    Steve Nash To Super Team Heat?

    Phoenix Suns point guard Steve Nash, one of the top free agents this summer, joined the Dan Patrick Show this afternoon and made some comments that made ripples around the league.

    "I'm not coming back to the Suns if there isn't improvement," Nash told Patrick.

    The hypothetical of LeBron James asking Nash to join up in Miami for one last push at a championship was brought up.

    "I would listen," Nash said. "He's phenomenal. I love what they're doing there. A lot of people don't like them because they put all that talent there. But they're professional, they play hard, they play together. Their coaching staff has done a great job, so I have a tremendous amount of respect for them.

    "I would definitely listen."

    Might fit in there. He can definitely knock down the open shot which he's be getting with the double teams on James and Wade. But he is a big time defensive liability. If they faced the Spurs he would have sit all the minutes Parker plays.

    not that good of a fit because of defense and will take the ball out of Lebron and Wades hands but he is a great shooter so would get more open looks than usual with those guys

    He either wants the ring or is using this as leverage to get the suns to offer him more money.

    I really would like as a Canuck to see Nash go to the Crapters for his final season or two...

    Comon guys. this is about a last push at a championship ring and where better than heat? Fisher went to OKC nash if anything deserves this! Yes a liability at times but his #1 assist leader this year and has been for many years. With the addition of turiaf they kinda solved their interior problem this just gives them extra options plus the added experience of nash.

    Would be nice, but from Canadian to Canadian I think he deserves better than the craptors

    After they lose again this season, they'll be begging for him.

    nash would be open alot , he gets beat up, but if miami wins one this year, they might not need him

    I still say centers and pg's win championships, even jordan's team needed help there to win

    I see him going to Dallas, they have cap space, and he can replace Kidd. Not to mention the history he has there.. and friendship with Dirk

    You're forgetting Deron Williams is 90% to go to Dallas.

    I pray he doesn't go to the Heat. I may jump off a bridge.

    Steve Nash would be badass with Miami. Dudes a career professional with assist. Could you imagine Lebron with someone like Nash able to do "magic bullet" passes to him in the paint. Would be sick.
