Nash would be better w/ Knicks or mavs. No point in lakers having Nash w/ no pass Bryant on that team.
@AlexKennedyNBA: Let's not forget, Steve Nash was recently quoted as saying, "For me, it would be hard to put on a Lakers jersey. That’s just the way it is."
Great news if true. Lin stays in NY. Lakers stay relevant, but still aren't better than OKC. Houston dodged another atrocious contract.
How accurate is that? Plus, Nash lives in NYC so why would being close to Phoenix matter? Edit Marc Stein @ESPNSteinLine Just going up online & via SportsCenter: Sources say Suns have consented to sign-and-trade Steve Nash to Lakers for package of future picks

He's not going to LA b/c of Kobe. I'm just happy Lakers are doing all of this to stay relevant, but won't win. And we dodged a bullet w/ the Lin contract. Ugh. Chris Mannix @ChrisMannixSI Something tells me Steve Nash masterly orchestrated this whole thing. Played everyone to get to preferred destination, LA.
You're the biggest Laker fan on this board and you don't know? Source close to Dwight Howard on why he’s leaning away from the Los Angeles Lakers: “Kobe messed it up. That’s all I can say for now.” Sat Feb 04 05:11:40 via Twitter for BlackBerry® Alex Kennedy AlexKennedyNBA Apparently, Kobe talked to Dwight over the phone and refused to concede the #1 option on offense to Dwight.
Mike Prada: Time for this one to be vetoed for "basketball reasons," right? Michael Dugat: Also, if Nash doesn't go to Knicks, hard to envision them not matching any Lin deal.
