Paul :)

This team would be a cool opinion on NBA 2k21👏😆...Btw does anybody notice Nash looks like David Bowie😂

Who was better Nash or Kidd

[@danjoshuasiason1727]

Steve Nash will always be BEHIND one of the greatest POINT GUARDS and GREATEST LEADER in NBA History... JASON "The Maestro"/"The Magician" KIDD (THE BEST of the best's bestest!)

[@timhoward5]

Jason Kidd is my 2ndT favorite pg of all time

[@hackrjack]

LMFAO. He will never be behind Kidd, who has nothing on him! Have you done lost your mind? 2 Time League MVP compared to Jason Kidd ROFL

[@jbsix]

Jason women beater kidd

[@mikelynch7271]

JBSIX ... Kidd NEVER beat a trick who didn’t require a beating !

[@absshire7984]

Its really close but John Stockton is a level up on both

[@infoguy1978]

why the heck didnt they keep them together???

[@luciolynx5443]

“Suns, since 68 and still no championship”

[@RazielXSR]

Let's just hope they are on the verge of turning it around despite current ownership.

[@luciolynx5443]

Joe Hogan lol, sure.

[@RazielXSR]

@@luciolynx5443 Yeah, unlikely. No doubt.

[@luciolynx5443]

Been a Suns fan for over 30 years and it’s sad to see what this owner has done to this organization, with his bad decisions and poor leadership. Colangelo never got us one but at least we had respectable teams.

[@RazielXSR]

@@luciolynx5443 Never over the hump, but two very memorable finals appearances, and many other fun seasons and playoff runs. Completely agree with your assessment in regards to Sarver vs Colangelo.

[@timhoward5]

My brother always thought Nash was good when he was a rookie. He thought he was the next Stockton. I thought he was crazy. Later on, a hof was born. And, why the fuck is Riley talking? Looks like he wanted Nash. Shouldn't trade all those draft picks

[@Jabawongky88]

anthony kiedis?

[@abbichips903]

Charles Barkley should of stayed a couple years more in Phoenix they might of had another run.

[@mikelynch7271]

The Suns always shit da bed in the Postseason

[@tybo_g37s]

Suns should have dumped KJ, but we did get Marion with his trade, so.....
