Phoenix Suns Close To Making Steve Nash Available
Steve Nash is one of the greatest point guards of all time and one of the best players the Phoenix Suns have ever had. But as the Indianapolis Colts are learning sometimes it’s just better to part ways and pursue another path which is exactly what the Phoenix Suns are very close to doing. According to a report by Sam Amick of SI.com (per RealGM.com) the Phoenix Suns are extremely...

“Steve Nash is getting old” is getting old
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYzJXL_UBqM
It’s become a ritual. A certainty. A phrase no play-by-play or color commentator can pass up.
“Steve Nash, at [however many] years old…”
It’s a back-handed compliment that doubles as a built-in excuse for when Nash’s play, someday, finally does drop off. Until that happens, his age will be flaunted...

Nash trade partners hard to come by
We seem to have reached the point of greatest return in trade-projection exercises co-starring the Phoenix Suns and Steve Nash.
For the record, I expect the Suns to embrace the recent Nash-provoked victory salvo -- now hiking their record to a robust 11-14 -- and swing for the fringes of the NBA's Western Conference playoff roster.
And it's highly possible that these player...

Suns notebook: Nash downplays assist mark
When he was drafted by the Phoenix Suns in 1996, Steve Nash was the No. 3 point guard behind Kevin Johnson and Jason Kidd. Wednesday night in New Orleans, the two-time MVP moved to the top of the franchise's all-time point guard list in record-breaking fashion.
Two days after a thigh bruise made it impossible for him to run, Nash ran the New Orleans Hornets into submission with...

Nash joins in on the "Lin-sanity"
Has everyone found their seat? Yeah, there is not much room left, I know. We are going to have to get a bigger bandwagon for Jeremy Lin. This guy has been the talk of the town for the last week, and for good reason. It is like Tim Tebow all over again, except the guy is actually good at his respective sport (yeah, I said it).
Lin is getting praise from everywhere -- sports writers...

NBA Trades: New York Knicks Need to Look at Steve Nash
Anyone who has watched the Knicks lately, can see that this is a team on the brink of failure. They’ve looked somewhat respectable up to the end of games, but just can’t quite pull out a tough victory. The season is not yet lost, but a few more weeks of losing, could spell the end of 2012 for the Knicks. The expectations are high in New York, as always, but especially...

Tuesday was Steve Nash's 38th birthday, and he celebrated with his Phoenix Suns teammates during morning meetings while on the road in Milwaukee. The Suns gave Nash a birthday surprise...with a singing purple gorilla.
The Suns also gave Nash a balloon. However, since Nash is health conscious, there was no cake, which disappointed some teammates.

Suns take road win streak to Oakland
The Phoenix Suns are carrying plenty of positive momentum into their first back-to-back-to-back stretch of the season.
A matchup with Golden State wouldn't seem likely to slow them down, but the Warriors are also playing quality basketball right now.
Phoenix looks to extend its road winning streak to four and defeat Golden State for a 12th time in the last 13 meetings Monday...

Phoenix Suns’ record won’t allow multiple All-Stars, so who’s in?

The fact that Phoenix is winning less than Utah, Cleveland and Minnesota isn’t Steve Nash’s fault. Or Marcin Gortat’s for that matter.
Fact is, the Suns’ pick-and-roll partners are both playing well enough to merit All-Star consideration, but aren’t necessarily locks for Orlando. Nash made the cut on ESPN.com...

Yet another sure sign that Mike D’Antoni completely sucks and all credit should be given to Steve Nash. Does anyone even think about the fact that Nash is 38 years old? Yes, 38.
