Wow. Didn't see that one coming at all. So glad to see Nash get out of Phoenix. Definitely one of those guys you hope to see win a title before he's done.
The Lakers gave up four draft picks for Nash. :fp:
Damn I hope this deal doesn't go through.
I wouldn't be surprised if Howard somehow ends up there too.
Let's face it, Nash is old... But he had some terrific years with a lackluster roster besides Amare. They were close
I know In Lakerland it's sport to rip Gasol, but he's pretty talented and last I checked he was never that nasty post player ever in his career. Plus Bynum, Kobe etc.... Nash will be in assist heaven. I can't remember the last time lakers had a true PG like this, Magic??
It might get u a shot.... And Lakers aren't about draft picks

Nash is pretty old, but the guy takes incredible care of his body. He still averaged 13 pts, 10 assists with a shitty supporting cast in Phoenix last year. It should be interesting to see how him and Kobe play together...this will be great for Kobe since he won't have to handle the ball as much now that he has an actual PG.

I am a diehard Nets fan but I have been expecting Howard to end up with the Lakers for quite some time now. However, someone tweeted last night that LA is not going to get rid of Gasol or Bynum.
This is spot on. I think it's a good deal for the Lakers. Their draft picks don't mean anything. The last draft pick they had that was relevant and is still in their favor was 7 years ago with Bynum.
Sure, Nash is up there in age but has anyone been watching the guy play the past few years? He is playing younger than he actually is, and the Lakers offense won't be relying on him to score as much as Phoenix's may have been. He's got a perfect opportunity to play a great facilitator and feed guys that certainly can score (Bynum, Gasol, Bryant).
As much as I am not a Laker fan, they should be an entertaining team to watch this coming season.

Yeah 81 Nick the Quick was pretty good. i liked his swagger both in nba and especially at Cinci. That Laker team with him, eddie jones, cambell etc was pretty exciting. Didnt win shit, but I liked them as a team
anyone else secretly hoping that David Stern vetoes this deal just because?
It almost seems like he needs to because of what he did with the CP3 trade.
Stern is an assclown.

I like the Kidd move. He'll be playing 18-22 mins a game off the bench, and will be great in that role.
Now go match Lin's offer, sign Camby with the tax payers MLE, sign Pietrus to the vets min because he's probably the best guy out there to fill Shump's shoes defensively until he comes back, and add a scorer for some depth like Willie Green or Randy Foye.

Because he wants to play with the other asshole that thinks they should get paid to play in the Olympics.
I lost some respect when he said that. Now this. No longer my favorite player.
Didn't Wade say he's not playing in the Olympics?

Sheeeet. It's a business. That team is going to be fun to watch. I know we as fans like loyalty and nostalgia, but it's business and he did what is best for him. He's going to have a lot of fun on that team with those motherfuckers driving and drawing double teams.
Even though he was on Boston, I have always like Ray Allen just because of He Got Game.
People are gonna have to accept the Heat sooner or later.
People are gonna have to accept the Heat sooner or later.
You think? People have been saying that since the Finals, and I won't disagree that they are primed to win more. But just look at the team they just beat. In a few years Durant will be the unquestionable best player in the league and Westbrook will have hopefully grown up. The east is starting to get pretty hairy looking and alot of teams are looking to the Big 3 blueprint as the recipe for success, so any team with money or good management could get good fast.

If this were about business, he would have stayed with Boston. They offered him double what the Heat will be paying him. He obviously thinks the Heat give him the best chance to win a title. And apparently he was bitter Boston tried to trade him this past season.
But fuck, the Heat are going to be tough next year. D-Rose out most of the year and I don't see anyone else in the East challenging them.
With the addition of Ray Allen aka Jesus Shuttleworth...The Heat Just got better. If they were hated before this pick up will probably bring out more haters. The City of Miami should start planning another parade for next June. Might as well plan a few. Lets Go Heat!
Jazz should definitely attempt to sign-and-trade CJ. Don't let him just walk away. he didn't do shit for the Jazz in the past two seasons, but he could help another team. I think the scenario of Jason Richardson is more promising though.
