Steve Nash...Dallas Mavericks...he is SO the bomb.
Had sorta fallen away from my love of NBA...it was a case of dated Dean, dissed the NBA for political programming, had a let down when Dean dropped out and now the NBA and I are cozy once more. Sorry Howard, you will always have a special place in my heart...but you are out of the game so to speak, and the Mavs are so in the game. They lead Sacramento Kings in the 3rd quarter and Steve just made a killer 3 point shot as I typed that last sentence. Woohoo!
I used to be all about John Stockton...another one who was the epitome of hustle as well as honesty and integrity. I cried the day he resigned. He did so at the right time and for the right reasons and far be it from me to deny him a chance at happiness with his family. It's just that Stockton was what basketball SHOULD be about. Skills, discipline, love of the game instead of love of the fame. I still admire Stockton to this day.
And now Steve has moved up to my #1 guy in the NBA. Hope the Mavs make it to the playoffs...they are currently in 6th place. Loved watching Steve and Co in the playoffs last year altho those West Coast playoff games are murder when you live on the East Coast. But you struggle through it and try to stay awake and hope and pray your guys have what it takes to go the distance. Ok, enough cliches for now.
Steve's taking a rest on the bench. Time for me to do the same.
I LOVE THIS GAME!
