Nash now has a permanent place in my nightmares.
Uh.... he whines quite a bit on the court.
and he pushes off with his off arm on every drive to the basket.
all spurs do that tooQuote:

Nash's gotta be one of the best over 30 players of all time.
Unfortunately, he's the only person on our team (coach included) who doesn't have his head permanently lodged in his ass.
Nash has my respect. He is the only Sun that does.
YOU have more sense than many of the stupid Spurs posters here !! BUT Nash still should've gotten two techincals during this game. The Spurs damn sure would've.Quote:

I respect Nash. He's a great guy, a warrior on the court, and he has tons of heart and determination. Too bad he'll never win a championship in Phoenix, he's a great player and he certainly deserves it.
Fact that the game has refs to officiate it, why you hold Nash responsible for the noncalling by the refs ?Quote:

I agree. Except for his habit of jumping into defenders, he's amazing. Almost made a sequel to game 4. As much as we've bashed him (esp. with images), he has my respect. As a measure of my respect, I will not doctor any more images of Nash...at least for a long time.
I hope she's hot.
The Suns should ditch D'Antoni and make Nash player-coach.Quote:

they guy is all about team play, winning, and sportsmanship.
He's running out of time (he's 34) and this Suns team will likely not look the same come October.Quote:

Heidie Fleiss played his nuts off again. Better luck next year.
That little gnat didn't want to go away. Thank God for Barbosa's chokejob.
in a couple of years Nash will have to come to the spurs for a low contract, be prime Tony's luxury back up, then he will have the ring he so much deserves.
Ditto...Nash is $$$...every time he jacked up a 3, you knew it was gonna go...that guy just DOES NOT FUCKING MISS!Quote:

He have my respect although I won't promess to stop making funny pictures with his funny face.
Where was Nash all game? He hit some shots in the 4th but they were out of desperation...
I think this loss is on his shoulders. Full credit to Bowen who showed how much of a joke the DPOY voting was. But Nash needed to take over earlier and look for his own shot.
And yes, Nash is a great person, but what does that have to do with Basketball?
GO SPURS, BYE SUNS.
Um, I think a lot of people did... :wtfQuote:

Much respect, Steve Nash...
I just had a flashback - I was in Phoenix in Feb and went to a game wearing my Spurs jersey. I was talking to some Suns fans who were saying they thought it might be their year, and the way we were playing at the time I had to agree with them. Then one of them turned to me and said, "You guys scare me though... every year you seem to stand in our way." I just smiled and said nothing. How right he was! :lol
I have to agree he's a class act!

If only he had teammates, or a coach.
Respect to Nash.
You can answer that for us. Both are equally important to their respective teams, and deserve tonnes of respect. :clapQuote:

just an incredibly talented player. I don't think I ever saw him make the wrong decision (he might've fucked up a couple times executing that decision). So smart, so talented (amare misses out on one of those last two things).
The Suns have a lot of offensively talented players, and great athletes that should be very good defenders. Next time D'Antoni states that the Suns are the more talented team, he should immediately follow it up with "but our coaching sucks."
An 8th seed at best.Quote:

He's on the post-game interview right now, whining about Game 5...over and over.
Fuck him. I can admit that he has game, but forget about having class. At least Amare Stoudamire was a man in the interview.
Well said, Extra Stout.
Oh, so you learned from calling the game over in game 4 half way through the 4th? Good for you. :rolleyesQuote:

The game he played tonight was unreal.
The pass he made in the second quarter to Stoudamire, wrapping it around Duncan and jumping between duncan and Finley, was the most amazing pass I'd ever seen.
Nash is a hell of a player.
If the Suns were smart, they would hire Jeff Van Gundy.
That would be the worst decision they could make. Van Gundy would turn them into something they're not. Now...if they hire him, with D'antoni kept as an assistant (or "right-hand man" coach), it might work out. D'antoni seems more suited to be an assistant coach anyways (he'll have a high salary though, for an assistant).Quote:

