He missed three more 50-40-90s — once by a single free throw; once by seven shots and one three-pointer at age 36.

If you average his entire regular season career from 2001-2002 through 2010-2011 he averaged 16.7/10/3.3 on 49.7/43.6/91.0 just insane percentages for a decade. If you take 2001-2002 out the percentages go to 49.9/43.4/91.3 for a 9 year stretch. If you make it 2005-2011 you get 16.7/11.0/3.5 on 50.8/44.0/91.3 for a 7 year stretch. And if you use the 8 year stretch of his second run in Phoenix you get 16.3/10.9/3.4 on 51/44/91.
And Phoenix nash avged 20/11/4 on 50/39/91 in the playoffs for a total of 67 games which is basically another season. Also it hurts the overall numbers because it includes the first 2 bad years but if you use his 10 years in Phoenix rather than the 3 he was in Dallas, his career avges in phoenix are over 50/40/90 for a decade. He has a legit argument as the best offensive pg of all time.
