Steve Nash recently made some interesting comments on two all-time offensive talents – Kyrie Irving and Allen Iverson. While heaping praise on Irving since he's his point guard on the Brooklyn Nets, Nash definitely upset part of NBA Twitter with his comments on Irving and Iverson.

The drama began earlier this week when Nash was asked to compare Irving and Iverson as players. Nash, who is a legendary point guard in his own right, uttered that Iverson was special but Irving is more efficient on the court.

Of course, Nash had plenty of battles with Iverson during their legendary careers in the NBA. However, Nash seems to believe that Irving is the better player despite the respect that Iverson has garnered over his storied NBA career. Twitter was quick to react to the coach's hot take:

During his 14-year career in the NBA, Iverson would average an impressive 26.7 points and 6.2 assists per game. Iverson would also finish his career with a 42.5 shooting percentage from the floor and he would shoot 31.3 percent from outside the arc.

On the other hand, Irving is currently averaging 22.6 points and 5.7 assists per game in his career. The Duke product is also shooting 46.8 percent from the field and 39.1 percent from three-point range, which are both more efficient numbers than Iverson. But of course, impact goes way beyond raw numbers.

Both Irving and Iverson have been compared to one another throughout the years due to their impressive handles when they have the ball in their hands. But with Nash recently claiming that Irving is better than Iverson in multiple facets of their game, NBA Twitter isn't letting the Nets coach off of the hook.
