Don't get me wrong, I like Kobe Bryant. However, in the matter of Nash vs. Bryant, as of this moment I would take Nash. In a year or two everything could change. There just isn't anyone in the league like Nash at all. Mcgrady,Wade,Lebron,Carter,Iverson are all lethal scoring options at SG. However, what pg is versatile and deadly as Nash? Kidd comes close, but he's nowhere near the shooter Nash is.
Maybe you misunderstood me. Do you think Bryant would excel in Phoenix when he takes 22-30 shots a game? He leads the league in shots attempted, and IIRC led the league last season as well. My Nuggets comment was that Iverson hasn't exactly worked as well as hoped in Denver, and they might have been better off with Miller. Adding Kobe in place of Nash is much the same thing as Iverson-Miller. The chemistry would be shot and there wouldn't be enough looks to go around, or an engine to make it all run.
