However, the all-around three-point skill rated at 97 is entirely different from the mere 80+ three-point skill in the top arc area!
It's not just a matter of accuracy!
A high technical skill rating doesn't simply mean strength. For example, with shooting, a shooter rated at 95 for three-point shooting might not necessarily be better in training or open shot accuracy than a shooter rated at 90. Mental resilience and the ability to maintain shooting stability under pressure are also key factors to determine a shooter's strength.
Where is Nash's biggest strength?
Perhaps it's not his offensive organization awareness, but his shooting stability!
Though seemingly frail, he was selected for the All-NBA Team and All-Star substitutes before handcheck was eliminated. Indeed, Nash performed better after handchecks were removed, but before that, he was already one of the league's top six guards, relying on isolation play!
98 to 106, the gap narrowed to 8 points!
