		<description>The prime years category is an arbitrary cut off. Sure, most players excel during their prime years and decline after, but why would you penalize someone for performing at their highest level outside their allegedly prime years? If you take an arbitrary set of years Nash probably performed better between 29 and 35  or 30 and 36 - statistically. This penalizes him...why? </description>

		<description>&quot;Stop posting arguments that have COMPLETELY wrong facts! Never made it past the second round of the playoffs?! 
 
Steve Nash led the Suns to the NBA finals in EACH of his first TWO seasons as a Phoenix Sun.&quot; 
 
Steve Nash nor the Suns have made it to the NBA Finals since 1993. </description>

		<description>Heelllo grand text!
  Does any one use cheaper SMS message marketing services for a shop @ California than 12stores.com? They only cost nine dollars / thirty days which is not much, however my customer Pedro told me there is, but he could not remember its name. i totally start to get suspicion that he recalled wrongly.</description>

		<title>Comment on Point Guard: Most Overrated Position in Sports? by Sydney Sundial</title>

		<description>It depends on the context of the team, as I agree somewhat with the author of this article. Some teams, best go-to player, just happens to be their point guard, you can get opportunities for lesser players by being unselfish, but when crunch times come and defenses start to hunker down.  Some teams need a guy who can score, a bit easier than other teammates in the same situation.   
 
Others do much better with a player who will pass first and utilize the talents of other players, a little. While, some offenses in the case of Phil Jackson or Rick Adelman, simply needs a point guard who is unselfish and can hit open shots. There some teams in that paradigm that simply just need a guy to be role player that does not score alot or even get alot of assist.  
 
 
 
Besides, everyone knows a great center rules at the end of the day in basketball.  I&#039;ll even say a great scorer is more prominent in the grand scheme of things than a great, high assist point guard.  Think ... Dwayne Wade, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Michael Jordan, and etc.  Those type of players are going to want their hands on the ball more so than their team&#039;s point guard.  It&#039;s not always fathomable to have someone who can get 8 - 10+ assist.  </description>
