Steve Nash

I ran across Steve Nash's stats this week kind of by mistake. How's this for shooting: 53% from the floor, 43% from 3-pt, 94% from the line. I also checked his PER, which is ESPN's 'total average' for basketball. You basically take all the good, subtract all the bad, and adjust for minutes played and also the pace that your team typically plays at. Nash is ranked 10th in the league for PER, at 35 years of age. But, it's those shooting numbers that really impress me. That is some sweet shooting.

I am glad you mentioned this.
With his milestone in assist, I was going to get into his career.

He has been the best shooter for sometime.
