Not seeing where Nash said he wouldn't want to play with Lakers. Sounded like it would be tough, but he'd explore all options.

I do find it weird that someone connected to Phoenix said they didn't think they could get Iman, so they decided to go with the Lakers offer. Wasn't the exact wording, much less certain. Seemed to me that the Suns just wanted to make Nash happy, which is a stupid way to run a franchise. Oh well, whatever.Comment

Re: NBA Movement Central 2012 (Updates 1st PG)
Excerpt from Steve Nash's statement after the trade:
After talking with (owner) Robert (Sarver) and (president of basketball operations) Lon (Babby) we've agreed that it's time for both of us to move in new directions. I approached them and asked if they would be willing to do a sign and trade deal with L.A. because it is very important to me to stay near my children and family.
They were very apprehensive and didn't want to do it. Fortunately for me, they reconsidered. They saw that they were able to get assets for their team that will make them better, assets they would not have otherwise had and it made sense for them to do a deal that helps their team get better.
I couldn't be more grateful to the organization and Robert in particular. I know how hard this was for him and that fact that he was able to help me and my family in this way ... it means a lot and says a lot about his character. I will never forget this gesture. Above and beyond.Comment

Almost none. Slow, lazy, no basketball skills. There is nothing about Thabeet that suggests he could ever play organized basketball other than he is really tall, kind of athletic and uh...that's about it.Too Old To Game Club
Urban Meyer is lol.Comment

"The truth is I'm a bit old school. For me, it would be hard to put on a Lakers jersey. That's just the way it is," Nash said. "You play against them so many times in the playoffs, and I just use them as an example, and I have the utmost respect for them and their organization.
"I kind of have that tendency (to try to beat the best teams), so it is strange, but as a free agent you're free to go where you want, so I'd have to consider everything regardless of the past or the future.""Twelve at-bats is a pretty decent sample size." - Eric ByrnesComment

Nash will put pressure on the opposing defense as well, not like in the past with Fish, Blake and Sessions. His D will be an issue, but the gain offensively outweighs the negative on defense.Comment
