Steve Nash is among the greatest point guards that the NBA has ever seen. The 2-time MVP was a trailblazer in the early-2000s, showing how the rule changes have allowed the game to become much easier for small point guards with incredible amounts of skill. Nash used the additional space on the court to revolutionize point guard offense during his time with the Phoenix Suns.
Even if his first-ever head coaching stint with the Brooklyn Nets failed to have a happy ending, it doesn’t change the fact that Nash is among the most respected players of his generation. A video where Nash is showing how to attack the pick-and-roll using snake and cut-back moves highlights his mastery of the game.

Will Steve Nash Be A Coach In The NBA Again?
Steve Nash’s stock as a coach is pretty low right now. He had a rough 2 seasons in charge of the Brooklyn Nets and was fired early in the season after losing the locker room and being below .500. Nash is away from coaching right now but will soon look to come back.
Nash has been linked for an assistant coaching role with various teams like the Phoenix Suns, Dallas Mavericks, and the Golden State Warriors. He has also been heavily linked with the Charlotte Hornets, so it’ll be interesting to see if and when Nash decides to return to the bench as a coach.
