Fading Sun?


I'm torn.

Steve Nash is one of my favorite athletes of all time. He's hilarious, incredibly talented, supremely intelligent, very classy, well spoken, and has defied all the odds to become one of the most respected players in the league. I feel honored to have had him on my team the past 8 years.

So what happens now that he is becoming a free agent? He's been quoted recently saying he will leave Phoenix if they do not make improvements and showed interest in playing with the Heat.

Obviously I would like him to stay but I understand completely should he decide to leave. The only thing he lacks is a championship and the Suns, at this point in time, don't have a real shot at giving that to him. He has preserved himself incredibly for his age, but let's be honest; his time is fading.

Does he take less money and pursue a championship while "selling out" to the hometown fans? Or does he cap off an amazing career by getting paid and "going down with the ship" (without a 'Ship...)

Normally I would have a strong opinion about a matter just as this but this time its different.

Steve should do whatever Steve wants to do.

He deserves it. In the end, that's what's going to happen anyways.

I will always root for Steve Nash no matter what he decides.
