Another major change for Nash comes in the systems run by former coach Alvin Gentry in Phoenix and new coach Mike Brown in Los Angeles. Brown's teams typically have featured more structure and set play calling.
Nash believes with time, he and Brown can find the right balance.
"First of all, he's the coach and I want to do what he asks. But I spoke to him and I think he'll be open to ideas and thoughts, and working together. That's the great part about the job, is that we all get to work together and find a way to make each other better and find a way to put each other in position to succeed," he said. "I look forward to working with him with the offense, and seeing how I can hopefully help the offense run more efficiently and help those guys maybe get a little more space on the floor, maybe get a few more opportunities to get easy baskets and put pressure on the defense."
