The Steve Nash era has set in Phoenix and now, Nash has joined the Suns' pacific division rivals, the Los Angeles Lakers. Nash signed for three years, presumably the last stop of his career... or is it?

I am intrigued by this "Showtime" vision by Mike D'Antoni. He wants an free flowing uptempo push by the Lakers. They have the master mind for it in Nash. Lakers have not seen anyone with this passing since the days of Magic Johnson and his original showtime crew.

For one, D'Antoni and Nash are a working tandem as Nash is the catalysts of D'Antoni's seven seconds or less offense back in Phoenix.

Since Howard, Gasol and Hill are out it means more playing time for Robert Sacre. Nash to Sacre plays.
