Nash Doesn't Plan On Retiring Soon


Oct 06, 2008 10:05 AM EST
Suns' guard Steve Nash doesn't plan on retiring anytime soon despite being a few months shy of his 35th birthday.

Nash, who has a team option for next season, said he knows he wants to play two more seasons beyond his current contract, which would take him through the 2011-12 season and his 38th birthday.

"I know I want to play four more years. That’s my goal, to sign another two-year contract. After that, I’ll evaluate where I am and how I feel," Nash said. "I know I feel great right now, and I think I have a lot left."

He also said his preference would be to finish his career in Phoenix.

"My number one priority would be to stay here, but I’ll think more about that when the time comes," Nash added.

I don't know, I thought I saw Nash "slowing down" a bit last year. At times he still looked like his dynamic self but there were times when he looked kind of "old" imo. But Im not sure if it was his age or maybe because of the Shaq Trade?

sounds like he might want to leave Phoenix. Nash wants to win. Ive heard him say hes always wanted to play with Garnett or Duncan.

i wouldnt mind seeing Nash come off the Spurs bench at age 38....

Nash & Dirk can reunite with the Spurs as they try to win one more and do what the 04 Lakers failed to do.

Hope he stays in Phoenix. He'd make no sense in SA with Parker there, but Boston on the other hand...

intense goal, he could probably do it but half of that might be on the bench.
