My respect for Nash just keeps growing.
If he keeps this up, I might just root for them IF they beat the Spurs.
He's taken a bloody nose, a knee to the groin, and a check by Horry. He stood up and took it like a man.
He even made light of it during the Sager interview and he hasn't bad-mouthed the Spurs as of yet (as far as I know).
Nash should give some lessons to Stoudamire on how to handle things.

He didn't take what Horry did like a man - he went after Horry like a little . Javie (big suprise on TD's foul calls?) had to hold him back ...
He doesn't let things going on in the court affect his actions and words outside of it.
Classy man.
I admire him as well. The guy takes it and just keeps on coming. He doesn't seem to be big on trash talk. He's always been a humble guy as far as I can tell. Hopefully he'll get a ring one day...just not this year.![]()
Eh, I do have to commend him for watching his comments post game.
good actor, give the man a oscar and tell him stfu and sit down
I don't care about a player's "class" unless he donates his time and money to causes.
Look at what Braylon Edwards of the Cleveland Browns is doing. He deserves some attention from the NFL for what he is doing.
At any moment now a Suns fan will come in here and blow such a generous thread.![]()
That Kelly Leak is a stand up Dude!!![]()
nash is classy. so are all the SPurs players.
Gotta give him props for that. But I think we have seen the same type of behavior our of Manu.
How many times has he been elbowed, swung at, kneed, poked in the eye, banged across the face? And he never says a word about it. Just gets up and starts dropping shots.
Why would we do such a thing? Nash is hilarious.
In the last series Odom committed a silly reach-around foul on Nash after a rebound. Odom gave him a big ol' bear hug. After Odom walked away, Nash flexed his biceps and kissed each one for the Suns bench to egg him on.
In last night's post-game interview, Sager asked Nash about what he was thinking about doing to Horry when he got up after the foul. Nash said something like, "Well, I've been working on my 'guns,' and I figured I could score some points on a few combos to the chest."
FWIW, Nash's charity approaches KJ levels. He's building a pediatric cardiology ward for a Paraguayan hospital out of his own pocket. He gets embarrassed when people ask him about, though. Most players are irritating with their self-adulating charitable contributions, but people like Nash and Duncan keep it real fo sheezy.
Nash is awesome... awesome player and classy as . That's why it sucks even more that Horry flattened him.
There's a lot more to respect about Steve Nash than just the way he's comported himself in this series.
im suprised more people arent worried about an on court reprocution by nash.
when you piss that guy off he usually KILLS.
Nash is as tough as they come. RESPECT!
I think we've seen his best game. Is he going to starting dunking now?
Nash is about the only respectable thing about the Phoenix Suns. Too bad his coach and the rest of his team are es who brought a must suspension on themselves.
Yeah you gotta love the guy, especially when he said he'd been working on his guns...
If amare and diaw are out..you havent seen his best game.
I especially love how 2 of the 3 injuries were self inflicted. Way to go!
Nash is has always been alright in my book. Dude is a class act
Did anyone else see Nash mock Duncan after the phantom call under the basket? Duncan threw his arms out like he does after a foul and then Nash did the same thing, which lead to Duncan giving him a few words as Nash walked to the line.
Great exchange, just wish it would have pissed Duncan off enough to score at the end of the game. Easy to say he choked, but he had to feel like if he touched anyone he would get his 6th foul, makes it hard to be Duncan when he can't touch anyone.
