Steve Nash's 2005 time?

[edit]

Okay, sources on Steve Nash's time are inconsistent. I've read a few articles that say his time was 25.4, and others that say his time was 25.8, and I've even seen one that said it was 25.7. Most of these articles seemed pretty professional (as far as Internet and Newpaper articles go), but the most compelling source in my opinion is video evidence. I could only find one video of Steve Nash's run, and it was on youtube.com, and it posted a time of 25.8. Also, of all of the video highlights that stated the event record since 2005, all of them had a record time of 25.8. As far as I know, there is no video highlight that disputes the time of 25.8, which would make Deron Williams run of 25.5 the event record. What do you guys think? --67.182.196.160 (talk) 05:59, 8 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This Youtube video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxyIVmYjBrE) shows Nash clocking 31.4 and 25.8 seconds in the 2005 skills challenge.

This Youtube video of the 2008 skills challenge (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDNjSfdknTE) (Before Deron's new record) shows the record as 25.8 while Kidd is going. 97.126.223.233 (talk) 04:33, 3 February 2010 (UTC)LunaticWolf[reply]

Unfortunately, Youtube cannot be used as a source. I personally have not seen news sources that indicate this discrepancy. But if there are, please list them here and then we can note that in the article.—Chris!c/t 05:42, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/allstar2008/news/story?id=3249672 This ESPN article says Deron Williams sets the new record. 97.126.223.233 (talk) 06:39, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Recent NBA.com article regarding Skills challenge 2010 indicates "Deron will be defending his record" implying that Nash doesn't have the record and his time is 25.8 and not 25.4. Check reference in the wiki. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Desai (talk • contribs) 16:42, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
