But, the guy is also one of the biggest defensive liabilities there ever was. I can't even imagine what his defense will look like in a couple more yrs.

Wouldn't an older, bench-player nash be similar to what Steve Kerr used to do with the Spurs (defense-wise)?

WRONG. At least they try. Nash makes no attempt to cover his man. If you ever want to see Steve Nash's defensive career in a nutshell, watch Q4 of Game 6 vs. Dallas 2003. Even Nellie was pissed off at him for continually leaving Kerr.

He would have to make more of an effort at d, if he wanted to see much time on the court.


:nope

He'll proboully stay in PHX for the rest of his career.

Thread raises an interesting and legitimate question: Is Nash good enough at defense that he could serve as Tony's back-up. Certainly, it would be Nash's best chance at a ring.

:lobt:

if you guys mean Nash at the end of his career, then sure..but Nash is way too good to come play a BACKUP role right now..

his defense wouldn't be a problem..we get away with Finley playing significant minutes, and he might be the worst perimeter defender in the NBA..

You could basically sub Nash for Finley and you'd have about the same defense.

But not the same paycheck or offense.

If Nash wants a ring, that might be a good move for him.
