Have you noticed most offensive based teams in the NBA, especially superior offensive, can amount many wins during the regular season with little attention to defense.
Examples...Dallas with Nash and Dirk
Phoenix
Golden State
Denver
All of these teams were offensive juggernauts...stats are gaudy and wins come along with the territory because of good point guards who control the up tempo offenses...
Its a recipe for regular season success...
If you are saying Nash is better because of that recipe then maybe Tony Parker should be given a chance to run one of those type of teams.
I think Nash's stats have been helped tremendously by never having to worry about his own defense and playing in those type of offenses. Tony Parker has been in the opposite situation so his stats look worse.
Pound for Pound, Tony Parker is the better PG.

The thing is, Tony Parker can't run a team.
