Who was a flashier passer? Jason Kidd or Steve Nash

Nash to me the way he'd dribble around near the paint and just throw some crazy pass.

I think Nash was a better off the dribble passer — and those often look sexier. The seamless dribble into the behind the back, or whatever. I found that Kidd usually picks up the ball with two hands before making the pass which makes it look a little less flashy

I actually thought that made it look more dramatic. Like, he'd pick the ball up, pause, and then float it up and place it perfectly so Martin or Carter could go up and catch this ball that seemed to just hang 12 feet off the planet. I loved that.

Totally subjective thread, but going Kidd for flash.