JVG would do a great job in installing defensive scheme & mentality to this Suns team. Nash is already the Suns's brain in offense, so i think he would be smart enough to not interfere there.
If they could prey Camby by using Barbosa + pick as the trade bait, and getting JVG as the coach, they could turn into a darn good, balanced team IMHO.
This isn't news to some of you, I'm sure, but as good as you thought Nash played this series, it was nothing compared to what we've seen from him this season (and yes, I give the credit to Bowen for that -- the defensive MVP of the series, if you ask me). You should see how the guy plays against lesser defenses.
nash has 2 years left
why did not nash take over in the third?
that is when his team needed him
the fourth it was to late
I agree with youQuote:

Nash is awesome, his will to win is the most respectful aspect of his game, and that is really saying something.
I also loved the way Kurt Thomas and Raja Bell played, a little chippy sometimes, but they seem to know that it's the playoffs.
nash problem
duncans prime is now
I was thinking the same until I saw the postgame interview. :dramaqueeQuote:

He whined like a bitch all game tonight and then whined some more in the postgame.
My hat stays on my head :lol
My shoe is in my mouth. I was completely wrong. He's a fucking bitch. Should have known not to give anybody in that organization a lick of credit.Quote:

Bowen went off on Nash the last two games. Man, How many turnovers did Nash have? Where was he for the first three quarters?
What's wrong with giving props? People are allowed to admire the competition..Quote:

Who cares what he said in the post-interview. His seasons over. It's equivalent to holding him to a standardized "correct answer" big deal, and reserving respect to the bar that's arbitrarily set.
It's not like we're "eating our words" from this thread, just because he showed he was human. No one was painting him like a saint, the guy went down swinging as a leader.
And I'll say this: if Nash really did think the Suns were cheated by the NBA, then he has my respect for not saying anything about it until after the series was over.
Game 6 and the Suns lose....And all I saw all game long was Nash complain...He may represent himself better off the court and with the media but i an can not be the only person that catches his subtle insults all the time...He is a very good player and seemingly a good guy for the most part...But I will not say anything other than that in the good column for him...he is a whiner deluxe....and he does make some dirty moves....but it doesnt matter anymore...they get to go home tonight and I dont see Nash Having many more seasons left in him like the last 3...
AMEN!! I don't mind the bitching at the end, in fact, it is a BITCH when your season ends, so why not be a bitch along with that fact? :lol The point is Nash didn't whine nearly half as much as his girlfriends during the series. Props for playing like a man, and taking it like one as well.Quote:

Nash just keeps getting worse and worse.
I lost a lot of respect for Nash. Everyone who calls him a superstar and the best player in the NBA seems to conveniently forget that the basketball court has two nets. He gets protected for his abysmal defense more than any superstar ever, getting to just hide in the corner on Bruce all day.
I wish we could do Game 5 over again, and we'll make a deal with them. We'll let you guys play with Amare and Diaw, but you gotta let Nash cover Tony or Manu all night. Maybe when he gets burned for his 48th consecutive lay-up somebody will realize that a real NBA star plays both ends.
I'm guessing your hat is also staying on your head?Quote:

Magic was a better point guard than nash before the end of his rookie season, but only because Magic was the starting center in game seven of the finals. By the way he dropped 42 points, 15 boards and seven assists if I'm not mistaken.Quote:

I think Nash needs to learn to just let it go. I think he forgot you can't argue with things beyond your control, which he was doing. Amare and Nash reversed roles. Amare whined early. Nash kept a cool head in every single one of his post-conference interviews and kept it bottled up -- til' he kept going back to the damn suspension thing over and over.
Obviously when he said "I dislike sayin, 'oh we'll get it next year. we'll work harder' " he wanted it now. Too bad. Anyway, all this asterisk talk will get buried anyway.
Nash was incredible in this series, I'm not afraid to give props to him. I think some of the homers should recognize that just because someone plays against your team, it doesn't mean they're the reincarnation of Hitler.
I'm not gonna dis Nash for whining last night. Tim whines a lot too in games that are much less crucial.
Nash probably saw his best chance at a championship disappearing in the third quarter.
Meanwhile, you have to respect him as a premiere PG and clutch shooter and 'game' down to his core.
Nash is a great player but he lost my respect with his whining on the podium in the post-game interview with the media!
He was kind of a bitch this last game. I dont want to hear anyone in Phoenix ever speak of Duncan whining again.
But he was clutch in a few games.
