at this point you just have to happy for nash to be going to a playoff team.
the suns helped him out and nash is some ways helped the suns out with this trade.

looks like i'll be a laker fan for the duration Nash's contract.

Gnnr

I cant believe there are some serious haters up in here who think that Nash didn't want to go to LA.

You are delusional.

And I hate the Lakers, but I'm not ignorant.

Looks like NY missed out on yet another big time player and Brolosun is making excuses for the missfire with his moral victory delusions. It's sad but the NYK are officialy the Miami Dolphins of basketball. They make all the wrong moves and have to overpay people to go play for them and even then they missout more than they land them because of the horrible FO's track record. The Knicks look more and more screawed everyday, the Nets are slowly becoming NY's team...

Lets go Nets!!!

In other news, the Clippers gave up on Ray Allen so it's down to the Heat and Celtics. I give the Heat a 80% chance to land him. The only the that can stop it from happening is Failtic Pride....

i guess it doesn't even matter if the quotes are coming from Nash himself and it doesn't matter if you are Steve Nash. Your decision and whatever you say is wrong if you disagree. LOL.

Apparently, your children and everyone else related to you who isn't your ex-wife is no longer your family once you are divorced and philadelphia gets thrown into the conversation out of nowhere to make a point.

btw, it's just steve nash. i don't even know if it's worth all this effort to make a fuss over a guy who is going to be 39 heading into this season and 42 by the time he's done? he's going to help a team like the lakers compete, but not a team like toronto, dallas, or new york as currently constructed.

It’s funnier that people are flatly denying that LA was where he wanted to be… he was an unrestricted free agent and could have freely gone where in the hell ever he wanted to be. As a loyal person, he did not leave them with nothing in return and for that he should be commended. However, the first part of a sign-and-trade is that the player is in agreement to play for the team he is being traded to. It is as good a s free agent signing in that regard.
The Knicks might have had a chance, but never much of one, apparently

i think the person who really got screwed out of this is Grant Hill. He had suitors, but choose to stay by Nash's side and now Nash is gone.

it will be weird seeing nash in a lakers uniform, but he will help them. way more than fisher or sessions.

List of Delusional Statements:

Dwight Howard wanted to go to NY
CP3 wanted to go to NY not L.A
LBJ wanted to go NY thats why the decision was held so close to NYC
D-Will wanted to go to NY
Steve Nash didn't want to go to L.A, NY was where he wanted to go.
Kids don't count as family, once you're devorced you're Nowhere Man
Phil Jackson was a sure thing to NY
BD is the best PG in the NBA when healthy
The Heat are overrated and the Bricks are better
Melo>LBJ
Mike Woodson is the best choice for the Knicks at coach
Iso Melo works just fine... It did in Denver... Right?... Right?
Melo is a top 3 assist foward
Tyson Chandler deserved Defensive Player of the Year
The fire extinguisher hit Amar'e first, it was self defense
Every Youtube highlight film ever linked by Brolo
The Knicks are better than the Bulls
Everyone is wrong if they don't agree with Brolo, they are also bypolar, retarded, bros that are blind
Now we got Kidd and White who can play defense
Amar'e>Bosh

nash was becoming a poison pill. i basically jump off the boat ages ago when sun proposed a sign and trade. meaning he's letting the suns get some benefits. even though, he clearly stated on interviews, he loved to play for nyk.

grundwald is playing the game well and toronto thought they could cockblock.



now we got kidd and white. who can play defense.

FRpilot

you should continue adding to that list as time goes by. i didn't know it was that long but it's pretty accurate and I had a good laugh down memory lane reading all those statements said in the past.


EDIT: you should add this

Yeah I am

FRpilot

I would be too if I was from Toronto. could have had something exciting to watch since Vince Carter.

Sorry, Chris Bosh wasn't that exciting. Speaking of Chris Bosh, how do you torontians feel about him? I think it was pretty much given that he was leaving so it's not like he led your city on.

didn't you know new york has a secret Lazarus Pit that they paid Ra's al Ghul a large amount of money for? kidd of 10 years ago was one of the best defensive playmaking point guards of last generation and once new york brings him in he will regain that form. who needs german plasma therapy?

Glad you mentioned Vince. He was the last great number one that we had. Bosh was pushed HARD as being a leader of the team for a while, but he was not a number one player and it showed in his gameplay. We didn't have the best team, we fall apart in the forth. It's not like he had the ability to put the team on his back so that we can pull it out.

FRpilot

yea Vince was amazing back in his day even up to his New Jersey years. I remember him getting his shot at will with handling ability and in the post. Too bad he wasn't motivated to become a better player.

I remember Bosh making some game winning shots and 3 pointers, but he never seemed like the alpha dog type so i guess his lost wasn't as painful. i don't imagine people in canada burned his jersey the way they burned vince' jerseys.

Kidd was a good defender long ago. But with PG's faster than him, he struggles to keep up.

And Nash is trying to court Hill to go to the lakers...shall see where he lands.

-lin's a cash cow will pay itself.
-by the last yr amare will be unloaded. i'm hoping he gets traded.

if they dont match... grundwald maybe has something up his sleeves.

BOROSUN

most likely his mins will be limited by sharing mins. but, he can still defend.
they might looking for another 1/2 guy like foye, since smith and fields are out. makes more sense than just a backup 1. but, any of these guys i'll take in a heart beat...Scott Machado, Aaron Brooks, Ramon Sessions and Kirk Hinrich.

word sux

I doubt the knicks would let go of Lin

He puts asses in seats and moves merch, not only that but he brings them the Asian market.

Phlip

Funniest thing I have read all week...
Even funnier because he had JUST come up in one of the missions on Lego Batman 2 when I came back and read this

Ric Bucher confirmed on ESPN Kidd said he chose NY because he viewed more of a role for himself with a better roster around him. He also said he was interested in mentoring Jeremy Lin.

fliprayzin240sx

Jason Kidd and defense, he'll fit right in with the Knicks since they're so defensive minded.
