This fucking sucks so goddamn much. Why Nash? Why? Any Team other than the Lakers or Spurs. I'm gonna go drink myself silly and go vomit for the rest of the night and hope this is just a bad dream.
 
The last time Lakers said, "Fuck the world!!!"

Sources told ESPN.com that Nash will try to convince longtime teammate Grant Hill, one of his closest friends in the game, to join him with the Lakers. ESPN The Magazine's Ric Bucher reported over the weekend the Lakers were one of four teams (along with Toronto, New York and Phoenix) in the running for Hill after the 39-year-old's recent trip to Germany to undergo the same platelet-enrichment treatment on his knee that Bryant credited for his rejuvenated knee last season.

As I understand it: Suns were adamant they would NOT do deal without two firsts and two seconds. But once Lakers put that much up ...

Marc Stein ‏@ESPNSteinLine
Nash appealed to Suns management to send him to lone suitor of four finalists that could keep him in title hunt & within hour flight of kids
 
So....the Lakers have trouble defending athletic point guards (Westbrook, Parker, Paul) and they decide the best way to combat that is to....sign 38 year old Steve Nash and give up 4 picks?

Actually, who had the worst defense last year between Nash, Sessions, and Fisher?
 
I mean, Nash is great on offense but do the Lakers really need to be getting OLDER right now? Definitely having Shaq/Kobe/Malone/Payton flashbacks.

Old Snake only has so many nanomachines to go around.

With short flight to kids, chance to play with Kobe, Pau & Bynum, Duffy says Nash wanted to be a Laker when it was a real option 2 days ago.

It's like Duffy is personally giving Black Mamba trolling material.

Well we've had no pg D AND no offense for a decade now. Might as well have one aspect lol

My initial thinking is that they are going to run and outscore people when Nash is on the floor.

idk what the Lakers run, is it still a modified triangle offense.
 
If they get D12 too, do the Thunder even have a chance at beating them? I mean, short of going into NBA 2K Hall of Fame mode from Games 3-6 of last year's WCF?

Nice. Now we can sign Felton and Camby and get just as far. Nash would have have been nice for entertainment purposes but im not gonna delude myself into thinking he was gonna get us out for the 2nd round. Hopefully management doesn't think of some other dumbass way to give away all our depth...

What awful news. The Mavericks are so fucked. They might as well just not play next season and save the wear and tear on Dirk's body.

Essentially. I was more excited about getting shump back then a bunch of late first rounders.

Let's see how many points those guys can score when they actually have to Guard out PG too. I'm okay with Old Nash cos he's not a guy who dominates with athleticism
